Explanation
This ordinance amends the Management Compensation Plan by updating Section 5, Classifications and Assigned Rates of Pay, as a result of Civil Service Commission action and by assigning or adjusting pay grades assigned to new or existing classifications. These changes are all the result of a realignment of departmental responsibilities with respect to the management of the city's assets, placing those responsibilities within the Finance Department, which is being renamed the Department of Finance and Management, to better reflect its new function and purpose.
The Civil Service Commission revised and retitled the Finance Director (U) classification to read Finance and Management Director (U), in conjunction with the renaming of the department. It is recommended that the classification be assigned a Pay Grade 99 ($87,880-($146,453), given the major responsibility and citywide scope of the position.
The Civil Service Commission created the classification of Assistant Director (Asset Management) (U) to assist the Department Director in the direction of asset management activities for the city, including leading and coordinating the work of the Facilities Management Division and Real Estate Management Office, both of which will be housed in the expanded Department of Finance and Management. It is recommended that the classification be assigned a Pay Grade 96 ($73,008-$109,533), given the major responsibility and citywide scope of the position.
Finally, it is recommended that the Financial Management Administrator classification be revised and retitled to read Financial Management Division Administrator. This change recognizes Financial Management section as a formalized division within the Department of Finance and Management. The Financial Management Division Administrator will be responsible for directing the Division of Financial Management within the Department of Finance and Management.
