C. 24
To:Board of Supervisors
From:Theresa Speiker, Chief Assistant County Administrator
Date:May 7, 2013
Contra
Costa
County
Subject:Cancel One Clerk Specialist Level Position and Add One Secretary-Advanced level, for staff support to Assessment
Appeals Board
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
in order to decide critical legal, economic, and financial property taxation and assessment issues. The Board
receives support from a staff person in the Clerk of the Board of Supervisor's office who is assigned as the
Assessment Appeals Board Clerk.
A recent vacancy has required the recruitment and hiring of a new Assessment Appeals Board Clerk. This
position was previously held by an employee in classification JWXD - Clerk, Specialist Level at a maximum
annual salary of $49,884. Because of the critical importance of the duties of the Assessment Appeals Board clerk,
including processing critical documents, complying with highly specific administrative procedures, and attending
and documenting Assessment Appeals Board hearings, the County Administrator is recommending that the
position be upgraded to that of J3TG - Secretary-Advanced level at a maximum annual salary of $52,020.
Including estimated benefits, the net annual increased cost of the proposed substitution is estimated at $9,876. This
increased costs will be incorporated in the existing budget for the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Disapproval of the request would result in hiring an Assessment Appeals Board Clerk in a lower classification
than recommended, and could impede the most effective administration of Assessment Appeals Board business.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
No impact.
