By: PERSONNEL COMMITTEE - John J. McDonald, Chairperson
IN RE: PERSONNEL DEPARTMENT REQUEST TO CREATE A NEW CLASSIFICATION
AND UPWARDLY RECLASSIFY AN EXISTING POSITION
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
Mr. Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS effective Personnel management requires considerable
attention to the numerous legal issues in areas such as labor relations,
employment contracts, due process in discipline, civil rights, employment
discrimination and affirmative action; and
WHEREAS the County will benefit from additional legal assistance
in meeting existing needs; and
WHEREAS the Personnel Department has an opportunity to improve
its consideration of legal matters through the use of in-house counsel
and thereby assist Corporation Counsel in handling the increasing workload;
and
WHEREAS the costs of the proposed new classification and position
upgrading will be offset by an immediate savings in a currently budgeted
line item for outside counsel; and
WHEREAS there may be savings to the County in future years
from more thorough attention to potential legal issues earlier in the
decision making process; and
WHEREAS this reclassification and position upgrading will facilitate
other Personnel Department organizational efficiencies; and
WHEREAS these changes will not require any additional positions
or an increase in the current budget.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that a new classification of Associate
Corporation Counsel - Personnel be created with the following salary
range:
Base 6 Month 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 0/T
41,851 42,977 44,105 45,228 46,356 No
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the existing Manager - Selection,
Placement & E.E.O. position (503202) be upwardly reclassified to Associate
Corporation Counsel - Personnel.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Legal Expense line item
(#4-1.0100-.156-01-00-3456) in the 1986 Budget be reduced from $10,000
to $4,000.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that should the incumbent in this position
leave the Personnel Department, the position will be reevaluated by the
Personnel Committee before replacement.
