Fiscal Note
The proposed resolution reclassifies positions #2755 and #2891 from CG42-RG08 to CG42-RG10. The combined annualized impact of the position reclassifications inclusive of salaries and benefits is $4,860, or $2,430 per position. The adopted Metro Transit operating budget will absorb the incremental cost increase of these two position reclassifications.
