Fund 0 Give reasons how new duties arose (statutes enacted, Ordinances, Newly authorized programs, basis for increased workloads, etc.): Because of theworkload and low salary for thelicensed Land Surveyor position, the Department of Public Works has not been able to recruit a licensed Land Surveyor to fill the vacant position. In order to accelerate implementation of our. Capital Improvement Projects, participation in Federal Highway and Bridge Improvement Programs and Federal Aid Secondary Programs and participation in the Soil Conservation Service Watershed projects, the present Land Surveyor II is being assigned duties equivalent to a licensed Land Surveyor to prepare the necessary land acquisition parcel maps and metes and bounds.descriptions and to verify boundary determinations. 2. If reallocation, list only new duties. (Example: 1. Takes dictation.40o; 2. Keeps office accounts 30,, etc.):. See attached Position Description. 3. Give reasons why new duties at higher level are needed and cannot be assiclr;ed to classes at higher level or handled in other ways such as short term contracts, etc. (Use productivity measurements where pos.sible.): See attached. h I:}:117:1;:1:1]' "W' 4. Was reallocation or reclassification budgeted and if not, why were manpower needs not planned through budgetary process? This reallocation was not budgeted. Manpower needs were not planned through budgetary process because of strict directive from Budget Officer that no new positions will be approved in the budget. 5. List other rationale or pertinent statements and data: None 6. Attach: a. Old Table of Organization b. New Table of Organization with changes clearly visible c. Old class specification d. New class specification (See Position Description) Civil Service Note: The reallocation of subject position is justified in that there has been a substantial change in the duties and responsibilities. Director' Director' of Personnel IN 0 Hawaii County CounciPosition Information Form - continued 3. The new duties at a higher level is needed for continuity of productivity efficiency for preparation of the necessary land acquition parcel maps with metes and bounds descriptions and researching for the necessary land survey information from old Hawaiian Kuleanas and Grants, Land Commission Awards and Land Court maps. These duties could be contracted out to a private land surveying Consultant, however, the productivity efficiency for producing the maps and descriptions will not be accomplished as the Consultant will have to allot his time with his private practice to do our work and the fee for preparing such documents by a private Consultant will be very costly to the County. Presently Consulting services for checking and stamping of a licensed surveyor's seal on the survey documents prepared by the Land Surveyor II is estimated around $2,000 a year. It is estimated that approximately fifty (50) parcel maps with metes and bounds description will be prepared in the coming fiscal year. Based on an average -of $600 per survey document, it is estimated that Consulting services will be around $30,000, if it is let out for Consulting contract. r WI rn 'S z ;= w cJ N 7 ' O lil - R rz y L P (T � w 0 © V - R rz y L P (T � w w 7 of - G P (T � w w 101 C14 0 W M >� H 4 •� W iLi O Ll 4] C 6 L N N � v S 9Cp 2 � U C 2 V W G y � C14 0 W H >� H 4 •� O Cn N � v S 9Cp 2 � C 2 V U H N „ N O OC C OC4 VpKP .•• P �a r0 K F P C �U2 o� V [UU,U-UU +1 �2J F S W i U Q W O is 4 a •K mx� � c � W.uz co c� f5 — ti c 0 0 0 0 -.zz z n � n r �ziY o`. n u c o W H >� H NuOI� N � v S 9Cp 2 � W DEPARDIENT OF CIVIL SERVICE COUNTY OF W.1-74LII LAND SUIMIEYOR II Duties Surtmiary: Does limited professional work in field surveying and in office computations and plotting of field survey notes and land boundaries; traces final land maps and prepares simple metes and bounds descriptions; and performs other related duties as required.
