SUMMARY: The Planning and Engineering Division has employed a limited-term Project Manager since January 2016 to provide training to Water Demand Division staff on the Water Distribution System permit process, as well as for providing assistance to the public regarding more complex permits. The need for this training and support will continue in FY 2017-2018. Additionally, the limited-term employee is needed to complete the Planning and Engineering file room reorganization project that involves going through file cabinets and determining those documents that will be selected to be converted digital format, streamlining the reference process and eliminating unnecessary and redundant materials. The contract would be for up to 357 hours at $50.22 per hour. The limited-term employee would not receive any benefits, other than those mandated by state and federal law.
RECOMMENDATION: Authorize
the expenditure of funds to hire a limited-term Project Manager for up to 357
hours of work from July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2018. Approval of this item will be contingent upon
final adoption of the FY 2017-2018 budget by the Board.
IMPACTS TO STAFF/RESOURCES: The cost to the District for the limited-term contract described above would not exceed $20,000. Funding for this position is included in the proposed FY 2017-2018 budget. Some of the work on water distribution system permits would be reimbursable from the applicants.
