Cons: This option reduces the amount of time that Mr. Brama can spend working with the new Economic Development Manager; eliminates the possibility of some assistance to Human Resources; keeps Mr. Brama tied to things like Happy Days which are not a good use of his skill -set; and reduces the amount of time he can spend on city-wide marketing and communications. In addition, aside from lighter economic development responsibilities, this option does not reduce the unsustainable schedule (hours worked per week) causing significant burn -out. Alternative #3 Revise the Management Analyst salary range to more closely match the market rate and authorize an early step change/not recommended. Pros: This option reduces some of the internal equity differences. Cons: This is not an effective approach to solving the situation. Recommendation: To make a motion, which upon City Council approval, will authorize promoting Mr. Patrick Brama to the position of Assistant to the City Administrator, at step 1 of the wage scale/$27.91 per hour, and authorize hiring a part-time temporary Intern to work the equivalent of 20 to 30 hours per week at $11.00 per hour for 6-months. Funding Source: The additional funding required to promote the Management Analyst (assuming a mid -March, 2013 effective date) is approximately $12,000 (85% General Fund/15% HRA). The additional funding required to hire a part-time temporary Intern ranges from $6203 at 20 hours per week to $9305 at 30 hours per week. The total budget impact for both changes would not exceed $18,203 to $21,305. The 2013 budget, through current projected savings to the General Fund, would satisfy these funding requirements. Council Action: Motion to approve a resolution, which confirms the recommendation of the Personnel Committee to authorize promoting Mr. Patrick Brama to the position of Assistant to the City Administrator, at step 1 of the wage scale/$27.91 per hour, and authorize hiring a part-time temporary Intern to work the equivalent 20-30 hours per week at $11.00 per hour for 6-months. Or Motion to approve a resolution, which confirms the recommendation of the Personnel Committee to authorize promoting Mr. Patrick Brama to the position of Assistant to the City Administrator, at step 1 of the wage scale/$27.91 per hour, without hiring an Intern............ Or Motion to approve a resolution, which confirms the recommendation of the Personnel Committee to deny the promotion of the Mr. Patrick Brama and hiring a part-time temporary Intern.
