MEETING DATE:  1/9/2017

SUBJECT:  Authorization for Addition of a Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) Community Redevelopment Agency Coordinator

PREPARED BY:  Robert A. Bonetti, Finance and Administrative Services Director

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

Authorize the addition of  the CRA Coordinator (1.0 FTE) position.

 

Summary

On June 29, 2016, the Proposed FY 17 Budget for the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) was presented to the Downtown Redevelopment Trust Board (DRTB).  Elements of the budget presented, at that time, were intended to satisfy anticipated market study recommendations to be presented by Redevelopment Management Associates (RMA).  One market study recommendation was to contract out or hire a CRA Coordinator.  City staff included $60,000 within CRA operating expenses for  the CRA Coordinator.  The DRTB approved the Proposed FY 17 Budget.

 

Subsequent to the Budget Public Hearings on September 26, 2016, the City Commission approved the FY 2017 Compensation Plan.  This plan included the new classification of CRA Coordinator and established the pay range for the position.  The position was not included in the Full-Time Equivalent positions as part of the City's FY 2016-2017 Final Budget.

 

Therefore, City staff requests that the City Commission authorize the CRA Coordinator position.  This action would bring to 124.50 the number of authorized FTE positions.
