Form B-3 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />REQUEST FOR PERSONAL SERVICE CHANGES <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Department: <br /> <br />Administration <br />Supervisor: <br /> <br />Human Resources Manager <br />Position Title: <br /> <br />PT Communications Coordinator <br />Budget Impact: $0 ($60,405 Less $40K Trf <br />from Cable TV/Communications Fund Less <br />$20,405 Savings to General Fund w/ <br />Elimination of PT Office Specialist position in <br />2020) <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Justification for change: <br /> <br />It has become increasingly evident that City staff does not have the ability to consistently <br />provide timely and up-to-date communication to residents, businesses, and the general public <br />via social media and the website. Staff is doing the best they can with the resources they have, <br />but regularly receive feedback about the lack of up-to-date information, and desire for a greater <br />social media presence. <br /> <br />The addition of a part-time Communications Coordinator position can be achieved without an <br />impact to the general fund budget. Funding for this position is provided for with a $40,000 <br />annual transfer from the Cable TV/Communications Fund and through the impact to the general <br />fund with the elimination of the PT Office Specialist position early in 2020. Staff is expecting to <br />realize additional savings to the general fund if newsletter design can be brought in-house. <br /> <br />Council provided staff with authorization at July 7 Work Session to include the PT <br />Communications Coordinator position in the 2021 Preliminary Budget. <br />16
