PERSONNEL ACTIONS AGENDA 07115/96 4 CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO PERSONNEL ACTION LIST (UNCLASSIFIED) FOR COUNCIL AGENDA OF: ................................................. CERTIFICATION BY DIRECTOR OF PERSONNEL: I hereby certify that the UNCLASSIFIED Personnel Action(s) listed below conform with all personnel policies adopted by the Mayor and Common Council and are in conformance with all administrative regulations of the City of San Bernardino. Signed: Date: 7/8/96 UNCLASSIFIED MOTION: In addition to the classified actions, below is a list of unclassified personnel action(s) , submitted by the Director of Personnel, which comply with City policies. I recommend that the Mayor and Common Council approve the below listed personnel action(s) . NAMEZDEPARTMENT REQUESTED ACTION 1. Billdt, Michael PROMOTION : From Police POLICE Lieutenant to Police Captain (U) , Range P-5, $7256/mo. , eff. 7-22-96. 2 . Raya, Edward APPOINTMENT: Director of Risk RISK MANAGMENT Management (U) , Range 4467, $5277/mo, eff. 8-05-96. PD:UNCLASSIFIED till V f t POSITION JUSTIFICATIONS The following are the justifications for appointments and promotions to be reviewed by the Mayor and Common Council at the July 15, 1996 Council meeting: 1. Community Service Representative I. Police Department (2 positions - Lelia Worthy & Paulette Neish) Justification: One (1) employee is being promoted to Community Service Representative I (CSRI). Another individual is a new-hire appointment to CSR I. Both employees will fill vacated positions due to the above CSR II promotions and will be assigned to either the Complaint Desk or field CSR I duties. If assigned to the Complaint Desk CSR I, they would be assigned to a shift and would handle walk-in and telephone crime reports and inquiries from the public. If assigned to the field, they would handle non-emergency calls for service, such as police reports and traffic accidents. Not filling these positions would result in other CSR I's working overtime, the assignment of Police Officers to the Complaint Desk, the assignment of Police Officers to handle minor police reports and traffic accidents or a decrease in the level of service provided to the public. Using police officers for these functions would result in an increase in the response times to emergencies and high-priority calls for service. 2. Community Service Representative H. Police Department (3 positions - Angela Joyner, Erica Lithen, Daani-Ruth Schwab) Justification: Three (3) CSR I's are being promoted to CSR II. They will be assigned to field CSR II duties with a primary responsibility of handling all traffic accidents not involving criminal prosecution (DUI, hit and run, etc). There are five authorized positions with one assigned to each of the five Area Commands. Not filling these positions will result in three of the five Area Commands not having an assigned CSR II to investigate traffic accidents. The duties would have to be assumed by Police Officers taking them away from their primary duty of law enforcement and resulting in an increase in the response times to emergency and high-priority calls for service. Position Justifications July 15, 1996 Council Meeting Page 2 3. Maintenance Worker H. Public Services Department (Apolinar Garza) Justification: One (1) employee is being appointed to the Maintenance Worker II position on the concrete crew to perform the duties of removing existing damaged concrete curbs and sidewalks, grading and occasionally forming for replacement concrete, placing and finishing concrete and cleanup. The position operates construction equipment, dump trucks, tractors and performs semiskilled labor. If this position is not filled, the operation of repairing damaged sidewalks would be delayed significantly. Due to current vacant positions, work requires that the crew wait for a dump truck while one of the other employees hauls a load of broken concrete to the dump, because there is no one available to bring another dump truck to the job site. It also restricts the amount of concrete that can be poured at a time because of insufficient people to finish the concrete, limiting the volume of sidewalks to be patched. 4. Maintenance Worker II, Public Services Department (Ruben Martinez) Justification: One (1) Refuse Operator I is being promoted to the Maintenance Worker II, assigned to the Street Sweeping crew. The position operates a roll-off truck hauling trash collected by the street sweeping operation and hauls trash generated by other Street Division crews from the City Yard. This position is presently filled as "acting in a higher classification" basis. This position is funded by the street sweeping assessment district. 5. Heavy Equipment Operator, Public Services Department (3 positions - Gilberto Baeza, Ruben Colunga, Maurice McKnight) Justification: Three (3) employees are being promoted to Heavy Equipment Operators. The position assigned to the Paving/Grading crew operates a variety of heavy construction equipment including a motor grader for grading roadway shoulders, front- end loaders for loading earth and rock, operating dozers and larger pavement repair projects. If this position is not filled, grading of roads, roadway shoulders and alleys will not be completed. Pavement repair projects will be reduced in scope, and our ability Position Justifications July 15, 1996 Council Meeting Page 3 to respond to emergency repairs caused by storms, etc., will be severely restricted. This position is presently filled on an "acting in a higher classification" basis. The position in the Right-of-Way/Special Projects section drives large mowing equipment along the edge of roadways, mowing along drainage areas and operates heavy equipment when cleaning flood control channels and disposing of illegal dumping. This position also provides supervision of Work Release Inmates for hand work in the cleaning right- of-ways, alleys and cleanup of illegal dumping. The number of work release people varies from 10 to 20 people each day during the week and 20 to 40 people on weekends. If this position is not filled, weeds along the roads will continue to grow, adding blight and potential fire hazards; and, there will be additional expenditures for overtime to maintain supervision of the Work Release Inmates. Illegally dumped material will remain for longer periods of time which encourages more illegal dumping at each site. This position is presently filled on an "acting in a higher classification" basis. The position assigned to the concrete crew operates a large backhoe used for excavating sidewalks and curbs being replaced. On occasions, they operate large front-end loaders, drive three-axle dump trucks and perform skilled labor as well. This position is presently filled on an "acting in a higher classification" basis. 6. Senior Administrative Analyst. Administration (Lori Sassoon) Justification: The position of Assistant to the City Administrator has been vacant since October 1995. A new, downgraded position was established by the Mayor and Common Council on April 22, 1996, to replace the vacant position of Assistant to the City Administrator. Also, a salary savings is created for the first year of $17.80 7. Justification for this position was previously distributed to Council on April 15, 1996. 7. Staff Analyst III, JTPA Program Manager. SBETA (Thomas Clark) Justification: The workload of the agency has increased to a point where a full-time Programs Manager is essential for mission accomplishment. The selected individual will be responsible for supervision and management of all programs of the Operations Division. Programs are the heart of the operations. The Programs Manager has a staff of ten case managers and Position Justifications July 15, 1996 Council Meeting Page 4 clerical support personnel under his/her jurisdiction. Job Training Partnership Act (apAj funding is now available to sustain the position. The General Fund is not impacted in this personnel action. 8. Risk Manager, Risk Management Division Justification: The City has operated without a Risk Manager since June of last year. For the first six months, the Assistant City Administrator performed the function. More recently, the Director of Personnel has assumed the responsibilities of the position, in addition to managing the City's Personnel Department. This dual role has been in effect since January 1996. Although the primary Risk Management duties have been addressed over the past year, it is difficult to continue the dual management roles and provide the best possible Risk Management services to the City. Some of the issues which the Council should be aware of relative to this positiori include: 1. BICEP - A number of issues with respect to coverage issues with member cities and outstanding lawsuits will require a significant amount of time. In addition, City representatives would be more available to serve on various BICEP subcommittees. 2. Purchase of Insurance Coverages - The City annually purchases over $800,000 in insurance policies. Determining coverage issues is normally very involved. 3. Managing Self-Insured Workers' Compensation Program - The City has approximately 500 cases which are active and represent an outstanding liability of about $5,891,000. Managing these cases is also important and time consuming. 4. Liability Claims Management - The City is self-insured for the first $1 million for liability claims. Managing and settling the nonlitigated claims which range from 250 to 500 per year is also involved.
