MEMORANDUM
TO: The Honorable City Council
•
FROM: Steven Kueny, City Manager
DATE: December 1, 1988
SUBJECT: Funding for the Recruitment of an Executive Director
for the Ventura County Transportation Commission (VCTC)
• The attached report From M. L. (Lin) Koester, City Manager of Simi Valley,
explains the proposed contribution for the selection of the Executive
Director of VCTC. As indicated, all contributions are expected to be
reimbursed from the Commission once it begins formal operation in early
1989.
As you will recall , VCTC was created by SB 1800 with.an effective date of
January 1, 1989. It' will have the primary role of County-wide
transportation planning and related matters. The existing Ventura County
Association of Governments (VCAG) will be phased out when VCTC becomes
operational .
• By proceeding with recruitment by a professional recruiter at this time,
VCTC can hire a highly qualified Executive Director at the earliest
possible time. The shared cost makes the use of a professional recruiter
relatively inexpensive.
•
I recommend participation in the shared contribution program. Further, I
recommend that the Council authorize the contribution for $500, regardless
of reimbursement. This will allow an approximate 3.5% contingency and
preclude the need to return this matter to the Council in the event of any
modest increase of costs above the current estimate. In addition, if for
some reason all or part of the contributions cannot be reimbursed to all
eleven agencies, the matter would not require additional action by the
Council .

Staff Recommendation
1. Authorize participation at a cost not to exceed $500 and
appropriate $500 from the General Fund Reserve to Account
01-117-641; and
2. Authorize participation whether or not the funds are reimbursed
so long as Moorpark receives the same consideration for
reimbursement as the other ten (10) participating agencies.

Dear Mrd uenyf
,,,,;4:c,
On November 17th, the VCAG Executive Committee reviewed alternatives for
the recruitment of an Executive Director for the Ventura County
Transportation Commission (VCTC) . It was the recommendation of the
Committee that each City and the County contribute the necessary funds to
retain a recruitment consultant. All contributions will be subject to
reimbursement from the Commission once it begins formal operations.
It is estimated the consultant services will cost $17,000. Based on a per
capita contribution, each City and the County would pay up to the following
amounts (approximately 2.5 cents per capita) :
Camarillo - $1,255 San Buenaventura - $2,400
Fillmore - $ 305 Santa Paula $ 645
Moorpark - $ 485 Simi Valley - $2,590
Ojai - $ 215 Thousand Oaks - $2,700
Oxnard - $3,400 Ventura County - $2,435
Port Hueneme - $ 565
It is requested that each City and the County take necessary action to
contribute to the cost of recruitment by December 6th. Please forward a
Memorandum indicating your actions to my office.
I will solicit proposals from recruitment consultants by December 9th. The
appointed County Transportation Commission is tentatively scheduled to meet
informally in public on December 15th to select a consultant and discuss
other Commission implementation activities.
It is anticipated the Commission will conduct the interview/hiring of the
Executive Director in February 1989, with start of work in March. The
final salary for the position will be set by the Commission.
