Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
On June 24, 2025, the Board of Supervisors adopted the Master Position Allocation Table for the FY 2025-2026 Budget, Resolution Number 25-111.
Summary of Request:
The Human Resources Department is charged, as part of the overall maintenance of the classification and compensation plan, to evaluate current classifications, create new classifications (including appropriate salary levels), reclassify positions, examine requests for salary grade adjustments, analyze allocations, and make recommendations for additions, modifications, and corrections.
In November of 2024, Resolution 24-169 adopted title change and salary range revision to the Library Branch Manager MLS and Non-MLS. Following the study of the Library Branch Managers (MLS & Non-MLS), the County Librarian and Administrative Services Manager of the Mendocino County Library and the Human Resources classification and compensation team collaborated to conduct a comprehensive study of all remaining Library classifications.
The primary purpose of the study was to evaluate whether the library’s job classifications are current and comparable to those used in other county libraires, with particular attention to identifying opportunities to address classifications as needed. This study was intended to ensure that the library’s classification structure accurately reflects the duties and responsibilities of staff, aligns with industry standards, and supports the department’s organizational needs.
During its August 20, 2025, meeting, the Civil Service Commission approved three (3) new classifications, Bookmobile Driver I, Bookmobile Driver II, and Library Assistant I. The Commission also approved the title change and modifications for the existing Library Assistant to Library Assistant I; modifications to four (4) other library classifications and the abolishment of two (2) classifications, Bookmobile Driver and Library Associate. Additionally, the Commission approved the reclassification of eighteen (18) incumbents to various positions.
Upon completing the classification study, Human Resources also completed a salary study.
Human Resources requests the Board approve the proposed new classifications and salary recommendations, title change, reclassification of existing incumbents, and proposed salary revisions.
The fiscal impact shown below for the year is calculated at Step 5 during the pay period 20-25 (September 14, 2025) and includes the costs of benefits. The annual recurring cost shown below is calculated at Step 5 and includes the cost of benefits.
