HomeMy WebLinkAboutMINUTES - 12162014 - C.39RECOMMENDATION(S):
ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 21575 to add four (4) Planner I (5AWA) (represented) positions at
salary plan and grade ZB5 1476 ($4,659 - $5,137) in the Department of Conservation and Development.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No impact to County General Fund. The annual cost for these four (4) new positions is approximately $368,000.
These new positions will be funded by land development fees, grant programs and other special revenues.
BACKGROUND:
Increased and increasingly complex program activities in Current Planning, Solid Waste and Energy Conservation,
Housing Program and the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program require the addition of one (1)
planner in each area to assure timely processing of projects. Land use applications in Current Planning have risen and
increased staffing is necessary for the Department to continue to meet state mandated requirements and timelines.
The CDBG program is beginning its annual grant application cycle for funding requests from hundreds of community
organizations serving low and moderate income areas of the county; additionally, assistance is needed in the HOME
investment Partnership Act Program, the Housing for Persons with Aids (HOPWA), and the Emergency Solutions
Grant Housing Program. The Bay Area Regional Energy Network (BayREN) requires outreach efforts for the grant
from the State Energy Commission, administered by the Association of Bay Area Governments and distributed to
local governments, to help increase energy efficiency in office and residential buildings.
