SUBJECT:
title
Consideration of DRAFT Resolution 2016-73, A Resolution to Revise the Organizational Charts within the Building & Neighborhood Services and Information Technology Departments. (10/25/16 WS)

Purpose
The purpose of this memo is to provide information to the Franklin Board of Mayor and Aldermen (BOMA) concerning a request to amend the organizational charts of two departments to include three additional personnel.

The final position, one (1) position will be in Information Technology at the cost of $29,338 for one-half year. This position is for a GPS/GIS Technician, originally asked for as a Program Enhancement Request during the FY 2017 Budget Process. This position is necessary for the City's staffing of the Tennessee One-Call System, which we are legally required to provide effective January 1, 2017.
A budget amendment, Ordinance 2016-41 contains the $165,775 for the addition of three (3) personnel. They will be offset by increases in property tax revenues, building permit revenues and a transfer from Water and Wastewater Funds.
