Councilmember/Authority Member/Commissioner Tam questioned why [Fire] command staff would be increased at the expense of street level line staff; inquired whether reclassifying the Deputy City Clerk position to Assistant City Clerk was being done to deal with Y rating, to which the Human Resources Director responded in the affirmative.

The Interim City Manager responded in the affirmative; stated most Deputy City Managers and Assistant City Managers have no line authority; the Deputy City Manager would assume line authority with respect to Finance and IT functions. Councilmember/Authority Member/Commissioner Tam inquired why a Division Chief position would be eliminated in order to create a Deputy Fire Chief classification. The Interim City Manager responded the Police Department's command structure is far stronger than the Fire Department; stated the Fire Department command staff needs to be strengthened.
