11:00 am
know what is budgeted. we can give you a list of the budgeted positions once we know what they are. we will know until the full board makes their actions in july. but that. the second thing that we know is what vacancies we have going into the card of the year. we also know that we have to keep a certain number of positions vacant. that is just a number. it is not itemize. we do go through and try to do the best guess of what we can delay in order so that we can keep attrition. the thing that we do not know is how long it will take if we submit a requisition to get it from the beginning to the end. this was an extraordinary year. of the 12 years where we have
11:01 am
had situations where you have somewhat -- actually submit a requisition, it is an excessively long. dhr resources have done quite a bit of work to establish lists so that it will not take so long. in telling you who is going to -- what position will be hired at any given time is really a crapshoot. we can do our best to give you that information. >> we can give you the information based on the positions we have intended to fill throughout the year. we can do that for next meeting. it has improved quite a bit. we are still short one cashier on the floor. can we do something about that?
11:02 am
>> that is part of the position that is intended to be filled. >> definitely. >> any other -- >> i just want to thank you for your contract negotiations. >> skip to that. i did not print out a new list for the calendar. nothing has changed. we have met with them several times. we are trying to make some decisions on a couple of items. it is rolling along and their legal is getting ready to mitt -- meet with our legal. they are anxious to get a
11:03 am
contract, which is good. >> one other question i wanted to ask -- earlier there seemed to be a flacco -- there seem to be a lack of what we could attract and assign numbers to. is there some modification down the line? an opportunity to ask this feature be added? to expand the ability of the system? through which we could also monitor and track nov? >> the current system allows for tracking numbers immediately. the clerk putting the number into the system will be the same. we do have the ability with a newer system to have online complaint entering with an automatic number coming out. you will have your number
11:04 am
automatically as you enter the complaint. >> thank you. >> the schematics system metope -- system? the president said you were strongly involved? >> we have -- a sorry -- we -- there are a few more people to train who have been extremely busy on their other duties. we have to free them up and train a few more people. we have the staff that we are hiring to be involved and we have been waiting to have the staff by an order to do the actual implementation. to be able to train everyone.
11:05 am
>> monitoring 1 and 5, will there be an old source? >> there is one on the fourth floor, for records. in the far future or the long future, the intent would be to have them on the other floors. those were the main floors where we had individuals coming in. >> even with all of the different departments, can we handle code information for housing, building, fire? dsm? cashiers? it will be a nightmare trying to get this to work. the dmv, you go to the dmv and it works perfectly.
11:06 am
people go and get their driver's license and registration. two things. this is going to be an entirely this facility. >> we have done extensive training for of all of the departments. the fourth floor is just over in records. the people were cautiously enthusiastic. you never know what will happen when you first put in a system. there is always a shakeout. the involvement of the staff has been super. and i hope that we prove you wrong and that it works. >> staff is only as good as the trainer. is there an expert putting this together?
11:07 am
>> yes, she worked extremely closely with steps -- with staff. there was also a week of training where a person came out and train people, giving them an overview. that occurred first. and then we had the on the spot people on the for getting trained and individual training in groups. there will be people available to help the public throughout the process. >> is there a time line on implementation >> some of it depends on -- implementation? >> some of it depends. in hiring the staff, we get the list and then we have to do a canvassing of the list and gauge the interest in coming here for
11:08 am
an interview. the posting takes two weeks. canvassing can take another week. we are talking about the beginning of september. >> what about training the staff that we have? >> we do not have sufficient staff on the first floor to get people to come and help out, to get the numbers and make sure that people get up to the floors. >> i think that the commission would like to have a date on when this will be up and running. two years from now. three years from now. we cannot blame city contracts. this is something we are running with ourselves. we should be able to implement it.
11:09 am
the president brought in and gave a demonstration, the president of the small but -- business of administration at the time, gave a demonstration on the phone system where you could call and to book your appointment time for inspection. what ever happened to that? >> it has been implemented for six months to eight months. >> i do not think so. >> the system has been implemented. >> then why is there not a bulletin going out so that the people know? >> there are brochures and it is on the web site. >> everything is on the met -- website? i would like to see a memo or an e-mail saying that this is up and running. no more questions. >> commissioners pedipalp thank
