REPORT TO CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION
SUBJECT
Title
Action to Modify the Class Specification for Service Coordinator Inspector
Report
BACKGROUND
The Human Resources Department in coordination with Silicon Valley Power request to modify the minimum qualifications for the class specification of Service Coordinator Inspector based on the authority of Personnel & Salary Resolution, Sec. 6(d), “Classification specifications for positions in the Classified Service must first be approved and adopted by the City of Santa Clara Civil Service Commission before they may be approved and adopted by the City Council.” This class specification has not been modified since 2009.
DISCUSSION
The proposed modification results in a revision to the Minimum Qualifications section of the classification specification for Service Coordinator Inspector. Currently, the classification specification requires a valid California Class A driver’s license or the ability to obtain a Class A license within six months of employment. The proposed modification removes the requirement and makes the Class A driver’s license requirement desirable. Staff believes this modification will aid in recruitment for the position without negatively impacting operations or productivity.
There is no proposed change to the weighting plan for Service Coordinator Inspector.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The action being considered does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(5) in that it is a governmental organizational or administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect changes in the environment.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact to revising the class specification other than staff time.
PUBLIC CONTACT
