CITY OF COLTON C��°Orvoratea x AGENDA REPORTJ• 110 S. j For Council Meeting of April 22, 1994 TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL DATE: April 20, 1994 FROM: JOHN J. PRINDEVILLE , Interim Personnel Director SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR CLARIFICATION OF COUNCIL'S INTENT REGARDING PERSONNEL DIRECTOR RECRUITMENT PER 4/19/94 ACTION BACKGROUND: At the Council Meeting of 4/19/94, you indicated it was your intent that the Personnel Director Recruitment continue. At different points in the discussion of this item, comments were made regarding Affirmative Action and also re -opening the recruitment. COMMENTS: A. While the open period for the recruitment that has been conducted was brief, 3/23/94 to 4/01/94, 6 of the applicants of the 23 who applied qualified (to the position as advertised, see attached) to continue in the selection process. The ethnic/gender statistics of these 6 are attached for your information. An oral panel could be arranged, these candidates examined, and an eligibility list developed in approximately two weeks. The successful candidate would probably have to give notice to their present employer and would have an estimated starting date of June 1, 1994. B. If it is Council's desire to re -open the recruitment for an additional period of time, the following information is requested: 1. How long should the open period be? 2. Should we advertise the same job specification as before? If not, 3. What position description should we advertise? Estimated time frames per B above, if we advertise the same position and open the recruitment for an additional month, the new Personnel Director would probably not start before mid-July. If we advertise a new job specification, because of specification development and approval time considerations, the new Director would likely not start before mid-August. As I cannot personally remain much beyond mid-May, the time elements outlined can be critical, considering unresolved meet and confer processes which must be addressed. Your direction is greatly appreciated. JP/kd Attachments 13
