Amending the 2012 Operating Budgets for Engineering, Sewer Utility, Stormwater Utility and Landfill for the reassignment of 2 positions and the creation of 1 position, and Appropriating $6,212 from the Contingent Reserve.  
Body
 
PREAMBLE
 
The 2011 and 2012 Operating Budgets of the Engineering Division, in an attempt to gain efficiencies, split the duties of an Engineering Program Specialist 1 and a Management Information Specialist 2 across multiple agencies.  
 
The Program Specialist 1 was assigned work in the Facilities Design Section and charged approximately 48% of time to those Capital Projects.  It is now apparent that the majority of time for this position shall be used for facilities design due to project workload.  
 
The Management Information Specialist 2 was assigned to work 50% time for the Sewer Utility, Stormwater Utility and Landfill Section within Engineering Operations.  It is now apparent that the ongoing software needs will require 100% of the time for this position.  
 
These time reassignments leave a staffing shortage within the Engineering GIS/Mapping Section.  Engineering desires to add a position of Management Information Specialist 2 to better support this key area that supports many City Agencies in addition to the Engineering Division.  
 
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, to hereby amend the 2012 Operating Budgets for Engineering, Sewer Utility, Stormwater Utility and Landfill for the reassignment of two positions and the creation of one FTE Management Information Specialist 2 position; and
 
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the budgetary target for the Engineering Division's 2013 Operating Budget be increased to reflect a full year of the added position; and
 
BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED, that the additional funding of $6,212 be appropriated from the Contingent Reserve to fund the net impact of this reorganization.
