FISCAL IMPACT: The cancellation of the Real Estate Manager – Exempt (DYD1) position results in savings of $180,648, which will offset the $131,446 cost associated with adding a Supervising Real Property Agent. Overall, this action will result in a net savings of approximately $49,200 annually. BACKGROUND: In 2012, the General Services and Public Works Departments merged, bringing together two departments with different organizational structures. At that time, it was agreed that previous General Services divisions would be altered to match the Public Works divisions. This greatly impacted the Real Estate divisions previously APPROVE OTHER RECOMMENDATION OF CNTY ADMINISTRATOR RECOMMENDATION OF BOARD COMMITTEE Action of Board On: 08/12/2014 APPROVED AS RECOMMENDED OTHER Clerks Notes: VOTE OF SUPERVISORS AYE:John Gioia, District I Supervisor Candace Andersen, District II Supervisor Mary N.

ATTESTED: August 12, 2014 David Twa, County Administrator and Clerk of the Board of Supervisors By: Chris Heck, Deputy cc: Eva Barrios, Roxana Mendoza, Diane Favero C. 24 To:Board of Supervisors From:Julia R. Bueren, Public Works Director/Chief Engineer Date:August 12, 2014 Contra Costa County Subject:Add a Supervising Real Property Agent, cancel a vacant Real Estate Manager-Exempt position and abolish the Real Estate Manager-Exempt classification BACKGROUND: (CONT'D) located in both departments since there were two Division Managers – the Principal Real Property Agent (represented) and the Real Estate Manager (exempt). During the merge, the Real Estate division was organized so that the Principal Real Property Agent would remain as Division Manager over the newly formed group and the Real Estate Manager – Exempt would act as a Supervisor, similar to the Supervising Real Property Agents already in place, and report to the Principal Real Property Agent which caused some issues. The exempt position no longer met the requirements to be an exempt classification since it reported to a Division Manager who was represented. Additionally, the Real Estate Manager was performing equivalent duties to the Supervising Real Property Agents, but being compensated at a higher rate and different benefits. These issues could not be addressed previously, because the Real Estate Manager – Exempt position was not vacant. However, since the previous incumbent retired as of July 11, 2014, the department would like to move forward with implementing these changes. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: If this action is not adopted, the Real Estate Manager – Exempt position would be compensated at a higher rate for performing the same duties as the other Supervising Real Property Agents. Additionally, the Real Estate Manager – Exempt position would be the only position in the division to have “exempt” status, without meeting the requirements to be an “exempt” classification.
