Your Committee on Finance is aware that the reallocation of the
27 positions in the Elderly Activities Division, Department of Parks
& Recreation, is the result of a comprehensive review of all exempt
positions in the division .
Your committee is further aware that in the case of the 23 Community
Services Aid positions, an entirely new class structure has been
developed . Some positions will be moved laterally into the new
classes while others will be reallocated upwards . Funds are
available in the current Salary & Wages account for these
reallocations .
Your committee has been advised that all positions are exempt from
Civil Service regulations and are therefore subject to the approval
of the Council .
Your committee heard an explanation by the Acting Director of
Personnel that there was a study to determine the feasibility of
converting the non-exempt positions to civil service . As a result of
the study, the recommendation was made to keep these positions exempt
at this time but continue to use civil service classifications .
Conversion to civil service status do not require any approval by the
Council . The State law authorizes the Director of Personnel to
convert those positions that are no longer temporary or experimental
in nature.
Your committee was informed that the Department of Civil Service is
currently converting positions from exempt to civil service. These
conversions take time as applicants need to be qualified.
It was suggested to the Acting Director of Personnel that the Council
be kept informed when the conversions do take place so their effects
on the budget can be evaluated .
It was further pointed out that in anticipation of some conversions
being made in the coming fiscal year , the additional costs have been
included in the budget proposal .
Pursuant to Section 3-14 , Hawaii County Charter , interim amendments
to the Pay Plan may be made by resolution .
