SUMMARY: The District’s Planning & Engineering Manager/District Engineer, Larry Hampson, recently retired after 28 years of service. This position oversaw the Water Resources and Engineering Division. Rather than filling the vacant Planning & Engineering Manager/District Engineer position, the General Manager proposes to convert the Senior Hydrogeologist position to Water Resources Manager position to manage the staff and functions of the Water Resources Division. This staff member currently in the Senior Hydrogeologist position will assume additional higher-level management duties associated with directing, managing, and supervising the programs and activities of the Water Resources Division. This position will report directly to the General Manager.
A job description for this
converted position is attached as Exhibit
25-A.
The position would be placed at Range 53-D on the
District’s current salary schedule, whereas the previous Planning &
Engineering Manager/District Engineer was at Range 55-E.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Board authorize the conversion of the Senior
Hydrogeologist position to Water Resources Manager and associated salary range.
IMPACTS TO STAFF/RESOURCES: The cost differential between salary range 49-E (Senior Hydrogeologist) and salary range 53-D (Water Resources Manager) will be $21,000 in salary and benefits.
