The changes will:
• update the organizational chart to show the current appointed positions that serve at the pleasure of the County Commissioners, as well as the supervisory structure. When theDeputy County Administrator (DCA) position becomes vacant on February 23, 2007, the organizations under the supervision of the DCA, the Departments of Emergency Services and Information Technology and the Human Services Partnership, will be under the aegis of the County Administrator on an interim basis.
• modernize and relocate the Purchasing Office from the Department of Fiscal Services to a new Office of Procurement under the auspices of the County Administrator to improve the in-house system of checks and balances, by separating the purchasing function from budgeting and accounting.
• reorganize the County Commissioners’ Office in order to: provide adequate staff during normal business hours, meet the Commissioners’ goals and objectives, and improve communication and the overall operation of the Office. The reorganization will result in a change in job descriptions, rearrangement of the location of staff and equipment, and the reduction of two staff positions. The affected staff will be transferred to other positions in County Government.
• evaluate the feasibility of consolidating County and Board of Education (BOE) training programs, as well as County, BOE and Sheriff’s Office Information Technology (IT) operations. One work group will be appointed to transition County training programs to the BOE. Another work group and/or consultant will be appointed to evaluate how to combine the three IT operations in order to improve efficiency and consistency and compatibility of hardware and software.
“These interim changes will help us reduce costs, streamline operations, avoid duplication of effort, and achieve our goal to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of County Government and provide better, cost-effective service to our citizens,” said the County Commissioners.
