plan and grade ZB5 1444 ($4,514-$5,487) in the Department of Conservation and Development.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The annual cost for this position is approximately $115,000, of which approximately $25,000 represent pension
costs. All costs will be fully covered by land development funds and will be partially offset by a reduction in
contracted service costs, resulting in no fiscal impact to the County General Fund.

Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS) to the State Department of Finance that provides expenditure details on

months.

this work in-house for greater efficiency, control and cost effectiveness. The reorganization and redistribution
