ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 20765 to reclassify one Network
Administrator II position (represented) to Network Manager (represented) in the Office of
the Public Defender.
FISCAL IMPACT:
$9,144 annually; $4,572 in fiscal year 2009/10. Increased personnel costs will be borne by
the department's operational budget.
BACKGROUND:
Over the past ten years there evolved a number of approaches to building and supporting our
department's information technology network. Early on, a single network administrator was
supported by either personnel from DOIT or contracted support from an independent
contractor. More recently, the Office, at various times, has had 1.5 FTE positions dedicated
to information technology support. Much of the workload over this period varied depending
on office-wide technological

Subject:RECLASSIFY one Network Administrator II (LTNB) position to Information Systems Manager (LNSB) in
the Office of the Public Defender
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
upgrades including servers, mass desktop computer replacements, etc. Two years ago, the
current Network Administrator became the sole information technology employee for the
Office.
Other Justice departments in the County, including those of comparable size, minimally
have two information technology positions assigned. The Public Defender's Office is
requesting the reclassification of our sole information technology position to reflect the
volume and complexity of work currently assigned to the incumbent. This request is in
lieu of hiring additional personnel in the information technology ranks within our
department, which would ultimately result in a significant increase in costs to the County
via the Department's budget. The proposed reclassification would result in increased
costs of $9,144 annually and will be absorbed in the Public Defender budget.
As is the new process with reclassification requests, the CAO budget staff has been
consulted and it was determined that the increased workload and responsibility cannot be
redistributed to other staff in the department since there is only one IT position. Prior to
the implementation of these new procedures, a freeze exemption was approved for this
action in July, 2009 and a letter of support was issued by the Chief Information Officer at
that time.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this request is not approved the incumbent will be inappropriately classified for the
duties that he is responsible for performing.
