TO: Honorable City Council
FROM: Deborah S. Traffenstedt, Deputy City Manager I
BY: Jennifer Mellon, Administrative Services Manage
DATE: December 12, 2013 (CC Meeting of 12/18/13)
SUBJECT: Consider Resolution Amending Classification Plan and Rescinding
Resolution No. 2010-2962
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
The City's Classification Plan contains the job descriptions for City employment positions.
An amendment to the Classification Plan Resolution is proposed to add new job
descriptions and revise current job descriptions (see attached draft resolution, with
revisions shown through the use of legislative format).
The revisions to the Classification Plan include new job descriptions for the hourly positions
of Clerical Aide I and II, Clerical Aide/Crossing Guard, Intern, and Laborer/Custodian I, II,
and III. These temporary, part-time positions have been historically used by the City and
are included in the City's Salary Plan; however, there were no adopted job descriptions for
these positions.
A new job description has been added for a Competitive Service Maintenance Specialist
position. The Maintenance Specialist position was approved by the City Council on March
20, 2013, and is included in the Memorandum of Understanding with SEIU Local 721 for
the current fiscal year.
A new job description has been added for a Non-Competitive Service (Management)
Economic Development and Housing Manager position. This new classification replaces
the prior Redevelopment Manager job description, and language has been modified as
needed to remove prior reference to redevelopment and clarify current responsibilities and
essential functions.
Modifications have been made to the job descriptions for Account Clerk I and II, Recreation
Aide, Recreation Leader I, II, and III, and Vector/Animal Control Specialist and
Vector/Animal Control Technician positions to correct inconsistent language; and update
description of responsibilities, functions, experience,training, and/or certification language.

December 18, 2013, Regular Meeting
Page 2
The draft resolution that is attached to this agenda report only includes the new and
revised job descriptions, and a page titled "Other Positions", which is shown as now
deleted. This page will be deleted, since this Classification Plan update now adds job
descriptions for all position classifications currently used by the City for employment, and
achieves consistency with the City's Salary Plan. An update to the City's Salary plan is a
separate but related agenda item for the December 18 regular meeting.
The final Classification Plan resolution will include all of the City job descriptions,
incorporating the attached new and revised job descriptions into the document. The City
makes a copy of the current Classification Plan and Salary Plan available on the City's
website.
FISCAL IMPACT
No fiscal impact.
