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.

HR found that the incumbent is performing duties consistent with the classification of a Legal Assistant and that the incumbent is also in possession of the requisite certification of the Assistant classification.

ALTERNATIVE ACTION/MOTION:
Direct staff to study alternatives.
