Information

Request/Subject

Approval of changes to Gila County Policy No. BOS-HRS-625-Personnel Commission.

Background Information

Gila County is in the process of updating and converting all of the Rules in the Merit System Rules and Policies to Policies to be placed in the Countywide Policy Manual.

Rule No. 3 was updated and converted to Policy No. BOS-HRS-625-Personnel Commission by the Board of Supervisors on January 5, 2016.

Evaluation

In updating Policy No. BOS-HRS-625-Personnel Commission, an attempt was made to ensure the Commission had any and all information necessary to assist them in the deliberation of employee appeals, including all policies and statutes pertinent to Gila County employees. It was an error; however, to include any departments under the purview of the Gila County Superior Courts, as all appeals for Probation and Superior Court employees fall under the State of Arizona. Therefore, it would be appropriate to remove all references to any policies, procedures, and statutes for the Gila County Superior Court and Probation departments from this policy.

Conclusion

These revisions are not changing the intent of Policy No. BOS-HRS-625, but will reflect the correct County departments and elected offices that are subject to the oversight of the Personnel Commission.

Recommendation

Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors approve revised Gila County Policy No. BOS-HRS-625-Personnel Commission by eliminating the wording in Section IV. Procedures regarding the Adult and Juvenile Probation Officers Statutes and the Superior Court's Merit Rules and Policies.

Suggested Motion

Approval of changes to Gila County Policy No. BOS-HRS-625 - Personnel Commission regarding Adult and Juvenile Probation statutes and the Superior Court Merit Rules.
