NEIGHBORHOOD SERVICES COORDINATOR DESCRIPTION 17 September 2017 PERSONNEL REQUISITION [Neighborhood Services Coordinator] The following questions are provided as guidelines to assist you in developing your rational for the position of Neighborhood Services Coordinator in the Community Development Department. Depending upon your situation, some questions may or may not apply. Please provide written responses to these questions as part of your preparation for meeting with the Mayor. (1) What are the key job responsibilities of this position? To serve as the main link between Recognized Neighborhood Associations, nonprofit agencies and the like and city departments in facilitating communication and access to technical support for projects, activities and community events that are beneficial to healthy growth. (2) Can the job responsibilities of this position be assigned to other employees within the department? If no, why not? No, because other staff members are carrying full loads and this is somewhat of a specialized position. (3) How is the work of this position being accomplished now? The position was vacant anticipating the return of previous NS Coordinator, but never was able to come back to work. We therefore kept putting off hiring even a temp, but due to necessity of projects and activities we hired a part-time staff person since January 2017. (4) Are the filled positions in your department currently being utilized to their maximum potential? Yes and beyond capacity. Currently we have 2 vacancies, but interviewing candidates and hope to offer positions within 30 days. (5) How would filling this position meet the needs of your department or the City on either a short-term basis (if temporary position) or a long-term basis (if a regular position)? Due to medical leave of prior staff, we have lost a lot of ground and opportunities. Filling the position on a long term basis would allow us to assist with major neighborhood initiatives, such as National Night Out, neighborhood clean ups, technical assistance and overall communication regarding of city services offered to its citizens. (6) What cost savings or revenues, if any, would your department or the City realize if this position is filled? There would be none of either. (7) If you are paying overtime or comp time within your department to accomplish this work now, how much overtime or comp time has been paid out or earned that is directly attributable to this position and over what period of time? No overtime will be incurred. (8) (9) How has the work load or demands of your department changed in comparison to your staffing levels over the past three fiscal years? Provide statistics if possible. This position is unlike others in that it is a division and staff of one that has technical support from the community development department. But due the absence of the coordinator, the CD director and secretary (both who are performing Contract Compliance duties as well) were picking up some of the duties prior to hiring the part time person. With the recent announcement of the City being awarded a lead remediation grant, the work demands will go up due to the need to meet performance benchmarks. This will also compel us to hire additional staff that was included in the grant budget to meet expected benchmarks. If this position is not filled, what affect will it have on your department? What work will not get done? What costs will you incur? Please be as specific as possible. Not filling the position adds to the already extended burden of existing staff and will push performance of the involvement of our residents engaged in community embetterment back. I can't put a dollar figure on what costs will incur, but know that there will be intangible opportunities missed due to not having the leadership and guidance of the Coordinator to spearhead dialogue and events. (10) How do you cover the responsibilities for this position whenever the incumbent is out on vacation? It will not be covered, unless done so by Community Development staff. (11) Is it possible that the City could outsource this position to an outside agency? If so, what savings, if any, would the City realize as a result of this change? Not to my knowledge, but I wouldn't consider doing it. (12) How would you rank this position in terms of its contribution to City business in comparison with other positions reporting to you? The position is critical in maintaining and expanding the city's role in providing a liaison with the community; primarily the neighborhood associations and non- profits. Our other positions and services are concentrated on mostly individual household needs, verses this position that focuses on and gives attention to larger and more comprehensive initiatives and geographical areas. (13) How does this position impact the Goals and Objectives for the City adopted by the City Council? The position is instrumental in supporting Goal # 2 of assisting the Community Policing strategy by providing a liaison with the neighborhoods that play a vital role in partnering with public safety officials working towards maintaining safe communities and environments and Goal # 4 by working at continual enhancing of our community image by providing a point person to facilitate events and activities that reflect the best that the community has to offer, while addressing any deficiencies that may exist.
