RECOMMENDATION
Title
APPROVE:
A. the correction of the Board Clerk position of the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority from a Pay Grade HAA to Pay Grade HBB; and
B. the Board Clerk position annual salary of $168,896 retroactive October 4, 2021.
Issue
ISSUE
At the May 26, 2022 Board Meeting, the FY23 Budget was approved and included within it was Recommendation D to "approve the pay grade upgrade for the Board Clerk job classification from Pay Grade H1P to Pay Grade HAA". However, to make this position comparable to other positions with similar responsibilities, the position should have been upgraded to a Pay Grade HBB. In addition, the annual salary of this position needs to be approved by the Board.
Background
BACKGROUND
The Board Clerk position was previously responsible for overseeing Board Administration and Legal Services. In September 2021, an agencywide realignment transferred the Research Department, including the Dorothy Peyton Gray Research Library & Archive, the Records Management Center, and Systems/Electronic Records, to the Office of Board Administration. The purpose of this realignment was to ensure that all of Metro's records are housed under one cabinet department.
Discussion
DISCUSSION
Upon reviewing the increased responsibilities, complexity, staffing, and budgetary oversight of the Board Clerk position and reviewing comparable job classifications and pay grades within Metro, it was determined that the Pay Grade would be upgraded from an H1P to an HBB. With the addition of the Research Department, the size of the Office of Board Administration increased from 9 FTEs to 22 FTEs. In addition, the budgetary oversight increased from $500K to $2.3M.
