Agenda 04/13/2010 Item #16G 1 Agenda Item No. 16G1 April 13, 2010 Page 1 of 10 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation that the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) and the Board of County Commissioners acting as the Bayshore Gateway Triangle Community Redevelopment Agency Board (CRA) approve an amendment to the service contract of the Bayshore Gateway Triangle CRA Executive Director and appoint David Jackson to the new position of Executive Director of Business and Economic Development OBJECTIVE: To obtain authorization from the CRA and BCC to approve the second amendment to the service contract for the Bayshore Gateway Triangle CRA Executive Director appointing David Jackson to the position of Executive Director for Business and Economic Development. CONSIDERATION: As previously discussed with the Board at the March 11,2010 Strategic Planning Workshop, the County Manager proposes to bring additional governmental focus on the County's business and economic development programs and processes by the creation and appointment of an Executive Director for Business and Economic Development. Pursuant to an action taken by the CRA Board at its meeting March 22, 2005, David L. Jackson was selected to be the Executive Director of the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Area. On June 26, 2007, the contract was amended to extend the length of term to September 20 II and modified the severance terms. Formal discussions with Mr. Jackson have revealed that his assumption of additional duties in the area of economic development is acceptable, with CRA Board approval. A CRNBCC agreed contract modification would allow him to split his work week between the CRA and County Manager, as needed, to achieve all goals and objectives of the respective programs. The position will be a senior level direct report to the County Manager. FISCAL IMPACT: Mr. Jackson's current annual salary is $124,927. No change in annual salary is requested at this time. Base salary funding would be split evenly between the CRA and the General Fund. For FY 20 II, fully burdened salary expense for the Bayshore CRA Executive Director will be shown within the CRA Trust Fund (187) and the General Fund economic development cost center will contain an interdepartmental payment for service appropriation in the amount of $65,000 reflecting Mr. Jackson's Corporate Economic Development duties. These dollars will be deposited into the CRA trust fund during the fiscal year. Since this recommended action will commence during FY 20 I 0, a budget amendment instituting the change will be necessary essentially providing for reimbursement dollars from the General Fund economic development cost center to the Bayshore CRA Trust fund (187). An existing County vehicle will be made available for business related travel requirements of the position, and a nominal expense budget for associated operating expenses will be budgeted directly within the General Fund.
