BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
for this position. In addition, due to the nature of the work, which is sensitive and specific to the classification, it is
clear the individual currently performing the duties would have a significant advantage over competing applicants. As
a result, the Director of Human Resources has concluded that a Merit System recruitment for this position would be
impractical, an unwise expenditure of County resources, and manifestly unfair to competing candidates.
In accordance with the above regulations, the Director of Human Resources, is authorizing a direct appointment into
the classification of Senior Deputy County Administrator in the County Administrator's Office.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Job duties will not be permanently aligned with employee classifications.
