CONSENT CALENDAR
Subject: AMENDMENT #6 TO ALLOCATED POSITIONS AND
COMPENSATION PLAN
FROM: David H. Ready, City Manager
BY: Public Works Department— Fleet Operations Division
SUMMARY:
Request to City Council for approval of one (1) over hire of Fleet Maintenance
Technician Il.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that City Council adopt the Resolution approving Amendment #6 to
the Allocated Positions and Compensation Plan authorizing one (1) Fleet Maintenance
Technician II over hire in the Fleet Operations Division of the Public Works Department.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
The Fleet Operations Division is responsible for the maintenance, repair, and
replacement of all city vehicles and equipment including police and fire units. The total
number of vehicles and equipment managed by the division today is 474 units.
Due to a combination of circumstances, including efficiency improvements, budget
deficits, retirements, re-organizations, and injuries, the number of assigned technicians
today is four (4). Of the four (4) assigned technicians, two (2) are currently unavailable
due to injury and are on Workers Compensation. One of the positions is likely not to
return to active work status.
To maintain the Division's ability to properly serve our fleet, the over hire position is
necessary to bridge the gap created by injured employees. In the event the one injured
employee returns to active status, the over hire would be re-evaluated and/or remedied
through attrition.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The cost will be covered by savings in salary from the vacancies, as Workers
Compensation payments are made through the Risk Management fund.
