SUMMARY: On March 21, 2016, the Board authorized the creation of an Assistant Water Resources Engineer Position, and approved recruitment for candidates within the Engineering Career Ladder. At that time, staff indicated that if a candidate were to be selected at the Assistant Water Resources Engineer or Water Resources Engineer level, the Board would be requested to authorize a change in the District Organization Chart to replace the current Senior Water Resources Engineer position.

After an extensive recruitment and interviews of five candidates, it was determined by the interview panel that the best qualified candidate was an individual who had applied at the Water Resources Engineer level. That person will be starting on August 1, 2016.

RECOMMENDATION: Authorize a change from the current District Organization Chart with a Senior Water Resources Engineer position (Exhibit 8-A) to the proposed Organization Chart with a Water Resources Engineer position (Exhibit 8-B).
