ANALYSIS:
In FY 2012-13, the City Council took a series of recommended actions to ensure that the
City of Temple City was moving forward in implementing best practices in the area of
personnel management by revising current City policies, procedures and practices.
There were two phases in moving the organization towards best practices in the area of
personnel management. The first phase was to update and ensure all governing
documents (i.e., City Charter and City Code) and policies and procedures were
accurate and consistent. The second phase of this process was to adopt the City's
revised Personnel Rules and Regulations.
In implementing the first of the two phases, Section 800 of Article VIII of the Charter of the
City of Temple City (Charter) authorizes the City Council to establish by Ordinance a
personnel system for City employees. This Article further authorizes the City Council to
amend such a personnel system by Ordinance of the City Council, from time to time, as
may be required in the discretion of the City Council in the public interest.
Section 2-3A-3 of Chapter 3 of Article 2 of the Temple City Municipal Code provides that
the personnel system shall apply to all offices, positions and employments in the service
of the City with the exception of elective officers, City Manager, City Attorney, Members of
appointive boards, commissions, and committees, and persons engaged under contract
to supply expert professional or technical services for a definite period of time.
The City had, by adoption of resolutions for a number of years, exempted positions
from the personnel system. In order to ensure those exemptions were consistent with
the Municipal Code and the City Charter, it was recommended and approved to put the
exempted positions in the Code itself, by adoption of Ordinance. The exempted
positions were as follows:
o Elected Officer;
o City Manager;
o City Attorney;
o Members of appointive boards, commissions, and committees;

• Persons engaged under contract to supply expert professional or technical services
for a definite period of time;
• Director of Parks and Recreation;
• Director of Community Development;
• City Clerk;
• Economic Development Manager/Assistant to the City Manager;
• Administrative Services Director;
• Executive Assistant to the City Manager
• Public Safety Supervisor; and
• Planning Manager
During the FY 2016-17 City Budget deliberations, staff recommended the City Council
reclassify the Parks and Recreation Supervisor to Parks and Recreation Manager. In
keeping with the somewhat recent practice of exempting directors and managers from
the personnel system, adoption of Ordinance No. 16-1015 will codify the positions that
are exempt from the personnel rules and regulations.
CITY STRATEGIC GOALS:
By adopting Ordinance No. 16-1015, codifying the positions that are exempt for the
personnel rules and regulations furthers the City's Strategic Goal to promote Good
Governance.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The FY 2016-17 City Budget includes funding for this reclassified position.
