Attachment A 546 Community Development Customer Service Rep./Permit Technician*$2,200 547 Public Works Environmental Specialist to Environmental Manager*$2,700 548 549 Total$11,650 550 Total Levy Impact(Net)$6,750 551 552*Costs for these position adjustmentswill be paid for with non-levy funds. 553 554 New Position Levy Supported 555 I am recommending that an Administrative Department intern be officially incorporated into the 556 2021. Over the years, the Administration Department has been able to host an intern for short 557 periods of time at low cost for special projectsbyassemblingsmall amounts of unused dollars 558 fromthe Administration Department budget.Assistant City Manager Rebecca Olson has been 559 successful in recruiting persons of color who are studying government and/or public 560 administration to work for the city on a limited basis. This budget request would officially 561 incorporate the Administration Department Intern position into the city budget at a cost of 562$15,000.The intern would continue to be a student studying or recently graduated from the field 563 of Public Administration and/or Government with special focus on persons of color. 564 565 City Manager Recommendation Add One Administration Department Intern 566 Position 567 2021 Levy Impact: $15,000 568 569 New PositionsNon-Levy Supported 570 In addition to the new positions mentioned previously, the2021 budget includes funding for two 571 new positions:a building inspector in Community Development and one License Center 572 Customer Service Representative. Both new positions will be funded from fees collected by the 573 Cityand not impact the tax levy. 574 575 Building Inspector 576 The Community DevelopmentDepartment is proposing the addition of a building inspector. 577 Thisadditional inspector is primarily driven by the expansion plans at Rosedale Center and 578 their expected timeline for construction commencement in 2021. The following is noted 579 related to this request: 580-family apartment 581 units, two hotels with up to 350 rooms, 90,000 SF of office space, and up to an 582 additional 200,000 SF of retail space. While all of these elements will not be added at 583 once, staff could easily envision this project needing a building inspector every day for 584 multiple hours, putting a greater burden on the existing staff to complete inspections 585 elsewhere throughout the City. st 586 Staff has no intention of filling this position on January 1, rather, we will wait to hire 587 the position until we are relatively certain the Rosedale project will startin 2021. 588 In anticipation of hiring an additional Building Inspector, temporary wages for a 589 seasonal employeehave been removed from the 2021 budget with the understanding 590 that the additional FTE will be sufficient to cover the added seasonal work. 591 If the Rosedale plans do not proceed in 2021, instead of hiring the FTE, we would hire 592 a seasonal. This scenario would result in a cost-savings. 593 Page 17of 19
