The staffing alternative that the HRA chose to pursue is to: <br />r� <br />�_ <br />.�. <br />IS <br />�� <br />o Name the Community Development Director as its Executive Director; <br />o Seek the creation of a part-time (20 hours/week} Housing Coordinator position, <br />and; <br />o Utilize a portion (8 hours per week) of the Community Development Senior <br />Office Assistant's time. <br />1� This action by the HRA is based on discussion that has been evolving over the last <br />1� several months and that was forecasted to the City Council at their December 18,2006 <br />} � meeting. <br />��a <br />,� <br />� <br />� <br />�� <br />��i <br />�� <br />��i <br />Purpose of Proposed Cha��es <br />The T��tA's purpose in seeking ihese staffing changes is to: <br />A) Maintain better integration between City activities and HRA activities by having <br />staff that is common to both; <br />B) More efficiently operate the HRA by having more staff hours dedicated to its <br />staffing within their existing budget. <br />Past HRA Staffin� <br />�? In 2006, the HRA employed contract employee Cathy Bennett as its Executive Director <br />�� at aaa hourly rate of $80.D0. The annual costs of Ms. Bennett's services was capped at <br />?� $45,000 (meaning that if she were to bill for all of her hours, she would be devoting <br />�� approximately 11 hours per week to the HRA — in reality, Ms. Bennett was actually <br />3] providing additional time, but was absorbing those costs). <br />3? As of January 1,2007, Ms. Bennett's hourly rate increased to $100.00 per hour— a rate <br />x� that the HRA felt it could not reasonably afford. <br />HRA Staffing Council Memo Page 1 of 3 <br />
