Crump, City Manager August 2, 2016 Agenda Items REGULAR AGENDA: 6. Consideration of new positon/clasiftcation of Director of Safety & Risk Management for the City of Rockingham. (See Pages 9-13) In closed session at last month's Council meeting, I discussed pending staff retirements in administration. In reviewing the upcoming staff changes due to pending retirements, I have evaluated how to best address future operational needs of the City and how best to staff those needs. Ihave determined that the creation of the position of Director of Safety & Risk Management which will be filled prior to pending retirement and staff realignment will best serve the City's operational needs. The new position, if approved by Council, will be funded in pending staf/administration realignment and thus be basically revenue neutral. Additionally, stalff/administration changes in pending realignment should not require additional funding either. Enclosed please find proposed job description and salary classification of Director or Safety & Risk Management. It_is anticipated that the proposed realignment in administration staff, if approved, will be fully effective by March 1, 2017. 514 Rockingham Road, Rockingham, NC 28379 Phone 3- 5 9088 Fax (910)997.6617- www. gorockingham.com Rockingham, NC City Council Agenda SUPPORT DOCUMENTS 4- 6 % - 4 3 3 D d0 8 8 2 / le 5- UNCOLLECTED TAXES YEAR 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006 AMOUNT 2,763,465.95 50,581.35 25,753.91 22,062.13 16,440.39 15,190.41 11,788.71 10,136.35 8,776.85 5,077.02 4,133.33 July 2016 2,763,465.95 169,940.45 2,933,406.40 Total Current Year Total Past Years Total All Years -6- 0 - 5 5888 B3ESEEEEEEE N U a o 0 i Ee 25 9 8 B 6 2 N: N N a 6 CLASSCODE: 100-03 CLASS TITLE: Director of Safety & Risk Management GENERAL STATEMENT OF DUTIES Performs skilled and responsible professional and administrative work in developing and implementing the safety program for the City.
