Sewer District - Personnel and Equipment Needs
FROM:
RE:
As you have previously notified the Commissioners, staff has
been analyzing the current and immediate future needs of the
growing sewer system. This submittal includes our
recommendations and request for new positions,
re-classifications, and new equipment. Attached are job
descriptions for the positions and a table showing our needs
projected for this fiscal year plus the next five years.
While all positions indicated as needed are not Engineering
slots, all new positions are needed due to the impact of the
system. All positions indicated perhaps with the exception
of the Assistant Finance Director will be fully funded
through the Sewer District. All equipment will be funded
through the Sewer District.
I will describe what we are requesting and why. As a
summary I will provide specific action we are requesting.
It should be noted that both the Commissioners and the Sewer
District Board need to act on the recommendations.
I will first address personnel needs:
Clerk Typist III (Range 56) - One (1) position needed. This
position will provide secretarial assistance to the
Engineering Secretary in preparing the paperwork for
acquisition of easements, processing payments, processing
tap requests (approximately 10,000 anticipated by 1994).
The current clerical staff simply cannot absorb the
additional work from the sewer development without
assistance.

position is a technician supervisory slot. The position will
supervise the three (3) existing inspector positions and
provide plan review and analysis.
Meter Reader (Range 57) - Four (4) positions needed. This
position involves field work in reading and recording water
consumption for billing purposes and replacing
malfunctioning water meters.
Utility Helper (Range 57) - One (1) new position needed. One
position existing at Grade 53. Requesting upgrade of the
position. The position involves skilled work in assisting
the foreman on the maintenance crew.
Utility Maintenance Foreman (Range 63) - One (1) hew
position needed. One position existing at Grade 65.
Requesting down grade of position. The position involves
technical and supervisory work as leadman on the maintenance

of all field maintenance crews in the daily operation and
maintenance of the water and sewer systems.

Mr. Cooper

Equipment needs are as follows:
Radio System - Initial cost $500,000 - $750,000 to be
financed over five (5) years. The sewer pump stations (some
70-~00 in number) will be monitored by radio signal. For
normal utility voice communication an additional system
would need to be utilized. We have found a system that can
combine both systems. Ultimately, other departments can
also come into the system providing day-to-day.communication
operations on a fleet and sub-fleet basis without cross
interference. In times of emergency the separate radios can
be combined to operate as an emergency network thus
providing a control communications system which has been a
weakness in past events. I am working with our COG regional
office to search for grants to assist with this purchase.
Trucks - To be bid. Various size vehicles are needed to
provide support for inspectors, maintenance crews, and meter
readers.
Backhoe and Trailer - To be bid. This major equipment is
need to provide excavation capabilities for maintenance,
repair, and sewer tap construction.
Sewer Jet - To be bid. This major piece of equipment is
needed to clean the sewer pipes.
Miscellaneous Equipment This includes pumps, soil
compactors, air compressor, desks, chairs, tables, files,
saws, etc. All these items are necessary for support
functions for the sewer system.
These equipment and personnel needs are considered minimum
for operation and maintenance of the system. I request you
review these and present them to the Sewer Board and County
Commissioners at the January 20th meeting. The Sewer Board
should endorse these needs and the County Commissioners need
to take the fOllowing action:
(1) Approve the following positions and re-classifications
to be filled in the fiscal years indicated.
(a) Clerk Typist III at Grade 56 (One new position) -
Fiscal Year 1985.
(b) Utility Engineer at Grade 70 (One new position) -
Fiscal Year 1985.

JUSTIFICATION FOR
ASSISTANT COUNTY FINANCE DIRECTOR
INCREASE IN MAGNITUDE OF BUDGETS (OPERATING FUNDS)
BUDGET FY 80-81 $26,173,987
PRESENT BUDGET FY 85-86 58,169,057
This represents an increase of 122% in dollars which must be
properly controlled, invested and accounted for.
Over 20,000 invoices have been processed through 1-9-86 of this FY.
Increase in magnitude of Capital Project Budgets:
With the impact of the Water and Sewer Construction Projects
and the Airport Terminal Building Project, the County will be
spending in excess of $85,000,000 over the next five to seven
years.
Additional responsibilities since FY 78-79:
Emergency medical services receivables
Airport receivables
Parking tickets
Incinerator charges
Water charges
Sewer charges
Grants management
In-house preparation of: Annual Financial Report
Indirect Cost Plan
Finance Director's additional supervisory responsibilities with
MIS and Tax Department.
The overall impact of the above has led to the majority of the
Finance Director's time being taken up by the day-to-day operations.
With the increase in the variety of responsibilities and the in-
crease in volume of expenditures, it is imperative that proper
time be spent in planning and establishing proper goals.
A large amount of planning and coordination of spending must be
done in relation to the Sewer District Construction Projects.
This area alone will take a considerable portion of time and
effort. Timing of bond and note sales must be accurate so funds
will be on hand when needed to meet construction costs. As areas
are brought on-line, the billing function must be planned for
properly in a joint effort with MIS and Engineering.
The new accounting software package is very sophisticated and re-
quires a high level of accounting knowledge to properly utilize
all the features. This position will be responsible for having
this expertise so the Finance Director is free to be in other
planning sessions or meeting with other management personnel.
JUSTIFICATION FOR
ASSISTANT COUNTY FINANCE DIRECTOR
Page 2
Evaluation of the month to month revenues and expenditures in order
to accurately plan cash flows or fund balances can be done on a more
regular basis with the addition of this position.
It is anticipated that 25-75% of this position's time will be
dedicated to the Water and Sewer District during the next four to
five years, while construction is being undertaken.
