Merit Board of Appeals July 17, 2013 <br /> Mr. De Lima thought that anyone who is working in the County would be able to <br /> apply. It's his intention not to limit any employee and to be as inclusive of the <br /> total employment pool. <br /> Mr. Takahashi stated that the announcement will not limit any applicant. <br /> Mr. De Lima expressed his concern regarding the applicant's level of commitment <br /> to the position as he wouldn't want someone taking the position for only one year. <br /> Mr. Kuewa asked Mr. Takahashi what two particular areas of the position would <br /> be more viable for a candidate. <br /> Mr. Takahashi replied that labor relations/collective bargaining is a must as the <br /> Director represents the Mayor. His task is to represent the Mayor in collective <br /> bargaining and the implementation and/or administration of the contracts that they <br /> negotiate. You need to have knowledge of all areas—classification, recruitment, <br /> employee relations as far as benefits and laws, as required. <br /> It was noted for the record that Deputy Director Sharon Toriano will serve as the <br /> Acting Director following Mr. Takahashi's retirement. <br /> SCHEDULE NEXT The Chair directed the Board to proceed to the next order of business, Schedule <br /> MEETING DATE Next Meeting Date. <br /> (Item 9): <br /> The next meeting will held on Wednesday, August 21St, at 11:30 a.m. (location to be <br /> determined). <br /> ADJOURNMENT There being no other business, at 11:55 a.m., Chair Rowe declared the meeting <br /> (Item 10): adjourned. <br /> Respectfully submitted, <br /> Ronald K.
