SUBJECT: Exemption of Director of the Office of Children
Services Classification
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Ordinance No. 2007-20 to exempt from the Merit System the classification of Director of the Office of Children
Services in the County Administrator's Office.
FISCAL IMPACT
None
BACKGROUND
The Director of the Office of Children Services is a single position classification responsible for monitoring the range of
children's services including revenue enhancement strategies, coordination and integration of County and contracted
services; conduct strategic planning regarding children services programs; and evaluating department performance
measures and outcomes. Since this classification is a high-echelon position within the County Administrator's Office,
responsible for determining and advocating substantive program policy, the classification should be exempt. County
Counsel has amended the Ordinance as required for exempting this position, pending Board approval.
RESULT OF NEGATIVE ACTION
If this action is not approved, the County Administrator will not be able to ensure maximum responsiveness of this high-
echelon classification. Furthermore, the flexibility in filling this highly important position will be significantly
compromised.
