'CITY MANAGER CONTINUED TO FILE NUMBER RECOMMENDED ACTION Adopt a resolution that amends the City's Basic Management Classification and Compensation Plan (Resolution No. 91-066) and amends the Fiscal Year 2006-07 Annual Budget to reallocate one position. DISCUSSION The Clerk of the Council Office has conducted an analysis of the duties and responsibilities of their Senior Management Analyst position following the departure of the incumbent. This position's main responsibilities have been developing the Office's budget, supervising staff, and completing special proj ects and assignments as appropriate. However, the organizational review has concluded that these duties would be performed more efficiently and effectively by a middle management classification performing professional and technical duties specific to a Clerk's Office. Such a classification would also serve as a bridge class to the Clerk of the Council position when the need to search for a successor arises. Therefore, the Clerk of the Council is proposing the creation of a classification titled Chief Assistant Clerk of the Council (MM) and the reallocation of the Senior Management Analyst position to this new classification. The Chief Assistant Clerk of the Council will perform highly responsible administrative and managerial work in directing and coordinating the activities of the Clerk of the Council Office and will act as the Clerk of the Council in the incumbent's absence. 55A-1
