Plant Opertions Department Issue: Termination of Jerry Jackson, probationary Maintenance Technician I, from employment with the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District. Background: Jerry Jackson was employed as a Maintenance Technician I on December 3, 1979 by the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District. Chapter 4 Sec. 4-415 of the Distric code provides for a probationary period of not less than six months nor more than 12 months. During Mr. Jackson's first six months of employment, his absenteeism from work was not acceptable, and his probation was extended. Mr. Jackson was informed by his supervisor that his probation was being extended due to excessive absenteeism and that his attendance would have to improve. A review of Mr. Jackson's attendance record since June, 1980, indicates that his attendance has not improved to a satisfactory level. Recommendation: Board authorization of dismissal of Jerry Jackson on November 28, 1980. REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION ((sD Central Contra Costa Sanitary District BOARD OF DIRECTORS NO.

DOLAN General Manager-Chief Engineer DATE DEVELOPMENT OF POLICY STATEMENT FOR 5% SAlAR Y INCREASE IN RECOGNITION OF A TT AIN- MENT OF PROFESSIONAL ENGINEER CERTIFICATION November 13, 1980 TYPE OF ACTION SUBJECT PERSONNEL SUBMITTED BY Gail B. Koff, Personnel Officer INITIATING DEPT./DIV. Administrative ISSl.JE: In September 1975 and August 1977, The Board requested District staff to develop a policy statement which would grant a 5% salary incentive increase to District employees who attained engineering registration and were not currently in a job classification requiring registration. The Board's contention was that such recognition would encourage employees to remain with the District until such time that a position requiring registration would become available. In practice, two employees, Jack Case and Reynaldo Limjoco, received this 5% salary increase when they achieved their Professional Engineering Registration and were not in a position requiring such certification. Two other employees, Cynthia Deleon and Dale Ohda, are currently in positions not requiring registration, have achieved their Professional Engineering Certification, and have not benefited by this 5% salary increase. District staff needs Board input concerning the development and implementation of this policy as the following questions and problems arise. Examples of this are: 1. Is this policy to be limited only to those engineering staff who attain registration or is the policy intended to include all staff who achieve higher certification than the position occupied demands? A. Plant Operators and maintenance personnel and CSO crew members who achieve higher certification than in the position they currently occupy B. Personnel who meet the qualifications or achieve required skills of a higher level position. 2. Will the employee be expected to accept work responsibilities of the higher classification although his current class description does not include it? While concerned with the financial impact of the policy, the District desires a policy which would be fairly and evenly administered throughout the District. We wish the Board to advise staff of the intent and scope of th requested policy statement. RECOMMENDATION: Provide guidance to staff concerning scope of policy statement regarding 5% salary increase for attaining registration when employee is occupying position which does not require such registration.

DOLAN General Manager-Chief Engineer DATE September 26, 1980 SUBJECT TYPE OF ACTION PLANT MAINTENANCE aVISION MANAGER POSITION Personnel SUBMITTED BY D. G. Ni les INITIATING DEPT./DIV. Plant Operations Department The examination for the position of Plant Maintenance Division Manager was completed on September 23, 1980. There were 20 applicants with nine qualifying to take the examination for the position. Of the 11 qual ifying, six accepted invitations to take the examination. The examination was con- ducted by an oral board which consisted of two interviewers from the outside and one from the District. Each candidate was allowed one hour for the com- pletion of two written problems and preparation of his presentation to the oral board. Of the six candidates interviewed, three met both the qual ifica- tions and passed the written/oral examinations. Those names have been sub- mitted to the Board of Directors for the establishment of an eligibil ity 1 ist for the Plant Maintenance Division Manager position. Mr. Charles Batts placed No.1 in the examination by indicating to the examining board a thorough understanding of the management and technical requirements of maintaining a complex treatment facility. In reviewing Mr. Batts' application for employment, he has presented excellent educational, technical, and experience qualifications for this position. Mr. Batts is presently employed by Allied Chemical Corporation as an assistant to the plant manager at an annual salary of $35,000. It is recommended that after establishment of the Plant Maintenance Division Manager eligibility list by the Board of Directors I be authorized to negotiate with Mr. Batts for employment with the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District at a salary within range R86. This would match his present salary and also indicate a potential growth incentive. REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION Central Contra itary District BOARD OF DIRECTORS NO.

DOLAN General Manager-Chief Engineer DATE October 2, 1980 SUBJECT TYPE OF ACTION REPORT ON JERRY JACKSON, MAINTENANCE TECHNICIAN I, GRIEVANCE AND CLAIM HEARING PERSONNEL SUBMITTED BY D. G. NILES INITIATING DEPT./DIV. PLANT OPERATIONS DEPARTMENT Issue: On April 16, 1980 Jerry Jackson, Maintenance Technician I filed a formal grievance with the Sanitary District. Background: Mr. Jackson was employed by the Sanitary District on December 3, 1979 as a Maintenance Technician I. On March 15, 1980 Mr. Jackson took the written and oral examination for the Maintenance Technician I I I, Instrumentation position. On April 16, 1980 Jerry Jackson filed a formal grievance against the Sanitary District listing a number of complaints and requested the following relief: 1. An independent review of the written portion of his exam for Maintenance Technician I I I; 2. A written retraction/apology from his former supervisor regarding an alleged threat made by appellant, as well as proof that his per- sonnel file was cleared of any trace of that alleged threat; 3. Return of improperly docked pay; and 4. That he be returned to the Instrumentation Division. Appellant has also filed a claim against respondent seeking damages in the amount of $44,000 for emotional distress, injury to his personal reputation and to his business reputation, unreasonable postponement of or outright loss of promotional opportunities, and aggravation of diabetes as a result of the stress occasioned by these circumstances. Jerry Jackson's grievance was conducted in conformance with District procedures with hearings held beginning with Mr. Jackson's immediate supervisor and on up through the District General Manager-Chief Engineer. Being unable to resolve the grievance within the District, a formal hearing before Administrative Law Judge Michael C. Cohn, was held on September 18, 1980. The Sanitary District was represented by Thomas Dawson of the John J. Carniato law offices, and the attached Determination of Issues was made by Michael C. Cohn, Adminis- trative Law Judge.

ENGINEERING/SPECIAL PROJECTS BACKGROUND: The original personnel budget for 1980-81 included one additional Associate Engineer position in the Special Projects Engineering Division; however, that position was dropped because of the uncertain future of the Clean Water Grant Program and the State Solid Waste Manage- ment Board (SSWMB) Grant Program. At this time, it appears that CCCSD will receive over $40 million in clean water grant funds over the next five years for completion of the Stage 5 Project (including correction of Stage SA Deficiencies, Stage 5B Hydraulic Capacity Expansion and Stage 5B Solids Handling Capacity expansion). This work will be starting October 1, 1980. Additionally, the SSWMB has given a $431,000 grant to CCCSD for Predesign Engineering on the Garbage to Energy Project. This work will be starting about November 15, 1980. The additional Associate Engineer position is needed in Special Projects to assist in coordinating these tasks. This work will require skills in the area of Environmental (Sanitary) Engineering. The proposed class description emphasizing the sanitary engineering background is attached. RECOMMENDATION: Adopt a Class Description for the position of Associate Engineer (Environmental) and authorize a position for Associate Engineer (Environmental), Range 77, in the Special Projects Engineering Division.

Administration/Personnel ISSUE: In accordance with the Memorandum of Understanding signed July 1980, the Board of Directors and the Employees Association agreed to meet and confer on a Policy Statement concerning flextime. Meet and confer sessions have taken place concerning this matter, and submitted for your review are two possible policy statements to be considered. Exhibit A is a revised draft of the policy statement which was submitted at the Board Meeting of September 4. Gail Koff summarized the differences which were occurring in respect to the language of the policy during the meet and confer sessions. In response to the Wage and Benefit Committee demands for the terms flextime or flexible working hours to be incorporated within the scope of the policy statement, the Board's position was that the Wage and Benefit Committee must provide to them an acceptable definition of those terms. In response to this request, the Wage and Benefit Committee chose to develop an entirely new policy statement (Exhibit B) rather than to incorporate the definition within the existing policy statement (Exhibit A.)

Dolan, Gen. Mgr.-Chief Engr. INITIATING DEPT./DIV. Administrative ISSUE: The Board should consider the salary and benefits for the General Manager/Chief Engineer. BACKGROUND AND RECOMMENDATION: The General Manager-Chief Engineer is currently at Range 105, Step D, $4,850.00 per month. It is proposed that, based on job performance and continued high level demand for the experience and skills required by the District for this position, the position be reevaluated to Range 1p, Step A, and that the salaries of this range be increased by 11.5%, effective July 1980. The propqSed change in range and step would have no financial impact until October 1981. From tha't point on, it would result in a 5% per year increase over a three year period. It would be understood that the Board would continue to grant annual merit/inflationary salary increases as appropriate during the term of the requested step increases. Q". ..;'........... '.' ~,.;.'

DOLAN General Manager-Chief Engineer DATE August 18, 1980 SUBJECT EST ABLISH MANAGEMENT COMPENSATION LEVELS FOR 1980-81 TYPE OF ACTION Management Com- pensation SUBMITTED BY Roger J. Dolan, Gen. Mgr.-Chief Engr. INITIATING DEPT./DIV. Administrative ISSUE: The Board should establish the level of compensation for the District's manage- ment. SALARIES: The Board has indicated that they would prefer to eliminate the traditional range and step salary schedule for the management group for the year beginning July 1, 1980. It was the stated intention of the Board to reestablish salary ranges for the various management positions by means of a salary survey to be conducted over this next 12- month period. ,. At the boaDCl meeting of August 7, 1980, the Board requested the General Manager-Chief Engineer tb provide a recommendation for specific salary increases for the individual managers, subject to guidelines laid down by the Board. The proposed salaries are shown on Table I. These salaries would be effective for the entire year beginning July 1, 1980. ( j To place the recommendation to the Board in the proper perspective, I would like to emphasize the excellence with which this group of people has performed over this past year. There is a significant demand for the skills and abilities possessed by these individuals. The District has successfully worked at controlling cost of service while meeting very high levels of plant and collection system performance. The District has continued to efficiently provide for growth within the service area as well as manage the enormously complex problem of correcting the deficiencies of the plant. This progress has been made under conditions made more difficult because of the presence of major disputes with a number of parties over the District's water reclamation project. BENEFITS: It is recommended that the benefits granted to the employees for FY 1980/81 be extended to the managers. In addition, it is recommended that the payment of 50% of the employees regular retirement contribution be extended to include all employees with thirty or more years in the retirement plan. Since no actual payments to the retirement fund are required for those individuals, it is proposed that this amount be remitted directly to the employee as a cash benefit. l REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION INITIATING DEPT./DIV. f_____ ____'-_:_,~:.~',.:..:.._.__ . / (...~.\ '.'_,' -f (:...'.'..' . .'- ~".l .,-1" c Footnotes: Revise Footnote 5 on original table 1. Attachment A shows the bar charts for these positions 2. Dr. Weddle suffered a cut in pay when he joined the District one year ago. He was hired at the top of the pay range then available for the position he assumed. Because of this, he has not been afforded a step increase in the manner customary with new employees. Together with his very competent staff, he has done an exemplary job in putting together the completion of 5A-I, as well as the 5B-I and Garbage/Energy projects. With technical input from Dave Niles and Bob Baker, he has overseen, through John Larson and his Special Projects Engineering Division, several treatment plant systems including chlorination, dechlorination, and odor control. 3. The position of Manager of Plant Operations Division is in an unusually strong competitive position presently, and can be expected to continue to be for some time into the future. Many agencies are finding that the key, and most difficult position to fill successfully is the top position in operations. Many new plants have gone on line recently increasing the competition for the limited number of capable people available. The bar charts, attac~ment B, show a comparison between Mr. Baker's salary for th)~ position and salaries offered by other agencies, all of whom are running plants of significantly lower complexity than the District's. 4. Mrs. Koff is currently at Step A, range 79. The District would normally provide a 5% increase effective May 11, 1981. The recommended salary reflects the effect of an 11!% increase compounded with the expected 5% increase. 5. These managers have been employed by the District for over 20 years and included in their total base salary is the District's 2.5% longevity credit. Since these managers have also been members of the retirement program for more than 30 years, their salary already reflects an additional 2.5 percent increase granted by the Board in 1978. The proposed increase shows the net effect of paying 50% of the regular retirement contribution in lieu of the 2 t% currently paid. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Board approve the salaries listed in Table I under Proposed Salaries. These salaries are to be effective July 1, 1980. Also, it is recommended that the Board approve the General Manager's recommendation concern- ing benefits. ('- If\ +.J 4- C 0 Q) E~ .s= U +.J CO Q) +.J Q) +.J .s= <cVl ( c o ~ ~ > "':' :=.

Koff, Personnel Officer INITIATING DEPT./DIV. Personnel BAO<GROUND: CCCSD currently has state and federal grants amounting to over $62 million. In the near future (2-3 years), CCCSD will have an additional $40 million for completing the Stage 5A project and for construction of new facilities (Stage 5B). The grant procedures are very complicated and the volume of paper required to obtain, administer, and document the grants is increasing. Delays in processing the required paperwork or errors in the documentation could have a significant impact on CCCSD's level of grant reimbursement. A position with primary responsibility for grants management appears to be justified at this time. The appropriate level of responsibility would be that of Associate Engineer; however, none of the District's Associate Engineer level class descriptions covers the area of contracts management.

G. Ni 1es INITIATING DEPT.!DIV. Plant Operations Department Issue: A new class description t~ reflect increased duties performed in the Plant Operations Department is necessary. Background: An evaluation has been made of the duties and class description of the Maintenance Supervisor, Machinist. The results of the evaluation have shown that the Maintenance Supervisor, Machinist class description does not adequately describe the duties which the Maintenance Supervisor, Machinist performs. A new class description has been prepared entitled Technical Maintenance Super- visor which reflects the increased duties performed. The following changes have been made in the class description: 1.

DOLAN General lIIIanager-Chief Engineer DATE July 15, 1980 SUBJECT MANAGEMENT COMPENSATION PACKAGE FOR 1980-1981 TYPE OF ACT ION EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION SUBMITTED BY Clark Weddle Engineering BACKGROUND: The staff of this District has huge challenges with which to cope. Our record has been good if you consider that, in the recent past, costs of treating sewage have decreased, NPDES requirements have been met, claims for damages on the collection system have been reduced (less than $3,000 last year), a new Chapter 4 has been issued, commitments have been made for grants in excess of $10 million, and the repair to the outfall was completed. Such achievements are a result of many people doing a job under competent management. It is necessary to keep the salaries of the members of the management group competitive to maintain and attract a high level of managerial skills. Traditionally, compensation for management is considered after employees wages and benefits are established. Since salary negotiations have taken longer than usual this year, the management group finds itself with very little time for negotiations. Therefore, the management group, consisting of Clark Weddle, Dave Niles, Bob Hinkson, Jay McCoy, Ken Barker, Bob Baker, Clyde Hopkins, Gall Koff and Walter Funasaki, has compiled what it considers a reasonable request based on the following analysis. The management group is submitting bar charts showing the relationship of current management salaries to the salaries of comparable positions in other organizations, indicating that increases bringing our salaries into more favorable positions are appropriate. We believe that private industry should be included in salary comparisons for future years. It is becoming a significant source for the filling of management positions in the District. Taking all of the pertinent facts into account, it is requested that the individuals named above be granted the following increases. A financial analysis is attached for your review. RECOMMENDATION: The members of the management group shall receive; I. An eleven and one-ha1 f percent (1 H%) across the board wcige increase. II. Items B, Increa'sed Retirement Contributions; D, Tuition Reimbursement; and E, mileage allowance of Part IV of the proposal to the employees dated July JO,1980.

OB- 1 6/5/80 POSITION PAPER VIA: ROGER J. DOLAN General Manager-Chief Engineer DATE May 29, 1980 SUBJECT REVIEW OF CLASS DESCRIPTIONS AS PROPOSED IN THE PERSONNEL BUDGET TYPE OF ACTION PERSONNEL SUBMITTED BY Jay McCoy INITIATING DEPT./DIV. Engineering/Collection Sys. Background; At the Board meeting of May 15, 1980, a request was made by the Employees' Association to be given time to review the new class descriptions which are a part of the 1980-81 Personnel Budget. The request was granted and the Association's review was submitted on May 28, 1980 and is attached. Three specific points are cited in the Association's review. The first is the need for a separate Personnel Assistant class. It is manage- ment's position that the need for the separate class exists and said class was recommended to you on that basis. The second is the salary range for the Vehicle and Equipment Services Attendant position. It is management's position that the salary range (R45) is appropriate. The third is in the area of the purchasing section. If changes are made to the proposed class descriptions before they are finally adopted by the Board, the Employees Association will be given an opportunity to review the changes. One general topic was raised concerning the need for establishing a guide or rules for reclassifications and lateral transfers. Manage- ment intends to meet and confer" with the Association on this subject over the next six months. It is intended that a schedule will be set and conclusions reached will be presented to the Board in later 1980. All of the above were reviewed with the Association (Dave Johnson) and they may wish to present objections to the proposed action directly to the Board. They will be given an opportunity at the June 5 Board meeting. RECOMMENDATION: Approve the class descriptions and related actions as contained in the Personnel Budget and direct staff to meet and confer with the Employees Association for the purpose of establishing guidelines for reclassifications, lateral transfers and related topics.

PERSONNEL ASSISTANT The District's investment in time for the learning of particular District needs is a District-wide, operational necessity and should not reauire a specialized position description unless specific, precompleted course or background is an absolute prequalification. Inasmuch as the activities of the proposed Personnel Assistant position are more in the line of on-the-job, learned activities during the probational period of employment and peculiar only to the in-house assis,:nment rather than the performance of preestablished need, this specialized position creation does not appear justified. @9 \\ VEHICLE AND EeJUIPnENT SEHVICES ATTElJDANT There is an apparent discrepancy of starting salary based solely on experience and supervision requirements for this position compared to others. This position occupant/holder must have one year of auto service and lube experience and be under close supervision while the existing Plant Attendant posi tion requires no e::perience whatsoever in any trade or occupation and be under direct supervision. Otherwise, the levels of responsibilities and duties in these preventative maintenance fields are substantially comparable. It seems that either the salary ranSe should be increased, or, the experience requirement dropped completely, or perhaps both. ~ PERSONNEL ASSISTANT The District's investment in time for the learning of particular District needs is a District-wide, operational necessity and should not renuire a specialized position description unless specific, precompleted course or background is an absolute prequalification. Inasmuch as the activities of the proposed Personnel Assistant position are more in the line of on-the-job, learned activities during the probational period of employment and peculiar only to the in-house assignment rather than the performance of preestablished need, this specialized position creation does not appear justified. @9 nECLJ\.SSIFICATION~; While the District adjusts its personnel requirements to the needs of the District's operations, many of our employees are adapting to these needs as they have in the past. IJei'l needs create specialized and quasi specialized effort on the part of individuals. New roles are bein.o: created and along, vrith them a need to fill those roles. Apparently, these new roles are being filled through a new oractice oresently known as RECLASSIFICATION. It is the assignment of an individual to perform needed tasks and the realization that SUCll tctsl:s require full time or major time effort that the role is cree.ted. Vlhether identifiable as a separate and distinct classified oosi tion i'li th another public agency or private business seems to be the only prerequisite for creating a new, separately described job. Whether the luck of the draw or a selection based on other than merit, an assignment to a particular division or department may now lead to HECLASSIFICATION and furthermore, lateral transfer based upon past and future need of continued performance. And vrhile I may have no personal aversion to this practice, it is neil or relatively so and needs to be thoroughly defined and provided for either in the District Code or specific poliCY and procedure before this practice is further continued. Without a well-defined guideline, this practice may evolve into an unequal opDortuni ty practice I'd th highly adverse mora14 consequences. For the above observations, it is respectfully reouested that the matter of job reclassification and lateral transfer be subject to meet and confer sessions with the Employees' Association for the purpose of determining that equal opportunity is not circumvented ano o:f establishin.0 a .o:uide for its application to existinrr classified positions. ~ CCCSD Central Contra Costa Sanitary District BOARD OF DIRECTORS POSITION PAPER VIA: ROGER J.

In matter of fact, on April 16, 1980, two letters were sent to the Board of Directors, one via General Manager - Chief Engineer Roger Dolan, and the other via Clyde Hopkins, Board Secretary. Both of the above referenced letter requested, per Section 3505 of the Government Code, to meet and confer in good faith "promptly". As of this date, we have not received any official written reply from the Board of Directors. On April 23, 1980, the Committee contacted the Secretary of the Board, Clyde Hopkins, by telephone, again requesting a meet and confer session with the Board of Directors and or a committee comprised of Board members Jack Campbell and Alan Stanley, who were to hold a meeting on April 24, 1980 at 7:30 p.m. at the Board of Directors meeting room located at 1250 Springbrook Road, Walnut Creek, Ca. We were advised by Board Secretary Hopkins that we, the committee,would be advised by return telecom of Board or Board committee's reply. Neither the Board nor it's Secretary replied on April 24, 1980. The Wage and Benefit Committee had a scheduled 6:15 p.m. meeting at the Employee's Lunch Room located across the hall from the Board of Directors Meeting Room. At 7:30 p.m., or thereabouts, management staff members, the General Manager - Chief Engineer Roger Dolan, and Board Attorney John J. Carn- iatto, and both Board member Alan Stanley and Jack Campbell went into meeting. , t: Honorable Board of Directors -2- April 25~ 1980 At approximately 10:12 p.m.~ a very expeditious exit was made by Board member Jack Campbell led by Board Attorney John J. Carniato~ to the northwestern parking lot area. The Employees' Association Wage and Benefit Committee pursued Member Campbell and Attorney Carniato for the purpose of addressing Board Member Campbell. After repeated efforts to "hail" ~1ember Campbell~ he finally answered~ at which time the Committee advised Mr. Campbell of its representing approx- imately 180 members of the Employees' Association, and inquired as to when the Committee could meet and confer with the Board of Directors to receive their wage and benefit offer~ and enter into negotiations of same. Member Campbell advised that some action by the Board would be forthcoming. It must be assumed by the Board of Directors continued posture on non- negotiation and continued acts of ignoring the Employees' Association's requests to establish "meet and confer" sessions~ that the Board is in con- tinued violation of Government Code Sections 3500-3509 et seq and more ex- pressly Section 3505. We as a Committee would suggest to the Board and it's attorney, to review the following pertinent case: Los Angeles County Civil Service Comm. v Superior Court (1978) 23 C 3d 55,151, Cal Rptr 547, 588 P2d 249; and be guided accordingly. ~"';~ By the Board of Directors continued inaction as to the numerous requests by the Employees' Association Wage and Benefits Committee's requests granted under and mandated by the law for "meet and confer" sessions~ the Employees' Association will have no other alternatives or o~tions open to them but to request the aid and assistance of the California State Attorney General's office and the Department of Industrial Relations, to conduct an investigation and take the appropriate actions to alleviate this situation. It would seem to the Employees' Association Wage and Benefits Committee that it would be in the best interests of the District and its dedicated employees to establish "good faith meet and confer" sessions and thereby establish uniform and orderly methods of communication and establish a rapport between Employees and the Public Agency, in order to exchange freely, information, opinions~ and proposals tIT conform to the wisdom which must have existed with the authors of the Meyers - Bilias - Brown Act, which is referred to as Sections 3500 - 3509 et seq of the California State Government Code. Awaiting your timely and earnest reply towards achieving a mutually beneficial outcome to this existing problem.

Administration/Accounting ISSUE: Phyllis Lagiss, Accounting Assistant, will terminate her employ- ment with the District on approximately July 1, 1980 due to relocation as a result of her impending marriage. BACKGROUND: The effort to hire a replacement for the Accounting Assistant's position will begin April 1980 and is intended to result in the selection of the successful appointee approximately two weeks before P. Lagiss' termination date. In order to allow an interval of at least two weeks for the training of the replacement by P. Lagiss, provision for a summer temporary category is requested. The appointee would work in this category until the Accounting Assistant's position was vacated, and would be hired on a permanent basis at that time. In the event a replacement is not hired by the termination date, the summer temporary will provide needed assistance within the department until a replacement is hired.

Administration/Personnel SUBMITTED BY ISSUE: The Board of Directors at its meeting of April 10, 1980 adopted with the exception of Sec. 4-503, an amended Chapter 4 of the District Code. BACKGROUND: On April 10, 1980, the Board agreed to a postponement of the voting for approval of the layoff policy, to be included in the District Code, until the District completed its study regarding similar policies in other public agencies. This study is now complete, and with the concurrence of the Employee's Association, the District has developed the attached policy statement for review and approval by the Board. This layoff policy was developed to be a fair and equitable policy, simple to implement and administer, and meets the needs of both the District and the Employee's As soc i at i on . Within this Section, we have addressed the issue of reappointment and are there- fore recommending the deletion of Sec. 4-505 to the Amended Chapter 4 of the District Code.

REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION Sec. 4-503. Layoff by displacement. In Same Class When a reduction in force becomes necessary, lay-off shall be accompl ished in inverse order of total District seniority within the affected class except as may be provided by applicable Federal or State regulations. For purposes of this rule, total District seniority shall be defined as in Section 4-504. An employee's tenure in a class is his/her length of service in that classification and service in any higher classification. Before any permanent employee in an affected class is laid off, all appointees working in affected classes in the same department under emergency, temporary, permanent-intermittent or probationary appointments shall be separated from District employment. Any employee subject to lay-off as a result of being in a promotional probationary status in a new department may be allowed to demote in 1 ieu of lay-off to the employee's former classification and department. Demotion to Lower Class An employee in a classification affected by a reduction in force may, in I ieu of lay-off, elect to demote to a lower classification, provided that such employee had held tenure in the lower classification. When both the employee demoting and the employee in the lower paying class have equal total District service, the employee in the lower paying class-ification would be laid off or demoted first. Reduct ion in force or demot ion in I ieu of lay-off in one department shall not affect employees in another department. Not i fieat ion of Layoff In cases involving permanent employees only, notice of layoff shall be given to the employee at least 30 calendar days prior to the effective date of layoff. Duration of Reemployment List Names of persons laid off shall be carried on a reemployment list for 24 months. If, after a layoff, the working force is increased, the District shall offer each appointment from the established reemployment list in reverse order of layoff, hiring the most recently lai.d off first. Persons appointed to permanent positions of the same classification and status as previously held, shall be dropped from the list. Persons reemployed in a lower classifi- cation or on a temporary or part-time basis shall be continued on the list for the higher permanent position. Any person rejecting an offer of reemployment to a previously held permanent position of the same classification and status shall be dropped from the list. Any person who does not respond within five working days to a certified letter offering such employment shall be dropped from the 1 ist, unless a sufficient reason is given.

Hinkson ISSUE: The Collection System Operations Department is updating the sewer maintenance record system. In order to get it in operation in an orderly fashion, we will require clerical help for a minimum of 6 months. Funds are available in the current budget. BACKGROUND: For the past several years the Collection System Operations Department has had to hire temporary clerical help to keep our kardex record system current. At the present time record entries are some 5 months in arrears. We received authorization in 1978 to study ways to improve the system. The fiscal year funds were allocated in the budget to install the revised system. The new system is based on the District1s 1"=1001 scale maps and is designed to reduce the number of cards (8,000 to 3,500) through a map coordinate index system; simplify entry and retrieval procedures; and to maximize filing accuracy. Because of the filing back log and start up adjustments, the use of temporary help is the practical way to put the system into effect.

G. Niles INITIATING DEPT./DIV. Plant Operations Department Issue: The Plant Operations Department has been unable to maintain proper staffing levels of qualified instrumentation maintenance personnel. Background: The 1979-1980 personnel budget provided for four Instrumentation Technician III positions. Due to the uncertaincy of staffing requirements for the Instrumentation Maintenance Section, these four positions were authorized as two permanent and two temporary positions. During the last six months the personnel requirements have been further evaluated in-house and by an outside engineering firm, Johnson Controls, Inc. These evaluations, along with proposed construction work and plant expansion requirements, indicate that a permanent staffing of four Instrument Technician Ill's is required. The recruitment of qualified instrumentation technicians has been very difficult, and we have not been able to hold qualified technicians in the temporary positions, which has been costly in money and training time. During our interviews with job applicants and personnel leaving, it is apparent that in today's job market for instrumentation technicians, they are not interested in temporary employment. The reclassification of the two temporary Instrumentation Technician III positions to permanent positions would provide the ability to perform a more effective recr~it- ment and maintenance of personnel for this position. This reclassification does not increase the 1979-1980 personnel staffing level or budget.

NB-9 1/17/80 POSITION PAPER VIA: ROGER J. DOLAN General Manager-Chief Engineer DATE Januar 15 1980 SUBJECT TYPE OF ACTION CLARIFICATION OF DISTRICT VACATION POLICY BASED UPON LONGEVITY OF EMPLOYMENT Clarification of Policy SUBMITTED BY Walter N. Funasaki INITIATING DEPT./DIV. artment ISSUE: A clarification of the District vacation policy is requested due to seeming inconsistencies between Board Resolutions establishing vacation credits based upon longevity of employment, and the implementation of these resolutions. BACKGROUND: Prior to September 6, 1962, all District employees received a uniform number of vacation days regardless of longevity. Since July 1955, the annual vacation days credited to each employee's vacation record on a pro-rata monthly basis was 15 working days. On September 6, 1962, the Board of Directors adopted Resolution 1339 which provided additional vacation days in recognition of length of employment. These additional vacation days are summarized on Attachment A and a copy of the resolution is provided as Attachment B. The Board of Directors adopted Resolution 2070 on July 23, 1970 which expanded the longevity periods and increased the additional number of vacation days. Resolution 2070 is summarized on Attachment A. A copy of Resolution 2070 is provided as Attachment C. An excerpt from the Minutes of the Board of Directors' July 23, 1970 meeting which describes the additional vacation days provided in Resolution 2070 follows: "Member Allan suggested that after 15 years of service, employees be given 20 days of vacation, after 20 years of service, 25 days vacation and that the maximum vacation time accumulation be 40 days after 15 years of service." Resolution 2070 established 20 years or more of service as qualifying for a maximum 10 additional vacation days. On May 16, 1974, the Board of Directors adopted Resolution 74- 74 which conformed the District's vacation allowance for longevity periods greater than 20 years to that of Contra Costa County. A copy of Resolution 74-74 is provided as Attachment D. The additional vacation days granted by Resolution 74-74 are summarized on Attachment A. While the vacation policy adopted by the Board of Directors for graduated vacation allowance days based on length of employment seems clear, particularly in consideration of the excerpt from the July 23, 1970 Board Minutes, the records used to maintain the employees' vacation balances have produced uncertainty regarding the basic intent of the vacation policy. REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION WNF Position Paper Clarification of District Vacation Policy Based Upon Longevity of Employment Page 2 of 2 January 15, 1980 The individual vacation ledger card for each District employee has been credited with 1- 1/4 days (15 days per year) each month. On the anniversary of the employee's 5th, 10th, 15th, 20th, 25th or 30th year, the vacation ledger was credited with the balance of the annual incremental vacation days as shown on Attachment A, less the cumulative incremental days which were credited on the preceding threshold anniversary dates. Additionally, the incremental days per Attachment A were credited to the employee's ledger in January of each year. An example of these entries appears on Attachment E. The method used in posting the vacation ledger with incremental vacation days in total at the beginning of each calendar year, rather than crediting the total annual vacation allowance (15 days plus incremental days) on a monthly pro-rata basis has led to the contention that the incremental vacation days are to be considered as bonus days which have been earned for prior service, rather than being a portion of the employee's total annual vacation allowance. Discussion with District employees involved in maintaining the vacation records indicates that the method used, wherein the additional days were credited in a lump sum in January of each year, was based on convenience, primarily to avoid posting unwieldy fractional days to the vacation records each month. RECOMMENDATION: It is requested that the District's vacation policy be restated in terms of annual working days based on longevity of employment and, in so doing, clarify the nature of the extra vacation days referred to in Resolution 1339 and 2070.

Dolan INITIATING DEPT.!DIV. Administration ISSUE: The class description for the position of Personnel Officer needs to be changed to more appropriately reflect it's current level of responsibility. BACKGROUND: In 1977 when the District created the position of Personnel Officer, it was assumed that the main responsibilities of this position would be to serve as support to the Departments in the areas of recruitment, employee orientation and employee discipline. In fact, this position has played an increasing role in the management of the District. Examples of these increased responsibilities include the various legal challenges on personnel demotions and terminations, EEOC/FEPC regulations and enforcements, the revisions to the District's personnel code, the Employee Handbook, acting as liaison with the Employee's Association in employee relation matters, and work on various personnel policies an~ procedures. In addition to the responsibilities mentioned above, the responsibility of supervis- ing the Administration secretarial support staff and the coordinating of the employee training and educational programs would also be assumed by this position. The attached class description details the increased responsibilities of the positio and the organizational chart reflects the retirement of Bill Dalton and the organizational changes in the Administration Department. RECOMMENDATION: Cancel class description for Personnel Officer, Range 71, $1868- $2260, and adopt new class description of Personnel Officer, Range 79, $2260-$2741, effective January 1, 1980.

KOFF TO RECLASSIFIED POSITION OF PERSONNEL OFFICER, RANGE 79-A, $2,260, EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 1980 TYPE OF ACTION Personnel SUBMITTED BY Ro er J. Dolan Administration BACKGROUND: The Personnel Officer position has been reclassified to include an increased level of managerial, as well as supervisory responsibility. Gail Koff has been working in this position since November, 1977 and has demonstrated the ability to provide the effective leadership and personnel administration skills required of this position. Gail Koff has worked in the field of Personnel Administration for eight years and possesses a Bachelor of Science degree in Education and Psychology. This, along with her demonstrated abilities, qualifies her for the additional responsibilities of the new position of Personnel Officer. Considering that she is currently doing a very satisfactory job handling these increased responsibilities, we feel that the recommended promotional advancement is in the best interests of the District. RECOMMENDATION: Appoint Gail B. Koff to the reclassified position of Personnel Officer, Range 79-A, $2,260, effective January 1, 1980. Successful completion of a six month probationary period will be required. REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION INITIATING DEPT./DIV. D Central Costa San BOARD OF DIRECTORS District N~I 1.

DOLAN General Manager-Chief Engineer DATE 12/17/79 SUBJA[!)OPT CLASS DESCRIPTION FOR THE POSITION OF CLERK TYPE OF ACTION TYPIST I, SALAR Y RANGE 45, $1011-$1219 AND CANCEL CLASS PERSONNEL DESCRIPTION OF RECORDS CLERK AND ADOPT CLASS DESCRIPTION FOR CLERK TYPIST II RANGE 49 1110- 1339 SUBMITTED BY INITIATING DEPT./DIV. Gail B. Koff, Personnel Officer Personnel ISSUE: A need exists to establish a new entry level clerical position. BACKGROUND: The Board recently adopted a promotional examination procedure for the lower level positions at the District. In order to allow the clerical-secretarial employees to participate in this program, it is necessary to establish an entry level position called Clerk Typist I. The class description for this position performs similar type responsibilities to that of a Records Clerk, but the work would be less complex in nature and would allow for the necessary continuous supervision which new employees usually require. Under our new promotional procedure, persons employed in this classification would become eligible to participate in the examination for the higher level classification, Clerk Typist II, after an 18-month period of employment. This higher level classification requires the employee to complete more complex assignments and is expected to work more independently than the entry level position. The minimum qualifications of the Clerk Typist II position has been increased to require a minimum typing speed of 50 words per minute from clear copy and the experience qualification has been increased from one to two years to conform with the promotional requirements. The Records Clerk class description has been changed to reflect the adjusted level of responsibility and experience required and the title has been changed to Clerk Typist II to conform with the other promotional classes of the District. RECOMMENDA TION: Adopt class description for the position of Clerk Typist I, Range 45, $1011-$1219; cancel description of Records Clerk, Range 49, $1l10-$1339 and adopt class description of Clerk Typist II, Range 49, $1l10-$1339 effective January 10, 1980. ~.
