Item 8 - Add New Position Classification of Principal Civil Engineer to City of Poway Position Classification PlanFebruary 7, 2023, Item #8DATE: TO: FROM: CONTACT: SUBJECT: Summary: AGENDA REPORT February 7, 2023 Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council Robert Manis, Director of Development Services City of Poway CITY COUNCIL Jodene Dunphy, Director of Human Resources and Risk Management Robert Manis, Director of Development Services ~ (858) 668-4601 or bmanis@poway.org · Jodene Dunphy, Director of Human Resources and Risk Management f· (858) 668-4413 or jdunphy@poway.org Add a New Position Classification of Principal Civil Engineer to the City of Poway Position Classification Plan and Management/Confidential Salary Schedule One of the divisions of the City of Poway's Development Services Department is Capital Projects Engineering. Engineers in this division are responsible for the Capital Improvements Program (CIP}, which consists of the design and construction of all City projects, including the City's Annual Street Maintenance and Street Overlay projects. There is a current vacancy in the Senior Civil Engineer position within the Capital Projects Engineering division. Based on an organizational analysis of the engineering divisions within the department, staff is requesting the City Council approve a new classification of Principal Civil Engineer so that the Senior Civil Engineer position in Capital Projects Engineering could be reclassified to a Principal Civil Engineer. No additional Full Time Equivalent positions (FTEs) are being requested. The City currently has a similar level classification of Principal Civil Engineer-Utilities in the Public Works Department, with a job description that reflects the unique focus on utilities and the management of complex water infrastructure projects. The proposed new classification of Principal Civil Engineer will be established at the same salary grade as the Principal Civil Engineer -Utilities in the Public Works Department, but the new classification will have a job description that reflect responsibilities, qualifying experience and knowledge needed to perform duties for general capital projects. By approving a more general classification of Principal Civil Engineer, the City Manager will be able to reclassify the Senior Civil Engineer over CIP to Principal Civil Engineer. Recommended Action: It is recommended the City Council approve a resolution adding the classification of Principal Civil Engineer to the City of Poway Position Classification Plan and the Management/Confidential Salary Schedule effective February 7, 2023. 1 of7 February 7, 2023, Item #8Discussion: The City's ability to recruit and retain highly qualified and talented employees at the appropriate classification levels takes continual evaluation of City priorities to ensure positions are structured for success in providing high quality projects, services and programs to the Poway community. The recent vacancy of the Senior Civil Engineer position in the Capital Projects Engineering division of the Development Services Department provides an opportunity to evaluate what level position would successfully accomplish direct oversight and delivery of high-quality capital projects to the community. After a workforce analysis within the engineering division, a thorough review of staffing levels, internal strengths, and a review of the market, it has been determined that a Principal Civil Engineer overseeing the Capital Projects Engineering section is the appropriate classification based on: 1) the impact of the position's responsibilities and exposure to the community; 2) the need for high level negotiations with contractors and outside agencies; 3) the level of experience and knowledge needed to deliver high quality projects; 4) the consequence of error if responsibilities and expectations of the position are not met; 5) the level of accountability needed for the position, and 6) the responsibility of training and evaluating staff within the division. The Principal Civil Engineer will report to the City Engineer and supervise staff from the Capital Projects Engineering division, along with the City's Engineering Inspectors, all of whom are responsible for completing high quality projects within the City's CIP. Staff believes this will be best accomplished by the work of a Principal Civil Engineer. Based on an internal evaluation of the City of Poway classification and compensation structure and a market review, it is recommended the Principal Civil Engineer classification be placed in the Management/Confidential Employee Group 2A Exempt At-Will at Grade 731, with a monthly salary range of $9,937 -$12,080, which is the same salary grade as the Principal Civil Engineer -Utilities. Environmental Review: This action is not subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Fiscal Impact: The estimated annual cost increase for reclassifying the Senior Civil Engineer to Principal Civil Engineer is $18,802. The cost increase for the remainder of Fiscal Year 2022-23 is approximately $7,600 (including salary and benefits). Sufficient funds are available in the department's budget to cover the expenses for the current fiscal year due to salary savings from current vacancies. Public Notification: None. Attachments: A.
