HomeMy WebLinkAboutAGENDA REPORT 2014 0702 CCSA REG ITEM 10TITEM 1O.T.
FROM: Deborah S. Traffenstedt, Deputy City Manager
DATE: June 26, 2014 (CC Meeting of 7/2/14)
SUBJECT: Consider Resolution Amending Classification Plan and Rescinding
Resolution No. 2013-3258
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
The City's Classification Plan contains the job descriptions for all City employment
positions, and is intended to be consistent with all of the positions listed in the City's
adopted Salary Plan. An amendment to the Classification Plan Resolution is proposed to
revise multiple job descriptions, as further described in this report, and the proposed
revisions are shown in the attached draft resolution through the use of legislative format.
An update to the City's Salary Plan is also scheduled for the July 2 meeting and is
consistent with the changes proposed to the Classification Plan job descriptions.
The proposed revisions to the Classification Plan include renaming and consolidating
various clerical positions for the purpose of creating more modern job descriptions and
position titles; revising outdated office equipment references in all job descriptions; deleting
or revising Redevelopment Agency references; revising language in Community
Development Department job descriptions for Community Development Director, Planning
Director, Planning Manager, Principal Planner, Associate Planner, and Assistant Planner I
and 11; deleting the Senior Planner job description, which position was previously deleted
from the Salary Plan and from the Memorandum of Understanding with SEIU Local 721
Union in 2010; revising the City Manager, Assistant City Manager, Deputy City Manager,
and Administrative Services Director job descriptions; adding a community services
program essential function for the Recreation Coordinator I, 11, and III job description;
revising Vector/Animal Control Technician to Vector/Animal Control Technician I and 11; and
making other editorial changes as needed for internal consistency purposes.
Language was added to Section 3 of the Classification Plan adoption resolution to clarify
that references in the job descriptions to City, City of Moorpark, or City Council may also
include responsibility for other governmental public agencies for which the Moorpark City
Council serves as the governing body (current such agencies are listed, including the
Successor Housing Agency of the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Moorpark).
Honorable City Council
July 2, 2014, Regular Meeting
Page 2
Although not required to be negotiated, the job description changes for the Competitive
Service positions were discussed with SEIU Local 721 in conjunction with a new
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). Consideration of the new MOU is a separate
agenda item scheduled for the July 2 meeting, and the revised position titles are reflected
in the General Unit position list in the new MOU. A summary of these changes is included
in the agenda report for the new MOU, and is not repeated in this report. The additional
essential function added to the Recreation Coordinator I, II, and III job description is
intended to provide more flexibility for a community services program assignment
(consistent with the overall objectives of the Parks, Recreation and Community Services
Department).
Changes were made to the Community Development Director, Planning Director, Planning
Manager, Principal Planner, Associate Planner, and Assistant Planner I and II job
descriptions to incorporate edits to essential functions, knowledge, and abilities.
The changes made to the City Manager, Assistant City Manager, Deputy City Manager,
and Administrative Services Director job descriptions are intended to provide more
flexibility for City Manager assignment of responsibility for various department and division
responsibilities.
The complete Classification Plan Resolution as revised forthis update, including legislative
format for the draft revisions, totals 356 pages. Staff will make a copy of this complete draft
available on the City's website. The draft resolution that is attached to this agenda report
only includes the job descriptions with the more substantive edits, and does not include
those job descriptions which were only revised to edit the modern office equipment
description or to correct format.
The final Classification Plan resolution will include all of the City job descriptions as revised
(and the legislative format will be removed). The final resolution will be proofed to ensure
internal consistency for margins, headings, and standard formatting, and editing will be
done as needed. When the final resolution is signed, a copy will be made available on the
City's website, along with the City's updated Salary Plan.
FISCAL IMPACT
