SUMMARY: On
December 12, 2016, the District entered in to an
Agreement for Management and Administrative Services with Regional Government
Services (RGS). The Agreement was for a
period of six months that ended on June 30, 2017.
On June 19, 2017, the District entered in to
Amendment No. 1. The Agreement was for a
period of twelve months that ended on June 30, 2018.
On June 18, 2018, the District entered in to
Amendment No. 2. The Agreement was for a
period of twelve months that ended on June 30, 2019.
On June 17, 2019, the District entered in to
Amendment No. 3. The Agreement was for a
period of twelve months that ended on June 30, 2020.
On June 15, 2020, the District entered in to
Amendment No. 4. The Agreement was for a
period of twelve months that ended on June 30, 2021.
On June 21, 2021, the District entered in to
Amendment No. 5. The Agreement was for a
period of twelve months that will end on June 30, 2022.
Based on current experience for the past five years, staff recommends extending the services of RGS for 12 months for a not-to-exceed price of $35,000. This amendment will be from July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023.
RECOMMENDATION: The Administrative Committee should recommend that the Board authorize the
General Manager or the Administrative Services Manager/CFO to execute Amendment
No. 6 to existing Agreement with RGS to provide management and administrative
services for an amount not to exceed $35,000. The approval of this item is
contingent upon the adoption of FY 2022-2023 budget by the Board.
IMPACT TO STAFF/RESOURCES: The FY 2022-2023 budget includes funds for this service.
BACKGROUND: With
the retirement of the District’s full time Human
Resources Analyst, staff evaluated the District’s human resources need and
realized that the most efficient way to fill the position would be to contract
part-time human resources services. Since then, the District
has hired a full time HR Coordinator/Contract Specialist position that performs
daily HR related tasks. RGS will be used for more high-level HR related
functions.
RGS is a governmental, joint powers authority, formed in 2001, who exclusively serves public sector agencies. RGS will serve as a consultant for management and administrative services to provide human resources support for the District on a part-time, continuous basis and will provide onsite office hours of two four-hour days per week. Activities include researching and recommending best practices on policies, procedures, personnel transactions; coaching and training managers on sensitive performance issues; providing training on team building and conflict resolution; developing, monitoring, and managing leave of absence; conducting non-executive recruitments; and assisting in preparation of labor negotiations.
RGS has been providing services to the District since December 12, 2016, and the existing Agreement is anticipated to remain in force through June 30, 2022. RGS will assign RGS employees to serve as the Human Resources Advisor(s) to the District and will provide support by performing District’s human resources management practices, policies and systems and by providing ongoing Human Resources Management services.
