Appendix B Recommended Personnel and Costs for the Environment and Resource Conservation Department 1. Administrative Assistant II - Proposed new permanent full -time position Because there are no existing administrative assistants in Planning that could be re- assigned without dramatically affecting the ability of Planning to address the boards and staff it retains, it is recommended that a new Administrative Assistant position be established for this department. The Administrative Assistant would be needed due to the responsibilities of supporting staff and developing commission /board minutes for several boards. Associated Costs: $18,000 (half -year salary and benefits) Impact on Planning Department Projects: None. 2. GIS Project Coordinator - Proposed reassignment of existing permanent full -time position. This position would be responsible for coordinating GIS products and the land records database for staff and the commissions /boards that the department supports. It is recommended that current GIS Project Coordinator Beth Young be re- assigned to the ERCD. As one of two existing Planning GIS members, Beth has had many occasions to produce coverages of an environmental and resource conservation nature, including recent work with the Triangle Land Conservancy on the "Landscape With Wildlife" report. Associated Costs: None Impact on Planning Department Projects: A substantial portion (perhaps over 50 %) of recent duties for Planning GIS personnel has been related to environmental or resource - oriented projects. As this position becomes part of the new department, existing Planning GIS projects in this field will be accordingly reassigned to the ERCD. One GIS workstation and access to a second would be shifted to the new department, consistent with the shift in workload and projects. 17
