DEPARTMENTAL RECOMMENDATION:
The Auditor-Controller's Office and the Department of Human Resources recommend that the Board of Supervisors adopt a resolution amending the List of Numbers and Classifications of Positions in the Auditor-Controller's Office to reclassify 1.0 FTE Limited-Term Accountant-Auditor I to 1.0 FTE Limited-Term Accountant-Auditor III.
