Schweitzer, City FROM: R. Ann Siracusa, Director of Planning SUBJECT: Request for Additional Staffing COPIES: Jim Richardson, Deputy City Administrator _ Development ------------------------------------------------------------- BACKGROUND It is important to the City to bring the planning permit process into compliance with the State law and at the same time continue to process projects in an expeditious manner. In attempting to bring about the necessary changes in the process, it has become evident that the operation is under- staffed for the amount of development occurring in the City, even with the OPR (Office of Planning and Research) restric- t ions in effect. In addition, the OPR moratorium and related law suits and the requirement to update the General Plan in a minimal amount of time has put additional burden on Planning staff. Although there are currently two key positions vacant, even with those filled, these conditions are likely to persist for at least one year (see attachment A). Current Planninq Division The Current Planning Division has a staff of seven profes- sional positions: one Principal Planner (vacant); two Senior Planners (one vacant); two Planner lIs; and two Planner Is. In addition, the Department has authorization for a contract Planner I for approximately six months. The primary responsibility of the Current Planning Division is to process development applications for planning permits. This includes staffing the Planning Commission and Develop- ment Review Committee as well as numerous other duties in addition to case work. The application case the past two weeks one Senior Planner contract planner has load was and just prior to the assignments made in 49 active cases divided between the the four other planners. (The started and is not yet trained.) ;3 ~" --- .~ ""'" ......., INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM: 871l-2105 Request for Additional Staffing November l7, 1987 Page 2 , v,J \- This is approximately ten cases per planner when a heavy case load in most jurisdictions is five cases. In the past several months, the current planners have been processing as many as thirteen cases apiece at any given time. Approximately four to five new cases are currently being filed per week. This workload will increase dramatically when the moratorium is lifted for single-family and R-2 development south of the OPR line. There are approximately 20 cases pending which had started processing at the time of the moratorium and another 20 which were sent back since no processing had begun. I anticipate that, in addition to the ongoing caseload, Planning will have 20 to 40 new cases filed in one to two weeks after the lifting of the moratorium. In the 1986-87 Budget, a Planner I position and the Draftsman position were eliminated. Since then the planners have updated assessor parcel and zoning maps on a time available basis. Consequently, the update of maps falls further and further behind which can result in the public and City staff using inaccurate information. Advanced PlanninQ Division The Advanced Planning Division has three professional posi- tions: one Principal Planner, one Planner II, and one Planner I. Several interns have been employed to work on the land use survey for the General Plan update, but funds for interns are essentially depleted at this time. One contract clerical position is assigned to this Division. Also, the division does not have sufficient staff to assign a planner to act as liaison between between Data Processing and the Planning Department on the Geobase and Geomapping. This limits the timely implementation of the aapping system. My experience with such systems indicates that a Senior Planner level position is required approximately half time to get these systems on line in a manner useful to the department. Workload Manaqement The problem of workload must be attacked on two fronts. First, the process itself must be streamlined to eliminate unnecessary steps and to find more efficient ways to accom- plish the required tasks. This is an effort which will be taking place over the next year in an attempt to be ready to address any changes in process dictated by the adopted General Plan. .....,., No. 1 1 1 1 ~ /"-~"\ '- -......I INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM: 87ll-2105 Request for Additional Staffing November 17, 1987 Page 3 .""'"\ -- The second step is to add sufficient staff. The development industry recognizes that the planning function is under- staffed and has been very cooperative and patient in working with the Planning Department. It is my feeling that the development industry would be supportive of reasonable fee increases to off-set the cost of increased staff IF the City can guarantee turn-around time for project processing. PROPOSAL The Planning Department proposal involves three mayor steps to achieve better management of current and projected work- load: l. It is proposed that the following positions be approved and funded: Position Responsibilitv Planner II Current Planning Casework Processing and Counter Planner I Current Planning Counter Back-up and Graphics Senior Planner Advanced Planning, ERC, Data Management, Computer Graphics, RDA Coordination Clerk III Cost in* Balance of 87-88 Ongoing* Annual Cost Ranqe $12,9l8 $25,836 1111 $10,878 $21,756 1097 $16,530 $33,060 2145 Receptionist Back-up, CEQA, Long Documents, (General Plan, Zoning Ordinance) $7.314 $47,640 $14.628 $95,280 *Based on current contracts and ranges as of November, 1987, hiring at Step 1. - c -- ,........,.. o '\ ,...I '-'" INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM: 871l-2105 Request for Additional Staffing November 17, 1987 Page 4 2. Over the next year, study the planning permit process implemented in October, 1987 and work with the develop- ment community to evaluate ways in which the require- ments of law can be met in the most expeditious manner, with the intent of establishing a revised process after the adoption of the General Plan (which could conceiv- ably change many aspects of the process). 3. Develop reasonable fee increases which will support additional staff to assure that the process established after the adoption of the General Plan can guarantee turn-around times to developers and individuals seeking planning permits.

Both of these programs are federally funded with City matches of 10S to 30% being required for a total annual budget. These programs provide volunteers in a variety of services ranging from general office work to technical assistants at various sites throughout the area to being com- panions for other seniors who are homebound or confined to rest homes. These are vital services to the community and provide a vehicle for utilizing the skills of our senior citizens who have a desire to be functional. The Senior Programs have been very successful and have provided hundreds of thousands of hours of volunteer service throughout the area. The programs are employing more volunteer workers now than at any time since their inception some 15 years ago. Because of the numbers of volunteers and the number of sites involved and the great amount of time needed to visit the sites, recruit the volunteer, complete the administrative re- quirements and just simply to manage the programs, assistance is needed for the prOject directors. There has been a position of Field Representative Aide which pays $4.50 per hour which has been used in the past to assist in some of the work of our Senior Volunteer programs. However, this position does not pro- vide a person to do what is actually needed in an assistant to the pro- ject director. Therefore, it is requested that the position title be changed and the job description upgraded to include the duties required for the position. In addition, it is requested that the hourly rate be increased to $6.00 per hour. The new title requested is Coordinator of Volunteers which is commensurate with the duties desired for the position. A job description for the up- graded position is attached. In actual operations, this position would be used 5 to 8 hours per day, 5 days per week to assist the project director in managing all aspects .of the senior programs. Funding for the position including fringe benefits wu1d be worked into the budget which is federally funded with a City IIatch. ;t{- - - "..., ....,..-....

RAMOS, DIRECTOR Parks, Recreation and Community Services AFR: ta Attachments cc: Ray Schweitzer, City Administrator " c ,,-... " '-' -..I JUSTIFICATION FOR HIRING THE COORDINATOR OF VOlUNTEERS POSITION FOR THE SENIOR COMPANION PROGRAM The program has grown in numbers of participants and in numbers of work stations through the years. At the same time, volunteers who are qualified to assist in program administration are not available. This job requires someone who can work 5 days per week and travel to all the volunteer work sites to evaluate the services being rendered as well as to evaluate the site and to ensure that our companion volunteers are receiving fair treat. ment. As has been pointed out during evaluation visits by the ACTION Program Specialist. one full time staff member is not sufficient to monitor or supervise the volunteers adequately. SCP Volunteers work at 14-16 stations throughout a 30 mile radius of the City of San Bernardino. They are placed in individual residences, day care centers and nursing homes. ACTION requires that staffing patterns be appropriate to the size, scope and complexity of the project. The suggested ratio of supervisory staff to volunteer is in the range of 1 to 25 or 30. The volunteer strength is above 60 at the present time. Although the SCP Director is doing an excellent job with the aid of the Advisory Council, an unreasonable burden is being placed on her by expecting only one person to adequately supervise 60 volunteers. The ACTION Program allows for a Field Assistant to be included in the grant budget. It is recommended that a full time Field Assistant be included in the SCP Grant Budget for the next Budget Year in 1988/89; however, as a stop gap measure. it is further recommended that a part time Field Assistant be hired for 25 hours per week to assist the Director until the new budget can be presented. Funds for the position are available in the current budget because of savings realized by changing the transportation system. Rather than paying the expenses of operation of a van and driver salaries, public transportation is being used with volutneers receiving a transportation stipend. This new system has reduced the transportation costs per van rider from $7.95 per day to under $1.00 per day for each yolunteer formerly riding the van. The result is that there is approximately $8,000 which can be shifted from transportation to personnel costs for hiring this position. Therefore, in view of the foregoing information, it is requested that these funds be authorized for use in hiring a Senior COIpanion Program assistant to do field supervision on a part time basis for the remainder of the budget year. The demands of the program have become IIIOre than. the Senior Companion Program DirectOr can adequately handle with only' the volunteer help she has been receiving. With the assistance of SCP Director Betty lewison, it has been determined that the Director would receive valuable, effective and economic assistance if an individual could be hired to work 5 hours per day, 5 days per week for the remainder of FY 1987/88. At a rate of $6.00 per hour plus fringe benefits, the cost would be approximately $5,221 for the remainder of the budget year. The amount of funds left in our transportation budget after discontinuing use of the van will adequately cover the transportation costs, the personnel costs for an assistant and any contingincies that may occur in the transportation program. , " ..~ ...,",'''' ....... - ....., COORDINATOR OF VOLUNTEERS JOB DESCRIPTION .
