Chairperson, on behalf of the Strategic Planning Committee, I move acceptance of the foregoing report. STRATEGIC PLANNING COMMITTEE Strategic Planning Committee Vote: Motion carried unanimously on a roll call vote. It% May 21, 1998 Miscellaneous Resolution #98127 BY: Personnel Committee, Thomas A. Law, Chairperson RE: Information Technology - Creation of new Digital Information Services Center (DISC) division To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen: Whereas the Digital Information Service Center (DISC) is currently a unit under the Systems Development division of Information Technology; and Whereas the DISC concept is to initially provide the three primary functions of a County Geographical Information System (GIS), a Data Warehouse, and Enhanced Access; and Whereas the short-term goal of the GIS plan is to automate the 430,000 existing parcel records and then convert them into the ARC/Info Parcel Coverage format. The long term goal is to maintain and manage the parcel geometry and quality control, as well as provide the digital parcel information to user departments, cities, villages and townships, and to the general public through an Enhanced Access System; and Whereas concurrent with a strategy for GIS implementation, the County is developing a Data Warehouse concept to provide a method to transform the County's descriptive data assets into decision making information, and provide data storage, archive, and retrieval services; and Whereas the focus of the rapidly developing areas of GIS, Data Warehouse, and Enhanced Access is sufficiently different from the software development tasks of the Systems Development division to warrant separate organizational status; and Whereas implementation of the DISC concept requires recognition of the DISC organizationally as a division to effectively consolidate and integrate employee and capital resources; and Whereas a re-alignment of certain positions within the Systems Development division is necessary to effectively implement the new DISC division. NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the following personnel related changes be made: 1) A new Division be created within the Information Technology Department titled Digital Information Service Center (DISC) with units of Administration, GIS Utility and Data Warehouse/Enhanced Access. 2) That the following six positions of the DISC unit within Systems Development division be transferred to the new division and placed in the GIS Utility unit: Supv I - Systems Development (#18201-04694), Applications Analyst/Programmer II (#18201-07835), Network Systems Analyst I (#18201-01596), GS Enterprise Data Technicians (*18201- 00204 and #18201-00273), and Student Engineer (#18201-00046). Personnel Committee Vote: Motion carried on unanimous roll call vote with Holbert absent. 3) A new classification of Manager - Digital Information Service Center be created with the following salary range: Base 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 Year _O/I_ $68,422 $72,543 $76,659 $80,775 $84,893 $89,013 Exempt 4) That Chief - Systems DeveLopment position #18201-01055 be transferred to the Administration unit of the new division and reclassified to Manager - Digital Information Service Center. 5) That Application Analyst/Programmer II positions 18201-07408& 18201-00881 be transferred to the Data Warehouse/Enhanced Access unit of the DISC division. 6) That vacant Application Analyst/Programmer III position 18201-04726 be rP.rinssifipd to Supv I - Systems Development, and transferred to the Data Warehouse/Enhanced Access unit of the new DISC division. 7) That the unit and the following four positions of the Data Base Administration unit be transferred to the Technical Systems & Networking division: Supervisor II - Systems Development (#18201- 04697), and three Data Base Administrator positions (#18201-03063, #18201-05782, and #13201 -08023).
