Fiscal Note
The proposed resolution creates new classifications of Public Information Officer 1 & 2 in CG18, R8 and 10, respectively, deletes various existing agency specific classifications of public information officers, and reallocates the incumbents to the new positions. The recreation of the Parks Community Relations Coordinator as a Public Information Officer 2 is the only change that will have a fiscal effect. The 2019 impact on the Parks Division budget is less than $1,000. The 2020 impact is approximately $8,600. The Division will absorb the additional costs associated with the changes.
