Agenda Item Text:
Adopt Resolution 11-1 appointing Karen Riggs, P.E., as the County Engineer.
Background:
Karen Riggs was appointed by the Board to be the Acting County Engineer when Benny Young, the former Community Development Director and County Engineer, resigned about six months ago. Carlos A. De La Torre, P.E., was hired on November 1 to be the Community Development Department Director and would like to make Ms. Riggs the permanent County Engineer.
Karen Riggs will still manage projects and offer direction and advice to the Floodplain section, advise and make decisions on road-related engineering issues, provide engineering and technical advice to the Community Development Department, and will continue to consult with the H&F Deputy Director on H&F issues. Karen will report to the Community Development Director.

Department's Next Steps (if approved):
If approved, staff may request that management consider a small salary increase because of the added responsibilities.
Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:
Carlos A. De La Torre, P.E. will need to be appointed as the County Engineer and Karen Riggs, P.E. will assume her former position as the Floodplain Engineer.
