Cisterman, Director of Personnel Costa « _ s County DATE: December 3, 1992 . r°`r�c6uK c SUBJECT: Suspension of Competition - Pam Novak SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION RECOMMENDATION Acknowledge receipt of report on Suspension of Competition and direct appointment. BACKGROUND Section 502, Suspension of Competition, provides that the Director of Personnel may suspend competition and authorize a direct appointment to merit system positions where use of competitive examination procedures are impractical. It also requires that a report of these suspensions of competition giving the reason(s) shall be reported to the Board of Supervisors on a monthly basis. In accordance with the above regulation, I am authorizing the direct appointment of Pam Novak, Sheriff's Property Technician II to a vacant Supervising Sheriff's Property Technician position in the Sheriff-Coroner's Department. A competitive examination process is impractical because the department head has indicated that the only employee left in the Property Bureau is Ms. Novak. Since Supervising Sheriff's Property Technician requires experience in a law enforcement agency at the level of Sheriff's Property Technician II, the department notes that it is highly unlikely that any other candidates other than Ms. Novak would meet the minimum qualifications for the position. Finally, the appointment of Ms. Novak will allow the department to backfill her position through the return of a laid-off employee. The fact that it is highly unlikely that anyone meets the requirements for Supervising Sheriff's Property Technician and the Sheriff-Coroner would select Ms. Novak from the staff in his department makes the conduct of an examination for this position impractical.
