ORANGE COUNTY <br />BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br />ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT <br />Meeting Date: June 26, 2007 <br />Action Agenda <br />Item No. ~- ~~,. <br />SUBJECT: Authorization for Manager to Contract with a Personnel Search Firm(s) During <br />BOCC Summer Break <br />DEPARTMENT: County Manager PUBLIC HEARING: (Y/N) No <br />ATTACHMENT(S): <br />INFORMATION CONTACT: <br />Laura Blackmon, 245-2300 <br />PURPOSE: To authorize the Manager to contract with a personnel search firm(s) during the <br />Board of County Commissioner's summer recess from June 27 until August 21, 2007 for the <br />vacant Emergency Services Director position and the vacant Economic Development Director <br />position. <br />BACKGROUND: Orange County currently has two vacant department head permanent <br />positions -the Emergency Services Director position and the Economic Development Director <br />position. The County Manager's Office and the Personnel Department recently completed a <br />hiring process for the Emergency Services Director position which included advertising, <br />interviewing and identification of final candidates. However, further consideration of the three <br />finalists for the position and additional discussions prompted the Manager to conclude the <br />search without a successful candidate. <br />For the recently-vacant Economic Development Director position, the Manager believes that it <br />will be a challenge to identify and secure candidates who will match well with the interests, <br />needs, demands, and intricacies of Orange County. The Manager is of the opinion that the <br />County's normal hiring process will not yield a list of candidates from which a successful <br />candidate can be determined. <br />In light of the above, the Manager proposes that the County contract with a personnel search <br />firm(s) to direct and guide the County in its hiring process for these two positions. As the Board <br />is aware, a personnel search firm was previously retained to direct the County's search and <br />hiring process for the County Manager. The Manager is seeking authorization to proceed at this <br />time rather than waiting until after the Board's summer break to present this proposal and a <br />possible contract, thereby losing approximately 2 months of time. <br />
