A RESOLUTION OF THE SEAL BEACH CITY COUNCIL
APPROVING AND AUTHORIZING THE AMENDMENT TO THE
CLASSIFICATION PLAN AND DESIGNATING THE PAY GRADE
AND STATUS OF THE PUBLIC WORKS SUPERINTENDENT,
SENIOR UTILITIES SUPERVISOR, AND CROSS-CONNECTION
CONTROL SPECIALIST POSITIONS
WHEREAS, the Public Works Department oversees a broad range of
responsibilities and specialized disciplines, requiring personnel with specific
expertise and professional licenses to carry out its duties effectively; and,
WHEREAS, in 2022, one (1) of the City's two (2) Maintenance Service Supervisor
positions was placed on hold, resulting in a redistribution of responsibilities
between the remaining Maintenance Services Supervisor and the Water Services
Supervisor; and,
WHEREAS, reclassifying one (1) of the City's Maintenance Services Supervisor
positions to Public Works Superintendent, and the Water Services Supervisor
position to Senior Utilities Supervisor, more accurately reflects the expanded
scope of responsibilities and the level of oversight currently being performed by
these roles; and,
WHEREAS, a key component of maintaining water quality and system integrity is
the implementation of the City's Cross-Connection Control Program, which is
mandated by the State Water Resources Control Board under Title 17 of the
California Code of Regulations and detailed in the Cross-Connection Control
Policy Handbook; and,
WHEREAS, given the technical expertise required and regulatory importance of
the Cross-Connection Control Program, it is essential that oversight be provided
by certified personnel; and,
WHEREAS, recent changs to the State Water Board regulations now require that
any Public Water System (PWS) with 3,000 or more service connections must at
least one certified Cross-Connection Control Specialist on staff; and,
WHEREAS, staff recommends reclassifying one (1) of the four (4) existing Water
Operator positions to Cross-Connection Control Specialist; and,
WHEREAS, the proposed classification of Public Works Superintendent will be
classified within Grade 28B of the Full-Time Salary Schedule, the Senior Utilities
Supervisor will be classified within Grade 28A of the Full-Time Salary Schedule,
and the Cross-Connection Control Specialist will be classified within Grade 17 of
the Full-Time Salary Schedule.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Seal Beach City Council does resolve, declare,
determine, and order as follows:
Section 1. The City Council hereby approves the amendment to the
Classification Plan to include the classifications of Public Works
Superintendent, Senior Utilities Supervisor, and Cross-Connection
Control Specialist, as more fully described in the staff report
accompanying this Resolution.
Section 2. The City Council hereby designates the pay grade and status of the
Public Works Superintendent position to align with Grade 28B of the
Full Time Salary Schedule, the Senior Utilities Supervisor position to
align with Grade 28A of the Full Time Salary Schedule, and the
Cross-Connection Control Specialist position to align with Grade 17
of the Full Time Salary Schedule.
Section 3. The Council authorizes the Interim City Manager, or designee, to
execute all necessary documents and take any actions required to
implement the reclassification of one of the Maintenance Services
Supervisor positions to Public Works Superintendent, the Water
Services Supervisor position to Senior Utilities Supervisor, and one
of the Water Operator positions to Cross-Connection Control
Specialist.
