RECOMMENDATION
title
Adopt a Resolution to amend the Departmental Allocation List for Public Works, with no net increase to full-time equivalents, effective January 18, 2025. (No Fiscal Impact; Discretionary)
body
BACKGROUND
In April of 2023, a limited term Assistant Engineer position was approved by this Board through June 30, 2025, to assist with several projects related to the damage sustained to the County during the 2023 Winter Storm. Recently, this Board provided direction on implementation of the Facilities Master Plan which will result in additional capital improvement projects requiring delivery and construction through at least the next five years. Additionally, with the passage of Measure U, the transportation sales tax will continue and provides $25 million annually for the next thirty years. This position would support any road projects stemming from Measure U. As a result, a regular full-time position is recommended.
The current limited term Assistant Engineer is funded through the end of the fiscal year and will be budgeted for accordingly in the future.
Requested Action:
Adopt a Resolution to amend the Departmental Allocation List for Public Works, by adding a 1.0 FTE Assistant Engineer and deleting a 1.0 FTE Assistant Engineer, Limited Term through June 30, 2025, effective January 18, 2025.
