Moreno, Jr., Director of Public services, ..requested the exchange of one (1) budgeted Refuse Operator I for a Typist Clerk II in the Refuse Division. . The Refuse Superintendent's work has been handled primarily by a street Division Typist Clerk II. CUrrent Refuse Division clerical staff are working at maximum capacity and are only able to provide minimal assistance for the Superintendent. Because of Assembly Bill 939, the Superintendent has additional responsibilities for a complete waste study and implementation of recycling programs, and will need even more staff support. The Director of Public Services proposes to "exchange" one Refuse Operator I budgeted position (delete it) for the creation of one Typist Clerk II position. The creation of this Typist Clerk position will allow the Superintendent to meet his responsibilities in a timely manner without being in a crisis mode for reports, typing, disciplinary actions, and other matters, as he is at present. This will allow the Street Division employee to address Street Division needs, which are currently not being met. RECOMMENDATIONS 1. Delete one (1) budgeted Refuse Operator I position, Range 1275, $1,748-$2, 124/month. The annual compensation for Refuse Operator I, including 21.37\ for variable fringe benefits that rise with salary, is as follows: * $25,459 at Step 1 * $30,935 at Step 5 2. Establish a new position of Typist Clerk II, Refuse Division, Range 1243, $1,489-$1,809/month. The annual compensation for Typist Clerk II, including 21.37\ for variable fringe benefits that rise with salary, is as follows: * $21,686 at Step 1 * $26,347 at Step 5 Page 1 of 10 .,o;;.n7F;.4 . > o o STAFF REPORT Exchanqe of One Budqeted Refuse Operator I for a Typist Clerk II paqe 2 COST SAVINGS Deletinq one (1) budqeted Refuse Operator I position and establishinq a new position of Typist Clerk II results in an annual savinqs to the Refuse Fund of .4.588 at step 5.

OFF. 1992 FEB 11 ~M II: 16 CITY OP SAN BERNARDINO PUBLIC SERVICES DEPARTMENT INTER-OPPICE MEMORANDUM To: Personnel Committee, through the city Administrator From: Manuel P. Moreno, Jr., Director of Public Services Date: February 17, 1992 Subject: Exchange of One Budgeted Refuse Operator I for a Typist Clerk II /YV11"/M '2//?/91.-- since the Refuse Superintendent came on board, he has acquired a full understanding of the Refuse Division. He has been implementing and maintaining department rules, procedures, and surveys. He has full responsibility for reviewing equipment specifications, purchase requests, implementing safety training, taking disciplinary actions, and enforcing state and Federal laws regarding commercial drivers. Additionally, since Mr. Barnes accepted the position, the State passed Assembly Bill 939 mandating a complete waste study and subsequent implementation of recycling programs. He is in charge of ensuring we meet our deadlines and of implementing the necessary programs. Mr. Barnes' clerical work has been handled primarily by a Street Division Typist Clerk II. Current Refuse Division clerical staff are working at maximum capacity and are only able to provide minimal assistance for Mr. Barnes. with the superintendent's increased knowledge of the department and further AB 939 responsibilities, this situation has taxed both the Street Division (a General Fund division) and the Refuse Division (an Enterprise Fund division). The Director of Public Services proposes to "exchange" one Refuse Operator I budgeted position (delete it) for the creation of one Typist Clerk II position. The creation of this Typist Clerk position will allow the superintendent to meet his responsibilities in a timely manner without being in the crisis mode for reports, typing, disciplinary actions, etc., as he at present. This will also allow our street Division employee to address Street Division needs which are currently not being met. There is no impact to the General Fund by this decision, and there will be a net budgetary savinas to the Refuse Fund of $3,780.00 per year. Because there is currently a vacant Refuse Operator I position, there will be no job loss associated with this exchange.
