Fiscal Note
The proposed ordinance change separates the City Traffic Engineer & Parking Manager position into a City Traffic Engineer position and a Parking Division Manager position. The City Traffic Engineer position will remain in the same compensation group (CG) and range (R) as the current combined position. The Parking Division Manager classification is created in a companion resolution (Legistar file ID 52988). That resolution creates a new classification of Parking Division Manager in CG18, R17, deletes the existing classification of Assistant Parking Utility Manager in the same CG and Range, retitles position #1275 as a Parking Division Manager in the Parking Utility operating budget, and reallocates the incumbent to the new position. The new classification is in the same compensation group and range as the existing classification. There is no fiscal impact.
Title
SUBSTITUTE Amending Sections 3.14(3)(a)2., 3.14(3)(b)2.c., 3.14(3)(c)2., 3.54(9)(b), 33.55(5), 33.56(4), and 33.56(5)(c)8. of the Madison General Ordinances to separate the positions of City Traffic Engineer and City Parking Manager, renaming the City Parking Manager to Parking Division Manager and to make necessary changes in the Department of Transportation Ordinance to reflect that change.
Body
DRAFTER'S ANALYSIS: Currently, the city’s ordinances combine the jobs of the City Traffic Engineer and City Parking Manager into one position called the City Traffic Engineer & Parking Manager. The former City Traffic Engineer & Parking Manager recently retired. The City prefers to split this position into two separate positions and rename the City Parking Manager to Parking Division Manager. This ordinance accomplishes that change by amending Sec. 33.54(9)(b) to reflect this change and then amending each Section 3.14 (Department of Transportation), Sec. 33.55 (Transportation Policy and Planning Board) and Sec. 33.56 (Transportation Commission) to reflect that change.
