Re: Ordinance No. 43-03 Amending Certain Sections of the City Compensation Plan
SUMMARY:
Attached for your consideration, please find Ordinance No. 43-03 amending certain sections of the City
Compensation Plan (Ordinance No. 98-96). This Ordinance is regarded as companion legislation to
Ordinance No. 42-03, which involves the amendment of the City Organization Chart. All proposed
amendments to the Compensation Plan relate directly to the re-organization proposed within Ordinance
No. 42-03. Passage of Ordinance 43-03 would accomplish the following:
? The re-titling of the Director of Finance, Director of Service, and Director of Development
positions to Deputy City Manager/Director of Finance, Deputy City Manager/Director of
Service, and Deputy City Manager/Director ofDevelopment respectively. Presently, these
three Department Head positions carry the working title of Assistant City Manager, in
conjunction with their formal classification titles. The proposed amendment will formally
establish the classification title of "Deputy City Manager" within the City's classification and
compensation system. This re-titling will better reflect "second-in-command" nature of these
positions.
? The reclassification of the existing "Management Assistant" position to "Assistant City
Manager" and reassignment of this classification from Pay Grade 9 ($46,184 - $67,544) to
Pay Grade 11 ($54,974 - $80,397). This classification's changing role has been re-evaluated
(quantitatively) using the established job evaluation instrument ("Position Appraisal
Method"). Based upon the changing concept/nature of the job and the proposed evolution in
duties/responsibilities, Staff has concluded that this classification should be reassigned to Pay
Grade 11.
? Deletion of the last paragraph under Section 2.A. of the Compensation Plan, which presently
authorizes the City Manager to assign the "Assistant City Manager" title (as a working title)
to any existing Department/Division Head classification title. (The intent of the paragraph
was to allow the City Manager the flexibility to informally confer the "Assistant City
Manager" title upon aDepartment/Division Head in conjunction with their formal
classification title; hence the title was not a formalized classification title.) Given the above-
mentioned amendments regarding the "Deputy City Manager" and "Assistant City Manager"
classification titles, this paragraph is no longer functional.
? Creation of a new "Assistant Director of Streets & Utilities" position/classification and the
authorization to fill this position, by promotion, without a competitive selection process.
Staff has determined that the volume, scope, and complexity of work within the Division of
Streets & Utilities necessitates the creation of a higher-level management position. This
position's role has been evaluated (quantitatively) via the established job evaluation system,
which reflects that this position should be assigned to Pay Grade 10 ($50,387 - $73,692).
Given that there is a uniquely qualified internal candidate for this position, Staff proposes
that this position be filled internally, by promotion, without a competitive election process.
(Section 6.06(a) of the Revised Dublin Charter authorizes Council to provide for
appointments and promotions through means other than the normal competitive selection
process.)
Passage of this legislation will also amend the 2003 Annual Appropriations. These amendments involve
the appropriation and transfer of funds to address the salary and benefit impacts associated with the
structural reorganization proposed by Ordinance No. 42-03.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the attached legislation (Ordinance No. 43-03) be adopted by Council at the
second reading on Apri121, 2003.
