RECOMMENDATION(S):
Recommendation
That the Board of Supervisors:
1. Approve the extension of extra help hours to a total of 1400 hours through June 30, 2020 pursuant to Section 7 of the Humboldt County Salary Resolution for the staff persons listed below:
* Cannabis Services
1. Lily Naylor, Office Assistant I
2. Brienna Zoellner, Office Assistant I
* Building Inspections
3. Erica Reichle, Office Assistant I

Body
SOURCE OF FUNDING:
Cannabis (268) Permit Fees
Building Inspections (262): Permit Fees

DISCUSSION:
The requested extension of extra help hours is necessary to continue processing permit applications. For our cannabis permits, Brienna Zoellner and Lily Naylor are integral to the support work associated with permit applications. This includes referring projects to other departments and agencies, mailing decision details for completed projects and filing.

An extension of extra help hours is requested for Erica Reichle in order to continue her work to digitally store our building permit records. This process reduces the amount of storage necessary to maintain paper files.

All extra help employees working beyond 960 hours are subject to paying into the California Public Employees' Retirement System (CalPERS). The additional costs for CalPERS are included in the estimated salary costs below.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Estimated salary and benefits costs for the requested extension of extra help including contributions to the CalPERS and Public Agency Retirement Services (PARS) as required for employees working over 960 hours in a fiscal year are listed below:
* Cannabis Planning (1100268) $14,236.14
* Building Inspections (110262) $5,445.90
Ongoing revenue will fund these positions.
