HomeMy WebLinkAboutMINUTES - 03032015 - C.34RECOMMENDATION(S):
ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 21601 to cancel one (1) full-time Executive Secretary-Exempt (J3T5)
(unrepresented) vacant position No. 5998 and add one (1) full-time Community Library Manager (3AGG)
(represented) position at salary plan and grade ZAX-1624 ($5,381 - $6,872) at the Library Department, Martinez.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Upon approval, this action will result in an annual savings to the Library Fund of approximately $2,194. No fiscal
impact to the County General Fund. This position is funded in the Library budget.
BACKGROUND:
In the formulation of its Strategic Plan, the Library conducted broad outreach to its patrons through a community
survey, key informant interviews and town hall meetings. In response to the public’s comments, the Library carefully
evaluated its staffing and determined that it could better meet service needs, outreach and marketing objectives by
adding a full-time Community Library Manager position at the Martinez Library. The Senior Community Library
Manager assigned to the Clayton Library currently provides oversight of the Martinez Library in a limited capacity.
The addition of a Community Library Manager assigned full-time to the Martinez location will help balance the
workload, strengthen infrastructure stability, and add a new promotional opportunity for existing staff. The Library
recommends canceling the Executive Secretary-Exempt position as tasks performed are more appropriately
distributed among other administrative staff.
