The <br />Visitor Bureau Director position was established in 1992. It <br />initially was set up on a flat rated salary rather than with a salary <br />grade and range in the classification and pay plan. The reason <br />for this is it was to be determinetl whether the Visitor Bureau <br />would become a separate non - profit agency or remain a County <br />function. <br />Since the Visitor Bureau is continuing as a County function, a <br />class title and salary grade for the Director's position needs to be <br />assigned in the Orange Counly's classification and pay plan. <br />Prior o beginning recruitment, the Personnel Department has <br />conducted a study of the position's classification. This has <br />included developing an updated position description, gaMenng <br />labor market data and reviewing comparisons with other County <br />positions. <br />
