Sheriff Operations has recently undergone a reorganization of the reporting structure for the Legal Office Assistants (LOAs) in the Civil Division, Coroner's Office, McKinleyville substation and Garberville substation. Previously, only the Records Division LOA's reported to the Legal Office Services Supervisor and the other LOA's reported to a Sergeant or Lieutenant. Aligning all LOAs under one manager will improve coverage, service, efficiency, and succession planning for all these divisions. See attached organization charts for a before and after visual of the organization re-structure (Attachment 1).

As part of the reorganization, the scope of responsibilities has increased for the Legal Office Services Supervisor Melva Paris. Previously Mrs. Paris was responsible for four staff and the Records Division. The reorganization has increased the number of staff she oversees to eight and has added the responsibilities of front-office coverage, workflow and records maintenance in the Civil Division, Coroner's Office, and the two substations. The Sheriff's Office requested Human Resources to review the change of duties and recommend any necessary reclassification.
