City of Culver City, California City Council Agenda Item Report RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the City Council approve a budget amendment adding $4,115 to Account 10152500.411100 – ‘Regular Salaries’ for Fiscal Year 2007-08, to fund an increase of the Code Enforcement Secretary position to a full-time position from that of a fully-benefited reduced-hours position. Staff recommends this change be adopted permanently. A Budget Amendment requires a 4/5ths vote. BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: The position of Code Enforcement Secretary was originally a fully-benefited, full-time position. Some years back, the incumbent employee requested the hours be reduced to accommodate their personal schedule. As a result, the budget funding for this position was reduced from 100% to 84% though the authorized position remained as a full time position. The current adopted budget includes the consolidation of Enforcement Services Division which will require a higher level of public interaction as well as public counter service for this division; the work capacity for this position will be significantly increased, and therefore, it is recommended to restore this position to be a full time position. FISCAL ANALYSIS: The cost to increase the Code Enforcement Secretary to a full-time position for the remainder of Fiscal Year 2007-2008 is estimated to be approximately $4,115 including salary and related benefits.
