FUNDING: N/A

DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND
The El Dorado County Air Quality Management District’s (District) Personnel Allocation had previously been incorporated with the Personnel Allocation of the County of El Dorado.
In July 2018 (Legistar # 18-1097 and Resolution 156-2018), the Board of Directors of the Air Quality Management District (Board) approved:
1) Separating out the District’s personnel allocations from the County of El Dorado; and
2) The District’s FY 2018/19 Authorized Personnel Allocation.
The classifications approved at this time consisted of the following:
• Air Pollution Control Officer
• Air Quality Engineer
• Air Quality Specialist I/II
• Development Aide II
• Sr. Air Quality Specialist
• Sr. Department Analyst
The goal is that the District has a separate classification plan than the County. Therefore, Human Resources has been working with the District to 1) review its structure and 2) implement District-specific classifications. In doing so, Human Resources is requesting the Board approve the following:
• Air Quality Administrative Analyst
o New classification.
§ Reclassify one (1.0 FTE) position from Sr. Department Analyst to Air Quality Administrative Analyst, and abolish the Sr. Department Analyst classification within the District.
§ For lateral reclassifications where the position is reclassified to a class that is allocated to the same salary range as the class of the position before it was reclassified, the salary of the employee shall not change in accordance with Personnel Rule 1312.1. The salary ranges of the two classifications are the same; therefore, there will be no salary step movement for the current incumbent.
• Air Quality Technician I/II
§ New classification.
ALTERNATIVES
The Board could choose not to adopt and approve any of the recommendations listed herein and request that revisions be made.
OTHER DEPARTMENT / AGENCY INVOLVEMENT
Air Quality Management District, Chief Administrative Office, and El Dorado County Employees’ Association (Local 1)
