Regular City Council Meeting Monday,April 11,2011 Page 11 At the request of Mayor Roe, City Manager Malinen advised that the City current- ly had a broad Lieutenant job description in place, and that it would be adjusted to reflect administrative versus patrol duties, and that no formal City Council action was required to adopt a new job description. Roll Call Ayes: Willmus; Pust; Johnson; and Roe. Nays: None. Abstentions: McGehee. Motion carried. c. Consider Authorizing Creating the Housing Program Manager Position for the Roseville Housing and Redevelopment Authority (RHRA) In the absence of Community Development Director and HRA Executive Director Patrick Trudgeon, City Manager Malinen summarized this request for a change in job duties and creation of a new job classification as detailed in the RCA dated April 11, 2011. Mr. Malinen advised that this reflected the original assumptions and long-term evolution of this position as anticipated when the position was orig- inally created and discussions among the City Manager, HRA Executive Director and HRA Chair. Councilmember Johnson expressed his support of the request, with the exception of making the change retroactive, and rationale and justification for that part of the request. Councilmember Pust, speaking as a member of the HRA, noted her civil service experience in creating formal job descriptions and comparing job duties to ensure they were accurately depicted. Councilmember Pust noted that, since its incep- tion, the position had remained in flux until actual day-to-day operations could re- flect the duties and where it should be classified; and now that experience had provided for a realistic and official classification, as recommended; and that with that classification in place, it affected a change in salary, which should reflect when the person started those duties and thus be retroactive. City Manager Malinen noted the delay in bringing this forward, due to lack of op- portunities for HRA meetings and their subsequent recommendation, with several meetings being cancelled over the last few months due to the lack of a quorum. Mr. Malinen advised that, if the City Council so desired, they could delay action until Mr. Trudgeon was present to provide a more detailed background for this re- quest. Councilmember McGehee opined that the main motivation appeared to be the ad- ditional duties affiliated with the Living Smarter Fair, and sought additional in- formation on those actual duties.
