On Target

Control Staffing Levels and County Costs by Reviewing All Requests for Staffing Changes and Vacancies for Revenue Availability and Staffing Alternatives.

County Executive Office
Description
There will be no unfunded positions included in the budget or staffing resolution. The vacancy review instituted over eight years ago remains in effect to create a pool of positions to either be eliminated if the State continues to divert local revenues or to be filled to avoid layoffs if other positions are eliminated. All positions will be reviewed. If revenue contingent positions lose their funding from the State or Federal governments, those positions will be eliminated first before other cuts are enacted. No new positions will be considered unless there is new income for the positions that covers not only the cost of the position, but any indirect and overhead costs as well. There must also be a reasonable explanation that there will be an ongoing funding stream for any new position.
Progress Update
  • County staff continue the vacancy review process before vacant positions are filled
  • County Executive Office staff have reviewed and evaluated all department requests for staffing changes for the upcoming FY 23/24 budget development cycle
Next Steps
  • Staffing change requests will be reviewed and, if approved, incorporated into FY 23/24 budgets
  • County leadership will continue to evaluate targeted staffing increases as departments receive additional sustainable revenue to meet objectives and community needs
