BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: March 18, 2014
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Kay Godwin
SUBJECT: Approval for New Part-Time Positions in the Tourist Development
Department
DEPARTMENT: Human Resources
BCC DISTRICT: ALL
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Request approval to reclassify one full-time Tourist Information
Analyst position (N68: $14.13 - $23.46) to two part-time Research Associate positions (N65:
$11.54 - $19.15). Attached is a job description for the requested positions.
BACKGROUND: The full-time Tourist Information Analyst position was vacated on February
28, 2014 due to the incumbent's retirement. The department reviewed its internal needs and have
requested to reclassify the vacant full-time position to two part-time Research Associate
positions. This reclassification would enable the department to more efficiently manage the
office and visitors center duties and would provide for additional staffing in the visitors center to
allow for more extensive customer service for drive-in visitors. Further, this request will reduce
the department's budget approximately $12,700.00 annually.
The Human Resources Policy states “The establishment of additional positions not approved
through the budget process shall be coordinated through the Human Resources Department and
will be accomplished at the discretion of the County Administrator upon approval of the Board.”
OPTIONS: Approve/Deny
