RESOLUTION NO. 2004-306
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA DELETING ONE PRINCIPAL LANDSCAPE
ARCHITECT POSITION, ADDING ONE SENIOR FISCAL
OFFICE SPECIALIST POSITION AND ADDING ONE
LOCKSMITH POSITION
WHEREAS, several months ago, the City's Principal Landscape Architect position (a
middle management position) became vacant; and
WHEREAS, the unit has been operating under the direct supervision of the Building and
Parks Construction Manager since the vacancy occurred; and
WHEREAS, the management of the department recommends that the Principal
Landscape Architect position is not necessary for the continued operations of the unit; and
WHEREAS, one of the main reasons for this determination is the move of construction
from the turn-key (developer constructed parks) method of construction to the designlbuild
method of construction (City constructed); and
WHEREAS, staff recommends that the two Landscape Architects (middle managers) are
capable of managing the day-to-day operations of the unit under the direction of the Building and
Parks Construction Manager, therefore rendering the Principal Landscape Architect position
unnecessary; and
WHEREAS, the General Services Department transferred One of the Administrative
Analysts that had been assigned to the City's Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) group to the
Engineering Division to oversee all of the fiscal activities ofthe division; and
WHEREAS, this transfer leaves a hole in the fiscal management aspect of the
Department's CIP related activities; and
WHEREAS, staff recommends that this vacancy be filled by the addition of a Senior
Fiscal Office Specialist who will focus on the administrative processing of payments to
contractors and consultants and manage the insurance issues with respect to CIP projects; and
WHEREAS, this position will also provide other fiscal related administrative services to
all department groups such as back-up on payroll distribution, budget assistance and bill paying;
and
WHEREAS, with the recent opening of the new police facility, relocation of City Hall
staff to the former police headquarters, design of the Civic Center renovations and the impending
opening of two new fire stations (Stations 6 and 8) and three new recreation centers (Veterans,
Salt Creek and Montevalle), plus the additional heightened security issues all governmental
agencies are facing, the sheer volume oflock related work has increased tremendously; and
WHEREAS, in addition, the increase in the complexity of the locks the City utilizes has
increased substantially; and
