Logan McNeill will be voluntarily demoting from Deputy Sheriff I to Correctional Deputy I effective September 6, 2020. Per the Merit System rules he would move from his current Step 1A as a Deputy Sheriff I to Step 1A as a Correctional Deputy I.

To assist with recruitment and retention of Correctional Deputies, the Sheriff's Office has approval from the CAO's office to place new Correctional Deputies in Step B who possess the core academy certification prior to hire. Since Logan McNeill has POST certification prior to transferring into the Correctional Deputy I position, the Sheriff's Office is requesting approval for Logan McNeill to be Step B so his pay is equitable with other Correctional Deputies that have the same certification upon hire.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Allowing Logan McNeill to voluntarily demote to the Correctional Deputy I position at Step B has no negative financial impact to the Corrections Budget Unit 1100-243. Filling that same position with a candidate that has the core academy certification prior to hire would result in the exact same pay. There is sufficient funding in budget unit 1100-243 for the recommended action, and there will be no additional impact to the General Fund.

STRATEGIC FRAMEWORK:
This action supports your Board's Strategic Framework by investing in county employees.
