Motion: Approve job descriptions as proposed. Synopsis of Previous Council Action: On June 13, 2013, the Personnel Committee recommended that the proposed job description revisions be forwarded to the Mayor and Common Council for adoption. Background: HAZMAT Technician The City's Public Works Department, Operations & Maintenance Division, is responsible for the management, clean up and disposal of hazardous materials generated by the City or illegally dumped on public rights of way. In reviewing the job description, it is requested that the Associate's degree be changed from required to desirable. This item was reviewed and approved by the International Union of Operating Engineers (IUOE), General Unit Bargaining representative, on June 6, 2013. Integrated Waste Operator(Flex)/Senior Integrated Waste Operator The City's Public Works Department is requesting the proposed revisions to the overall job description to reflect the duties of the position, to require a copy of the employee's DMV driving record(1-16) at the time he/she applies for the position, and to require a Class B license at the time of application. The current job description does not require a Class B license at the time of hire and, actually, afforded an employee six (6) months during which to obtain the license, resulting in a delay to operations. This item was reviewed and approved by the International Union of Operating Engineers (IUOE), General Unit Bargaining representative, on June 5,2013. APDN Code Enforcement Division Manager(U) &Senior Code Enforcement Officer In December, 2012, Code Enforcement personnel were transferred from the Community Updated:6/25/2013 by Linda Sutherland I Packet Pg. 91 2566 Development Department to the Police Department. The proposed job descriptions have been revised to reflect the departmental change. The Code Enforcement Division Manager (U) item was reviewed and approved by the San Bernardino Confidential Management Association (SBCMA), Management/Confidential Bargaining Unit,on May 2, 2013. The Senior Code Enforcement Officer item was reviewed and approved by the San Bernardino Public Employees' Association (SBPEA), Middle Management Bargaining Unit representative, on May 15,2013. Property Evidence and Supply Supervisor On February 1, 2011, this position was reclassified from the position of Forensics & Property Manager. The position was recently vacated due to retirement. In anticipation of establishing a recruitment to fill this position, the job description was reviewed. The department would like to eliminate the requirement of an Associate's degree as the position does not require a college education, and it is felt that this requirement could severely limit the internal candidate pool of employees that have experience in this discipline. This request is also being made to maintain consistency within other civilian"supervisor positions in the department. This item was reviewed and approved by the San Bernardino Public Employees' Association (SBPEA), Middle Management Bargaining Unit representative, on May 2, 2013.
