FROM: C. E. Dixon, Interim County Contra Administrator Costa
DATE: May 16, 1984 County
SUBJECT: Office Hours, Office of County Clerk
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
REQUEST:
Approve the request of the County Clerk-Recorder that the County Clerk's Office will
be open to the public daily except Saturdays, Sundays, and fblidays during the hours
of 8:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M. , effective July 1 , 1984.
BACKGROUND:
The County Clerk-Recorder has determined that due to the level of work and availability
of staff that it is necessary to close the Office of the County Clerk to the public
at 4:00 P.M. daily. The one hour of "non-public" time will be used by staff to complete
required filings and other court-related documents which have set deadlines. The
offices in Martinez and Richmond will be open to staff of the Courts and other County
staff, as designated. Arrangements will be made to accept material from the public
after 4:00 P.M. which will be held for recording the next morning.
This matter has been discussed with staff of the department, representatives of
Employee Organizations, and Employee Relations Unit of Personnel , and it was agreed
that this recommendation would be presented to your Board for action. The matter
was presented to the Superior Court Judges, who voted, in the fall of 1983, not to
take a position on the hours of operations.
Upon review, our office recommends the approval of the request, with the understanding
that the policy become effective on July 1 , 1984 and that it be evaluated at the end
of a six-month period.
