NEMETH, BEND Mayor COUNTY CITY BUILDING SOUTH BEND, INDIANA 46601 DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN RESOURCES AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM Carl Ellison Director Jon R. Hunt Deputy Director M E M O R A N D U M TO: Members of the Common Council FROM: Carl Ellison �&d �rl✓'� SUBJECT: Supplemental Community Development Administration Appropriation DATE: November 22, 1977 219/284 -9335 Since becoming Community Development Director, I have observed significant improvement in the staff's capacity to undertake a variety of functions necessary to the operation of a "first class" Community Development Program. However, in spite of the marked increase in staff performance, it is apparent to me that the City's total Community Development planning and program development needs still exceed the capacity of available staff resources. Indeed, accelerating requests from neighborhood groups for information and technical assistance, coupled with substantially increased planning requirements mandated by the Housing and Community Development Act of 1977, and the emergence of new fund procurement oppor- tunities now available to the City, all conflow to demonstrate the extent to which planning needs outstrip existing planning capacity. Based on the above, the Community Development Program is requesting additional staff. Specifically, we request the following: Personnel Chief Planner Draftsman 2/3 Secretary III Fringe (18 %) Non - Personnel Printing /Publication TOTAL $ 7,750 (6 mos. salary) 4,833 (6 mos. salary) 5,624 18,207 3,278 $ 21,485 $ 700 $ 22,185 Memo Page 2 November 22, 1977 Currently, there exists four (4) Urban Planner positions with a salary maximum of $14,009. If this request is approved, two (2) of these planning positions will be downgraded to entry level positions with a maximum salary of $12,700. We believe an urgent need exists for the additional staff. Consequently, we ask your favorable consideration of this matter. jmr cc: Mayor Peter J. Nemeth Peter H. Mullen Jon R.
