Council Direction Statement
In Chapter 10 of Carrboro Connects, one of Human Resources goals is to “Research and review pay and position classification policies and programs that support Council’s goals for competitive, living wages and that also provide employees with an affordable housing wage.” This request is in accordance with Town Code Chapter 4: Personnel Policy Article II - Position Classification Plan.
POSITION CLASSIFICATION PLAN
end
Information
INFORMATION: The resolution proposes two changes to the position classification and pay plan. The first is to eliminate the position title Accounting & Grants Supervisor and reassign the position and create the job title of Comptroller. This change will allow for better oversight and efficiency in the Finance Department and responds to the Auditor’s report. The second request is to create the position of Fire Marshal and reassign one Battalion Chief position to Fire Marshal. Previously, fire marshal responsibilities have been attached to the Town’s Deputy Fire Chief job description. This change will allow for a single person to be dedicated to those responsibilities and allow the Deputy Fire Chief to focus more time on the Fire-Rescue Department operations.
end
Fiscal and Staff Impact
FISCAL IMPACT: There is minimal fiscal and staff impact due to these changes. These changes will not increase the number of full-time positions.
end
Recommendation
RECOMMENDATION: The Town Manager recommends that the Town Council adopt the resolution.
