New Budgeted Positions

Seven new full-time positions have been added as part of the City’s FY25 Budget. One of the new positions is a full-time Teen Librarian. The library serves as a welcoming space for youth and each day the library sees dozens of teen visitors who may be on their own in the evenings. The Teen Librarian will be stationed at the Valente Branch and will work to create activities and programs that are developmentally enriching. They will also work to develop relationships with teens at the Branch.

Other positions include:

• Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)
• Program Manager (Finance/IT)
• ERP Developer (Finance/IT)
• Special Project Manager (Human Resources)
• Business Process Analyst (Human Resources)
• Records and Archives Manager (Clerk)
• Custodian (Public Works)

Aside from these new positions, there were several updates to City’s organizational and reporting structure in February 2024. In response to the growing importance and cross-functional nature of the City’s work on housing, climate, and transportation, a Chief Climate Officer role was created in FY24 and they will lead the new Sustainability Office, encompassing environmental planning staff from CDD’s Environmental and Transportation Planning Division. This reflects both the success of our sustainability work over the last years and the need for dedicated leadership to address the urgency and scale of the work ahead of us. Additionally, the Housing Division was elevated to a department recognizing the significant investments and growth in work regarding affordable housing.
