Body

 

SOURCE OF FUNDING                     

General Fund (1100)

 

DISCUSSION:

Municipal Resource Group (MRG), a human resources consulting agency, conducted a classification review of the Board of Supervisors Department and makes the following recommendations:

 

                     Retitle Administrative Assistant/Deputy Clerk of the Board II and III to Board Services Specialist I and II with no change in salary; the classifications will remain at salary ranges 432 and 452, respectively. Classify Brooke Eberhardt and Nicole Turner as Board Services Specialist II.

                     Create a new Senior Board Services Specialist classification at salary range 472, which is 10% above Board Services Specialist II. Reclassify Tracy Damico to Senior Board Services Specialist in accordance with the County’s rules, policies, and resolutions.

                     Retitle Administrative Support Manager of the Board of Supervisors/Clerk of the Board (salary range 480) to Board Services Manager/Clerk of the Board (salary range 502). Salary range 502 is 15% above the proposed salary range for Senior Board Services Specialist and is an 11% salary increase for the classification.

                     Eliminate the Administrative Assistant/Deputy Clerk of the Board I level/classification.

Narrative Explanation of Financial Impact:

Salary and benefit expenditures related to the reclassification of personnel in the Board of Supervisors (BOS) department is projected to cost an additional $24,289.55 for salary and benefits in FY 2023-24. Given the Board direction that personnel actions must be net neutral, these expenditures will be accommodated through salary savings related to the retirement of a long-term employee that was not anticipated in the adopted budget in Fund 1100, Budget Unit 101 - Board of Supervisors for fiscal year (FY) 2023-24. The position being vacated through retirement will be held vacant for a minimum of 2 months in order to provide sufficient salary and benefit savings estimated at $27,596.

 

The FY 2024-25 salary and benefit expenditure increases related to the reclassification of personnel in the BOS department, are projected at $28,418.97 and will be accommodated through salary and benefit savings related to filling of the previously referenced position at a lower pay step. In consideration of presumably the highest-cost scenario in which the position and future positions are filled internally, and therefore at higher steps than the lowest step of 1A, the salary and benefit savings is estimated to be at minimum $39,839, sufficient to be a net neutral action for FY 2024-25.
