FROM: Kathleen Kelly, Interim General Manager

SUBJECT: Abolishment of Executive Classification Specifications.

ACTION ITEM

RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

15-235 September 16, 2015

Consider the adoption of Resolution No. 15-041 abolishing the executive Classification Specifications of Assistant General Manager, Assistant General Manager-Engineering, Chief Administrative Services Officer, Chief Human Resources Officer {originally adopted as Human Resources Director), Chief Information Officer (originally adopted as Chief Technology Officer), Chief Maintenance Officer, Chief Performance Officer, Chief Planning & Development Officer, Chief Plann ing~ Engineering & Construction Officer, Chief Technology Officer, Chief Transportation Officer, Deputy General Manager, Deputy General Manager- Service Development, effective October 14, 2015 and repeal of Resolution Nos. 899, 1175, 1192, 2050, 2051, 06-017.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

Staff is request ing the abolishment of several District executive classification specifications developed over many years in response to internal reorganizations. The incoming General Manager will assess the needs of the District and develop a functional organizational structure. Any new classifications associated with the new structure will be brought to the Board for approval. This is the first step in a full audit of all District classification specifications.

BUDGETARY /FISCAL IMPACT:

Some initial savings are associated with this action. Any long-term fiscal impact will be included in future reports re lated to new classifications.

BACKGROUND/RATIONALE:

Executive level classification specifications have been established over the years, generally in response to internal organizational structural changes or "reorgs'' . The goal of reorganizations is to improve business processes and create greater efficiencies. The number of these executive classifications has grown over time and many contain outdated language. Staff is therefore requesting that the executive classifications listed in the chart in this report be abolished. The incoming General Manager will establish a functional organizational structure

Report No. 15-235 Page 2 of 2

and any new classifications associated with the new structure will be brought to the Board for approval.

The Interim Planning, Engineering & Construction Officer's contract will terminate October 13, 2015. Staff is therefore requesting that abolishment of the executive classification specifications listed below, be effective October 14, 2015.

ADVANTAGES/DISADVANTAGES:

The advantage is that the executive job classifications listed in this report will no longer be part

of the District's Classification and Compensation roster. There are no disadvantages to the

proposed action.

ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:

The alternative would be to not abolish the classifications, but that is not recommended

because many of them are redundant and/or outdated and it is confusing to have so many

inactive classifications.
