AGENDA BILL Agenda Item No. 5(C) Date: February 21, 2012 To: El Cerrito City Council From: Sukari Beshears, Employee Services Manager Jennifer Carman, Development Services Manager Karen Pinkos, Assistant City Manager Subject: Reclassification of Building Division Staff ACTION REQUESTED Adopt a resolution approving the reclassification of the Administrative Clerk position in the Building Division to Permit Technician I. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS Staff has conducted a review of the current staffing and position listings in the Building Division of the Environmental and Development Services Department. Currently, the Division's authorized positions consist of a Building Official (vacant), two Building Inspector II positions, one Building Inspector I position, one Plan Checker I position, two Permit Technician I positions and one Administrative Clerk position. It has been determined that the work being performed by the current Plan Checker, Permit Technician I and Administrative Clerk positions are duties that would be more appropriately placed at higher classification levels: • The current Administrative Clerk is performing duties at the functions and level of a Permit Technician I, including building permit-related assignments at the Customer Service Counter, initial review and intake of plans, calculating fees, scheduling appointments, research and response to inquiries, service requests, and complaints, and providing basic information regarding standards, procedures, and conformance to Building Codes and City ordinances. As one of the main points of intake for the Division, this position is better suited to be changed to denote a specialized program as indicated in the Permit Technician job description as opposed to an Administrative Clerk position. • The current Plan Checker I is performing duties better suited to the Plan Checker II level in the series, including more complex plan review than is required of the Plan Checker I, higher level of customer interaction and problem solving, and ability to supervise staff. • The current Permit Technician I is performing duties better suited to the Permit Technician III in the series, including conducting reviews of plans, high level of customer interaction and problem solving, development of Division systems and procedures, and ability to supervise other Counter staff the proposed Permit Technician I position). ---PAGE BREAK--- Agenda Item No. 5(C) The City's Personnel Rules and Regulations allow for promotional opportunities within a classification series, including the Plan Checker series and the Permit Technician series to which those positions apply. The reclassification of the Administrative Clerk position to a Permit Technician position must be ratified by the City Council. FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS No additional funds are required by this action. The salary for the Permit Technician I is $3,397-$4,129. The expense for the reclassification is offset by a savings of a vacant position in the Building Division and is within the current fiscal year's budget. Therefore, there is no financial impact in regards to FY 2011-12 operating budget. These changes will be reflected in the FY 2012-13 budget. Reviewed by: Attachment: 1. Resolution 2.
