SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING THREE NEW
CLASSIFICATIONS AND SALARIES AND UPDATING SALARIES OF
THREE EXISTING CLASSIFICATIONS
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Find that the proposed action herein is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA guidelines Section 15061 (b)(3) (Common Sense Exemption); and
2. Adopt a Resolution Establishing Three New Classifications and Salaries and Updating Salaries of Three Existing Classifications.
BACKGROUND:
The Human Resources Department's Employment Services Division is responsible for managing classification and compensation work for the City.
As part of the recently adopted FY2024 Operating Budget, additional FTEs were added to the PRCS Department Budget to staff a new year-round Aquatics program at the Robinson Park Pool, which is expected to be open to the public in September 2023.
Human Resources recommends establishing three new full-time classifications to adequately staff the enhanced year-round program. The PRCS department conducted a salary survey of agencies with aquatics programs and recommends increases to the below hourly rates to support the City's ability to recruit and retain skilled personnel in a highly competitive labor market.
Below is a summary of the classifications recommended for creation and/or control rate adjustment.

Adopt a Resolution Establishing Three New Classifications and Updating Salaries of Three Existing Classifications
July 31, 2023
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval and implementation of the new classifications and salaries will have a fiscal impact of up to $173,000 in FY2024 (pro-rated for ten months). The maximum fiscal impact of this recommendation is approximately $255,000 annually, which will be realized when the incumbents are all at the control rate for a full year. 100% of the cost is funded directly through the General Fund and will be absorbed by existing appropriations. However, staff will monitor personnel expenses and request a supplemental appropriation during the fiscal year if necessary.
