Agenda Item

Discuss, consider, and take appropriate action on a policy exception for a new hire for the new SVU VAC position in the District Attorney’s Office.
 

Background

The District Attorney requests a policy exception on the newly created Special Victim Unit Victim Assistance Coordinator position (position number 2110) to successfully recruit an applicant with extensive experience as a Victim Assistance Coordinator to facilitate the integration of the Special Victim Unit with the felony trial teams. The addition of an experienced individual with a directly relevant skill set is critical and necessary for the most optimal transition and integration between the Special Victims Unit and the felony Trial Division. This exception request seeks to keep the position grade at B.24, but with a salary of $58,000 to match the applicant’s current pay.

As precedent for this policy exception, see this Court’s unanimous approval, without discussion, of Item 37 on the September 26, 2023 Agenda, granting a salary that is 33.5% above the B-Grade minimum for the Risk Claim’s Administrator position in the General Counsel’s Office.
