BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION
During the Fiscal Year 2016/2017 budget process, the City Council approved a new Advanced Planning division within the Community Development Department. Advanced Planning is one of six other divisions within the Community Development Department. The other divisions include Building & Safety, Planning, Enforcement Services, Economic Development, Housing and Administration. The new Advance Planning division will be responsible for combining land use and mobility planning as part of the long-range planning solutions to address livability and mobility concerns in the City.
As a result of the creation of the new division, a new position, Advance Planning Manager, was approved by City Council. The Advance Planning Manager is a mid-management classification that will be responsible for directing the day to day operations of the Advance Planning Division. Responsibilities will also include planning and directing activities related to the update and maintenance of the City's General Plan.
In anticipation of conducting a recruitment for Advance Planning Manager, Human Resources staff met with the Community Development management to develop the classification specification.
