HUSTON, CITY MANAGER R=P FROM: HUMAN RESOURCES DEPARTMENT SUBJECT: APPROVE RESOLUTION AMENDING THE CITY'S CLASSIFICATION AND COMPENSATION PLANS SUMMARY: Adopts new class specifications and hourly wages for the positions of Police Reserve Officer Level I/Level II, Police Reserve Officer Level III, a new classification specification for Police Services Officer and amends the City's Classification and Compensation Plans. RECOMMENDATION' Adopt Resolution No. 02-93 amending the City's Classification and Compensation Plans, adopt the new class specifications and authorize hourly wages for Police Reserve Officer Level I/Level II and Police Reserve Officer Level III and approve the new class specification for Police Services Officer. FISCAL IMPACT: Approximately $50,000 in FY 2002~2003. BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION: For many years the City has had individuals serving as Police Reserve Officers on a voluntary basis. These individuals have been paid a monthly stipend of $100. Participation in our program has diminished over the years and many individuals interested in pursuing a career in law enforcement will serve in a City that provides some level of compensation for their service. As you may be aware, recruiting Police Officers has become increasingly more difficult; each year the number of individuals interested seems to diminish. One of the tools that many Cities use to enhance its candidate pool for sworn Police Officers is to train individuals, beginning in the middle and high school years through a Police Explorer program, and then continuing the training process through Police Reserve Officer programs. These programs can serve as an additional resource when conducting recruitments for full time Police Officers. S:\City Council Agenda Items~002\Staff Report Paid Police Reserve Officer. doc Agenda Report October 7, 2002 Page 2 The attached class' specifications of Police Reserve Officer - Level I/Level II and Police Reserve Officer- Level III incorporate the requirements of the Police Officer Standards and Training (POST) and the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) by identifying the essential functions and physical requirements of the classifications. Staff is recommending a flat hourly rate for each of the classifications with the highest hourly rate of $20.04 (Police Reserve Officer - Level I) being set at the median of our ten-city survey group. All Reserve Officers will be at-will employees, serving at the pleasure of the Police Chief. These individuals will have no guarantee of longevity, hours, or scheduling. The City currently has 8 active Reserve Police Officers; 3 who will be classified Level I, 1 will be classified Level II, and 4 will be classified Level III. Also attached for approval is a class specification for Police Services Officer; a non- sworn classification in the Police Department. Individuals are typically assigned to a functional area such as Desk Officer, Court Liaison Officer, School Program Liaison Officer, etc. The new specification adds the duties and responsibilities associated with crime scene investigation and incorporates the essential functions and physical requirements of the position as required by the ADA. Pursuant to the City's Personnel Rules and Regulations, the City is required to maintain both Classification and Compensation Plans covering all classes of positions in the City service. The City Council is required to adopt, amend and revise such Plans by Resolution. Adoption of Resolution 02-93 will ensure the City is in compliance with its Personnel Rules and Regulations, The costs associated with this Resolution are contained within the current budget as previously approved by the City Council so no budget adjustments will be necessary.
