Report Title: FY2023 3rd Quarter FTE Position Reclassifications
Report Period: June 1, 2023 - August 31, 2023
Summary: Pursuant to Section 10 of the Annual Appropriation Bill and Budget Resolution, before any position is recommended for reclassification, the relevant Agency of the County must obtain prior approval of the Budget Director to validate available funding. Section 10 further requires this office to issue a report to the Board of Commissioners of approved position reclassifications on a quarterly basis for the preceding quarter.
Please note that 272 full-time equivalent positions were reclassified between June 1, 2023, and August 31, 2023. DBMS is not charged with reviewing the operational need behind the reclassification request. Rather, DBMS is currently only charged with ensuring that funding exists for such reclassifications.
Of the 272 FTE reclassifications approved:
• 24.3% (or 66 positions) were for CCH
• 44.4% (or 121 positions) were for the Clerk of the Circuit Court
• 24.6% (or 67 positions) were for the Office of the Chief Judge
• 6.7% (or 18 positions) were for the Public Defender’s Office
Taken together, the position reclasses noted above amount to a savings for the County of $206,407.31. During this period last fiscal year (i.e., June 1, 2022 - August 31, 2022), 537 positions were reclassified.
