MEMO

 

 

 

 

Management Services Department

DATE: August 24, 2004
TO: Mary J. Alvord, City Manager
FROM: Judie Sarquiz, Management Services Director
SUBJECT: AMENDMENT OF THE CLASSIFICATION & PAY PLAN AND CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODE BY ABOLISHMENT OF CERTAIN JOB TITLES AND SPECIFICATIONS


 

PURPOSE

 

The purpose of this report is to request the City Council approve the abolishment of the titles and specifications shown in the Exhibit A.

 

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION

 

The City occasionally reviews its list of titles and specifications in an effort to abolish old and inactive classifications from the current files. This abolishment review was last conducted and presented to the City Council in 1995. Since then, the number of unused titles has multiplied due to reorganizations and other changes within the various departments. The affected departments and unions have reviewed and approved the titles and specifications listed in Exhibit A for abolishment. The Civil Service Board reviewed and approved Exhibit A at their regular meeting on August 12, 2004. These specifications, although abolished, will be permanently maintained in the City�s historical records for use in the future should our needs change.

 

ANALYSIS & CONCLUSION

 

The removal of the old and inactive titles and specifications from the City�s current files and computer programs will increase the City�s operational efficiency.

 

FISCAL IMPACT

 

There is no fiscal impact from the abolishment of these titles and specifications.

 

RECOMMENDATION

 

Staff recommends that City Council approve the abolishment of the titles and specifications as shown in Exhibit A.

 

Respectfully submitted,

JUDIE SARQUIZ

Management Services Director
