HONORABLE CITY COUNCIL 5
FROM:CITY MANAGER DEPARTMENT: COMMUNITY SERVICES
DATE:OCTOBER 25, 2004 CMR: 427:04
SUBJECT:COMMUNITY SERVICES DEPARTMENT RESTRUCTURING
INCLUDING ADOPTION OF ABUDGET AMENDMENT
ORDINANCE AMENDING THE TABLE OF ORGANIZATION
AND AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE MUNCIPAL CODE TO
CREATE NEW DEPARTMENTAL DIVISIONS
REPORT IN BRIEF
As part of the City Manager’s efforts to "Strengthen the Bottom Line", senior
managelnent has committed to review organizational vacancies and retirements seeking
opportunities to restructure and reorganize operations. Due to this economic necessity,
staff retirements and the creation of a new Department of Libraries, the Community
Services Department has developed a succession and restructuring plan that reduces
management staffing by 2.5 FTE and reduces hourly staffing by .5 FTE, flattens the
organizational structure, and saves $340,939 annually in salary and benefits costs. This
plan also proposes to maintain current service levels of all divisions in the Community
Services Department. This report requests Council approval for changes to the Table of
Organization, the addition of recommended new classifications, and the creation of new
departmental divisions in order to implement the plan.

BACKGROUND
In the past few years the City of Palo Alto has seen General Fund revenues decline
significantly while experiencing dramatic increases in benefit and retirement costs. Due
to these budgetary pressures, senior department managers were directed to assess their
Departments to determine if restructuring and reorganization opportunities could result in
cost reductions yet maintain existing services levels. During the 2003-04 budget
Community Services eliminated 2.0 FTE positions.
Subsequently, the Cormnunity Services Department began to experience retirements at
the upper lnanagement levels of the organization. The Community Services Director and
Cubberley Manager retired in spring of 2004. The Director of Arts and Culture retired in
July 2004; and in January 2005, the Director of Recreation, Open Space and Sciences
will retire. These retirements represent almost 100 years of institutional knowledge.
The department structure was also changed when its Library Division became a separate
department. These factors have presented an opportunity for CSD management to
reassess both structure and resources.
DISCUSSION
In order to meet the economic and organizational issues it faced, the Community Services
Department has developed a restructuring and succession plan to mitigate the loss of
seasoned managers and reduce the impact to the General Fund. This succession plan
eliminates positions and promotes in-house talent to larger roles of responsibility, thus
flattening the organization. For example, the Recreation and Youth Sciences Division
CMR:427:04 Page 2 of 6
will remove one level of management with the elimination of the Recreation
Superintendent classification. At the administrative level, the elimination of the Deputy
Director position, the reassignment of infrastructure staff to the Public Works Department
and the creation of the Cubberley Center and Human Services Division also flattens and
clarifies reporting channels within the department’s organizational structure.
(Attachments F, G)
The department structure is also redesigned to make better use of its management and
classified talent and physical resources. An example of this type of organizational
restructuring is the creation of the new Open Space Division which eliminates another yet
another management layer.
The following information describes the staffing and organizational changes and cost
savings associated with the recommended succession and restructuring plan. For a more
in depth analysis see Attachment E, "Financial Analysis of CSD’s Proposed
Reorganization Plan" which provides costing and adjustments to full time equivalent
(FTE) data and Attachments F and G which outline the Colnmunity Services Department
organizational restructuring.
CSD Administration: Even though the position of Deputy Director was eliminated
during the 2003-04 budget year, the administrative job functions attached to the
position still remain. This request reclassifies a position to the department
administrative level, which will be responsible for the department’s budget, grants,
technology, and business functions. This position is created through the
elimination of a vacant 1.0 FTE Executive Assistant position located in the
Recreation and Youth Sciences division and the addition of a l.0 FTE Senior
Administrator (to be under-filled at the lower Administrator level to create
additional cost savings) reporting to the director of Community Services. The new
position will cost an additional $18,871 per year, whicl~ is offset by the $137,621
of savings from the eliminated Deputy Director position. Additionally, 2.0 FTE of
capital project management staff were transferred to the Public Works Department
consequently freeing up CSD management resources that could be better
channeled towards service delivery~ ......
Cubberley Center and Human Services: This is an add/drop request to move the
incumbent Human Services Director into a newly developed cla, ssification,
Cubberley Center and Human Services Division Manager. The new position .will
be responsible for both the Cubberley and Human Services operations. Since the
retirement of the Cubberley Manager, staff has begun a cross-training program to
empower both the Human Services and Cubberley staff members to work together,
in a team approach, allowing Cubberley to maintain its excellent customer service
tradition. This restructuring will cost approximately $12,000 of salary adjustment
CMR:427:04 Page 3 of 6
and is offset by the $109,333 savings from the elimination of the Cubberley
manager position.
In order for the Cubberley Center and Human Services Division Manager to
successfully take on the management of both operations, she requires additional
l~roject supervision that an Office Specialist cannot perform but a Program
Assistant can. A reclassification of an existing Office Specialist to Program
Assistant will ~accomplish this, with an approximate annual salary increase of
$5,329 per year.
This shift will also move the Cubbertey operation from being a branch of CSD
administration and make it a new division named the Cubberley Center and
Human Services Division.
Parks Operations: This request drops a 1.0 FTE Golf Equipment Mechanic
located in the Parks operation and adds a new classification, a. 1.0 FTE Parks
Maintenance Person Lead. This is a cost-neutral change in that operating budget
dollars now used for contracted park repairs will be used to fund the upgrade. The
change will provide a higher level of playground and park equipment repair than is
available through existing staff and contracts. Additionally, a second related
request adjusts the Parks Superintendent’s compensation to better align with CSI)
and citywide counterparts. The cost of the realignment is $4,467 per year.
Golf Course: This restructuring eliminates a management classification, Golf
Course Supervisor, and creates a new classified position, Parks/Golf Crew Lead.
The position will report directly to the Golf Course Superintendent and be
responsible for leading and performing crew maintenance Work. Approximate
annual savings from this shift are $18,000 per year and it reduces CSD
management by 1 :FTE. Additionally, a second related request adjusts the Golf
Course Superintendent’s compensation..to better align with CSD and citywide
counterparts. The cost of the realignmentis $4,467 per year.
Arts and Culture: This conversion combines a regular 0,5 FTE Facility Assistant
position (now vacant) with 0.5 FTE hourly salaries to form a 1.0 FTE regular
Office Specialist position that will be responsible for class registration and facility
supervision. The new position will be under-filled at .75 FTE in order to reduce
costs.
The Arts and Culture Director’s position will remain vacant until the completion
of the in progress strategic plan and a recommendation will be forthcoming as how
to proceed. In the interim, the Children’s Theatre manager and the Art Center
CMR:427:04 Page 4 of 6
manager are sharing the vacant director’s responsibilities. Annual cost savings
while the position remains unfilled are $153,117.
Recreation, Open Space and Sciences: In Deeember 2004 the incumbent
Recreation, Open Space and Sciences (ROSS) Director is retiring. Once this
happens, the 1.0 FTE Recreation Superintendent and the 1.0 FTE ROSS Director
classifications will be eliminated. A new classification, a 1.0 FTE Recreation and
Youth Sciences Division Manager, will be created to manage the Recreation and
Jr. Museum and Zoo operations. Open Space will become a new division of the
department and be led by the incumbent Open Space Superintendent, in a newly
created classification, Open Space Division Manager. Total salary and benefits
savings from this shif~ is $145,393 per year.
In order to clarify internal reporting relationships and external job market
comparisons all CSD division-head classification titles have been changed to
"Division Manager". As an example the director of Parks and Golf will now be
classified as the Parks and Golf Division Manager.
It is important to note that one of the impacts of these recommendations is a reduction of
administrative expertise and support throughout the department. The Human Resources
Department is currently reviewing support job classifications and responsibilities in the
Community Services Depamnent. As the reorganization moves forward, further
reclassifications or redistributions in resources may become desirable.
Additionally, in order to better understand its role in the City organization and the needs
of the community it serves, the department has initiated a strategic planning effort. The
completed plan will create a set of goals and redistribute resources to meet the
community’s recreation, arts, parks and human service needs for the next five years. The
plan is expected to be complete in spring 2005 and will represent the final phase of the
department’ s restructuring.
RESOURCE IMPACT
The Community Services Department proposed reorganization plan will eliminate 2.50
regular FTE and .5 FTE of hourly salary with an estimated annual salary and benefits
savings of $340,939.
Of this savings, $246,954 was already incorporated in the 2004-05 Adopted Budget due
to the anticipated removal of 2.0 FTES (Deputy Director and Cubberley Manager) while
the remaining balance will be recognized in the 2004-05 Adjusted Budget. Since CSD’s
reorganization plan has two phases of implementation (October 1, 2004 and January 1,
2005), the earning of this annual savings will be prorated based on the period that this
reorganization plan will be implemented. Attachment E "Financial Analysis of CSD’s
CMR:427:04 Page 5 of 6
Proposed Organization Plan" provides details of the savings. The estimated amendment
to 2004-05 the Budget is an increase of $48,065 to the Budget Stabilization Reserve
balance. On an annual basis, the increase to the Budget Stabilization Reserve would be
$93,985.
POLICY IMPLICATIONS
On approval of this recommendation section 22 of the Municipal Code will be mnended
to indicate the new divisions of the department and new division head titles.
