TRE HONORABLE CIT~ COUNCIL
Palo Alto, california
'.,
Attention: Finance committee
utilities pepart~ent OrqanizotioD§l plan Proposal
Members of the council:
Report in Brief
REVISED FiNAl.
9
This staff report requests the City Council approve a ~esolution
and Budget Amendment Ordinance (BAO) Changing two authorized
positions in the Utilities Department. These actions will not
increase staffinq levels and w1l1 result in a slight decrease in
sal.aries. Council approval will allow staff to proceed with a
reorqanization of the Utilities Department without delay.
The appointment of the Director of Utilitie.s in September 1993
resulted in the need to refill the Assistant Director of utiiities,
Er.qineering' position. This action was purposely dela.yed pending-all
internal evaluation of the Utilities Department orqanization. The
appoint.ent of a new Utilities Director provided an appropriate
opportunity to evaluate and, if necessary. recommend changes to the
Utilities Organization. The illl.portance of this evaluation is
highlighted by the events that have occurred during the last decade
with respect to the City Utilities resource situation, the
introduction of competition in the utility industry, and the global
environment, the -emergence a.nd oppcrtunitie.s provided by new
technologies such as fiber optics, and infrastruct.ure neec:ls. Based
upon this recently completed evaluation, staff recommends a
reorqanization of the Utilities Department with the need for a
chanqe or two management positions. Staff believes that Council
approval of the changes noted in this report vill allow the timely
recruitment of personnel with appropriate credentials and
experience. Accordinqly I this report recommends the following
changes to the Utili.ties Department:
1. I~mediate Changes
A. Combine the Engin~erinq Division and the operations
Division into the Engineering/Operations Division.
B. Eliminate the Assistant Oirector of utilities, Engineering
position and add the Assistant Director of Utilities,
Enqineering and Operations position.
C. Eliminate the Assistant Director of Utilities, Operations
positi'On and. d,,jd, the Manager of Utility Rates position.
D. Combine the Resource Planning section and the Resource
Conservation section intC'lo the Resource Management Division.
2. Change in the PY 1995-96 Budget:
A. Eliminate. the Deputy Director position and add the
As Distant Director of utilities, Resource Management
pgsition (upon the departure of the Deputy Director:
planned for 7/l/95).
BackgrQund
Approxiaately 20 years aqo, the Palo Alto Electric Department and
the Water-Gas-Sewer Depi.'Irtlllent 'We.re combined into one Utilities
Department under a Utilities Director. The organization initially
operated functionally unaer three divisions, Administration,
Engine~ring and Operations~
over the years the work force and ol."qanization have changed due to
new regulatory roquirements, the need to acquire supplemental power
resources, infrastrlJlicture maintenance and development, an increased
focus on environmental issues, the intr<:xiuction of competition,
rate-structure designs and other efforts to minimize peak demand
and to ensure energy and water conservation. The changing macket
conditions, both in purchases and sales, business retention and new
tedL~oloqy are now creating the need for mo~e emphasis on improving
the delivery of utility services.
The utilities Department needs to be reorganized to be e~fective in
coord.inatinq exi5tinq programs and in meeting changing worll:load
priorities. Chart 1 (attached) consolidates all proposad
orqaniz~tion changes. Chart 2 shows the current organization with
seven. positions reporting to the Dit'"ector-~ Four divisions now
operate under the Director (Administrative Servic~s., Resource
Planninq, Engineering and Operations): hoyever, the Resource
Planning Division is currently separated into Resource Planning and
Resource Conservation.

This report addresses three areas:
1. Utility organizational Divisions
2. Assistarlt Director-s (A/Oj: nl.!lllber and responslbilities~
3. Additional staff support for the Director's office.
With the appointment of a new Director, the Assistant Director of
utilities, Enqineerinq position 1s ~~rrently unfilled. The
Assistant Director of Utilities, Resource Planninq has been
temporarily revised to a ~puty Director po~ition {tormer Oirector
of utilities assignad to this positionj. Two aaditional A/D
positions; Operations and Administrative Services are also
currently authorized.
The utilities Department has been organized acco~ing·to f~ctional
divisions for many years. The concept of functional divisions
versus. tvo separate departments (an Electric Department and a
wat:er-Gas-Wastewatex-Department) has proven to be a 5ucce&-sful way
of mar..aqill9 the electric, water. qas and wast6water utilities. The
question is, how many functional divisions should there be to
efficiently perf~rm the utilities mission?
Recogaen4e4 QrgaDiz~tlonal Changes
A. Coxbine Engineering Division and operations Division; Eliminate
AID Utilities, Enqineering and add AID Utilities, Engineerinq
and operations.
The Engineering Division and opErations Division necessarily work
together on a dbily basis. Tnis has been recognized ove~ the years
and was made manifest during the development of Functional Areas in
the Kiasion Driven Bu<iq:et.. All effort.s of tbese t .... o divisions are
directed to operating and ~intaininq the infrastructur~5 of the
four utilities~ capital ana Maintenance Programs have to be
developed, prioritized and implemented by these two divisions a The
close relationship between these two divisions can best be shown by
several examples ot exis.ting programs and the loc.ation/manaqement
oversight of SOD8 members of the current staff:
... The Electric Inspector funded by Engineerinq is located at
the MSC and managed by Operations. The Water-Gas
Wastewater (WGW) Inspectors, funded and managed by
Engineering. are located at the Civic Center.
6 An Engineering Designer, funded by Engineering to maintain
maps is located and managed by Operations. Sim~lar
assiqr~ents in the WGW utilities are located at the Civic
center.
CJllt:1D1: "

o
• Projects include design efforts by staff membe~s frem both
divisions, construction efforts fro~ both divisions ana
service connection efforts from both divisions. This is
true for any job no ~atter the size, from an u~derground
district or main replacement project of several thou£and
feet to a service chanqe.
The current organizational structure provides a direct manaqement
tie between Engineerin9 and Operations only throuqh the Director 1 s
office. Combining the divisions under one Assistant Director vill
provide closer direction and centralized coordination of
infrastructure planninq efforts. Staff review of other si&ilar
operations shows that many other public utilities operate under a
similar organization.
This orqanization chanqe will eliminate the A/D, Operations and th~
AID, Engineering and add an AID Engineerinq and Operations.
(Reference Chart 3) The new AID po~ition will have statf located
at the Municipal service Cente4 and the Civic Center. Two managers
at each location will report directly to this position" closer
management control between the two current divisions responsible
for the utilitie_s infrastructures will be strengthened with this
change. A professional enqi.neer ... ith strong management experience,
knowledqeable in distr-ibution system planning, construction and
operations is essential for this position.
B. Combine Resource Planning and Resource Conservation; Eliminate
Deputy Director and add AID utilities, ResourcQ Management
For several years these two sections have repcrted to the Director.
Evaluating the needs-matching worK of these twc sections results in
a logical, organizational pairing of these two groups working
together under one Assistant oirector~ (Reference Chart 4) The
future resources for Palo Alto will come from a variety of areas~
For electric ... this mixed resource base will include co-ge.; . .::~,:!tion,
renewables and demand side management (reduced energy demand by
customer choices of conservation measures and sel f-generating:
d.evices). New technologies, transmission interties and joint
action groups will also provide Palo Altc with the resources it
needs into the neKt century. Gas an~ Water supplies have similar
needs. currently, the two qroupG, Planning and conservation, work
on a daily basis developing the Integrated RasQurce Plans {IRP) and
Demand Side Manaqement (OSH, Programs to provide the long-range
resource ne.eds of Palo Alto. The importance of IRP's and following
through with the resultinq OZK targets is heightQned by the fact
tbat this is one majer condition for receiving the City's
allocation from Western Area Power Administration.
CJUl:1 D1: tC

c. Eliminate A/D operations and add Mana.ger of Utility Rates.
The Utiliti~s Department mu~t continue to be competitive. with
open access to gas pipelines, some larger customers a.l'e already
beinq offered better gas prices by marketers. similar challenges
could OCC1.lr 'With larger electric customers. Because the utili+...iea.
industry is undergoing major structural changes., the ratem;o.kinq
function is evolving into new and expanded roles. This increased
workload dictates a shift in Department resources directed to this
activity. The utilities must place more emphasis on servi~e and
rate schedule diversificati~n 'bypass, economic development,
bUsiness retention and retail wheelinq) alternatives that will meet
the customer's needs i!.nd keep the utilities financially sound.
Rate making, reserves and tinancial ~lanninq are e~sential to the
utility operation. This position will manage rate making
functions: make rate proposal pres-entations to t.he Utilities
Advisory Commission (UAC), Finar..ce cownittee and Council: and
direct the development of new rate structures and deta.iled cost of
service studies.
The new utility Advisory commission (UAC) was formed to focus on
long-range planning issues. As exte~al agency activities
increase., both in numbers and in sigr.ificance; as rates, reserv~s
and other regulation policies increase; and as customeLs have more
choices of energy alternatives in the future: UAC activities will
also increase. Staff support to ~oordinate the UAC activities is
8Gsential in the continued long-range planninq assignments. This
position -will work closely with the UAC, utilit",ies Director and
staff on agenda planning, ccuncil coordination and public and other
agency involvement.
A &anaqer supporting both the Director and the Assistant Director,
Adainistrative Services is needed to oversee the work -with the UAC.,
community relations, and rate.making activities# along with new
technologies .snd other changes that will maintain Palo Alto'e
competitiveness in the utilities business.
This new position will replace the current AjD# Operations
position. The position will report to the AID Administrative
Services with a direct aesignment to the Utilities Director on UAC
matters.. The person must be well orqanized with a strong knowledge
of utilities and rate c8siqn, and excel in people skills and in
oral and written communications ..
Schedule for organizational Changes
The challenqe is to develop an organizational plan that makes beth
ahort-term and long-term sense. Staff's objective is to develop a
long-range plan that meets all objectives with ~~e best interest of
the organization in mind. Since such a reorganization, if
implemented im:mediately~ could impact the existing staff, it is

o
necess~ry to develop an orderly transition plan. The transition
plan seeks to mirdmize short.-t.erm impacts ~l"'.d allo., sufficient time
and resources for staff to personally pf'epare tor the ultimate
actions.
The AID, Engineering Divisjon has been vacant since February 1993,
with the appoi~tmsnt of the Interim Director. No action was taken
to refill the AID, EngineeI'"ing tmtil th.is organizational plan was
completed. The Director continues to perform many of the duties of
this position, and it is essential that these added assignments be
reassiqned to the new AID Engineering and. Operations within 3.
reasonable time~ Approval of this organizational change ..... ·ill alloy
staff to fill this position -within three months. The ne ... AID
position is a key position in the infrastructure proqrams and the
continuing develop:nent of the utilities Mission Driven Budget.
Postponing: approva.l of this new AjD until the adoption of the 1994-
95 Budget would not allow this position to be filled for
approxb:aately ten months. Such a delay will continue to tax
existin9 management staff and not be in the overall interest of the
current direction of the Utilities Department. It is essential
that this reorganization occur as soon as possible.
The Manager of Utility Rates 'Will be filled after the new AID
Engineerirag and Operations position i.s filled and the existing A/D
Operations position is vacated. All proposed organiz.ational changes
will be implemented o'ter the next. eighteen months and will be fully
i.plem~~ted in FY ~995-96, following the departu~e of the current
Deputy Director~ The chanqes affect the following positions:

No additional positions are proposed to complete this plan. The
total salaries and benefits of the three nsw positions will result
in an annual savinqs of approximat91y $65,000; approximately half
of this amount will be realized with the immediate changes and the
balance in the 1995-96 budget.
