Incumbent’s current salary step As part of the Strategic Plan initiative to implement a revised organizational structure, staff is incorporating broad class concepts. Broad class concepts describe highly similar positions in a class, which usually results in a lesser number of class specifications. Broad classes focus on broader knowledge, skills and abilities (KSA’s) common to a large number of positions. There is a less exact fit of the employee to the position in this design but management flexibility is greatly expanded. Based on the broad class concept, staff is recommending that the City Clerk / Human Resource Manager position be reclassified to the same job class as the Parks & Recreation / Community Service Manager and Community Development Director positions. For your information, the following are some additional definitions that will be included in the Personnel Policy as it is updated in the coming months. DEFINITIONS Job Class: The positions in the Classification Plan grouped by similar in duties, authority, and responsibility as to permit grouping under a common title and the application of common equity standards for selection, compensation, and personnel procedures. Classification Plan: A record of all positions in the City of Little Canada work force that includes title, typical duties and responsibilities, statement of training, experience, and other qualifications; all positions that are similar with respect to duties, responsibility, and character of work are included in the same class and may have the same compensation under the same working conditions. Reclassification: The reassignment of a position or group of positions to the classification plan that most accurately reflects the duties being performed and responsibility level. FISCAL IMPACT The cost of this increased salary range for the reclassified position is a total of approximately $3,700 annually or 4.28% over the range of the current classification. This amount was included in the 2021 operating budget. RECOMMENDED ACTION Adopt the attached Resolution for the job classifications of City Clerk / Human Resource Manager
