FISCAL IMPACT: The cost associated with placement at the fifth step of the salary range is within the Department of Conservation and Development's budget. BACKGROUND: On September 16, 2008, the Board of Supervisors announced the appointment of Catherine Kutsuris to the position of Director of Conservation and Development-Exempt. The department is a merger of the previous Building Inspection and Community Development Departments. Prior to her appointment as Director, Ms. Kutsuris served as the Interim Deputy Director of Conservation and Development and Deputy Director for the Community Development Department, Advanced and Current Planning Divisions. Ms. Kutsuris has worked in the County Community Development Department for over 21 years. One of her first projects as a young planner was preparing the first countywide Hazardous Materials Waste Management Plan in 1989.

Most recently, Ms. Kutsuris spearheaded the implementation of the Planner by Appointment Program which allows residents and businesses in the unincorporated County to meet with planners in their local community rather than coming all the way to Martinez to review their land use project. County Salary Regulation 4.1 does not provide for promotional salary increases above five percent, or, the next higher step in the salary range. Therefore, to secure the appointment of the person most qualified for the position, we are requesting that the County Salary Regulations Section 4.1 be waived, and that the Board of Supervisors adopt a resolution permitting the hiring of Catherine Kutsuris, Director of Conservation and Development-Exempt, at the fifth step of the salary range. The effective date of this appointment is September 24, 2008. Ms. Kutsuris' base salary will be $159,355.20. Her total compensation will be $257,631.40, which includes her base salary plus added pay (automobile allowance and longevity) and total benefits. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: If this action is not approved, the Department of Conservation and Development will be unable to compensate the incumbent appropriately considering her background and expertise. � 7 . &f & �c o � k ` � 7 � co \ J \ % ¢ . $ � f � � % $ % \ / k - � \ . lo � \ � ƒ F - THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF CONTRA COSTA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA September 23, 2008 b the following vote: Adopted this Order on _ _ y g AYES: GIOIA, UILKEMA, PIEPHO, BONILLA&GLOVER NOES: NONE ABSENT: NONE ABSTAIN: 'NONE I I SUBJECT: In the Matter of Appointing the Director of ) RESOLUTION NO. 2008/1640 Conservation and Development-Exempt ) and Adjusting the Salary Step Placement ) for the Incumbent in the Classification ) WHEREAS the Board of Supervisors has chosen to appoint an existing County employee and wants to compensate the individual at the fifth step of the salary range; WHEREAS County Salary Regulation 4.1 does not provide for advanced step placement for existing County employees; WHEREAS there is a need to recognize and compensate the incumbent in the Director of Conservation and Development-Exempt classification based on her relevant training and experience beyond the minimum qualifications and her ability to make a significant contribution to the department; THE CONTRA COSTA COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS in its capacity as governing Board of the County of Contra Costa and all districts of which it is ex-officio governing Board RESOLVES THAT: Effective on the date noted below, the salary step placement of the named employee in the classification of Director of Conservation and Development-Exempt shall be as follows: Employee Name Employee Number New Salary Step Effective Date Catherine Kutsuris 43337 5 September 24, 2008 I HEREBY CERTIFY THAT THIS IS A TRUE AND CORRECT COPY OF AN ACTION TAKEN AND ENTERED ON THE MINUTES OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS ON THE DATE SHOWN.
