FINANCIAL Sufficient funds have been included in the FY 1990-91 budget.
STATEMENT:
DESCRIPTION: On June 26, 1990, the City Council approved the 1990-91 budget.
The budget includes funding for several additional positions including the Assistant
City Engineer position. It is proposed that this position would replace the
part-time contract Assistant City Engineer position. This position would also
provide transportation planning, public works contract supervision, budget
development and capital improvement planning.
In developing the proposed job specifications and salary range for this new
position, staff has surveyed other local agencies. Consequently, staff has found
that the title Senior Civil Engineer is more appropriate for the City of Dublin's
new position. Included in the annual budget is a Position Allocation Plan. The
establishment of a Senior Civil Engineer position would require that the 1990-91
Position Allocation Plan be modified to replace the "Assistant City Engineer" title
with "Senior Civil Engineer."
Pursuant to the City's Personnel Rules, a job description and salary range must be
adopted for each position in the organization. The job description typically
includes essential characteristics, knowledge, skills, abilities and requirements of
the position. Staff has prepared a job description which addresses the City's
needs. In addition, staff has compared the proposed job description with job
specifications of similar positions in other agencies.
Also included in the City's Personnel Rules are salary plans for full and part-time
positions. , The salary plans indicate the minimum and maximum salaries for each
position. Based on a survey of other agencies and review of the City's current
salary ranges, staff has developed a salary range for the Senior Civil Engineer
position.
Staff recommends that City Council review the proposed job description and salary
range, and adopt the revised 1990-91 Position Allocation Plan and the necessary
resolutions.
