Ms, Adams asked Mr. Fernandez if his response to Council's request for a
copy oi'all Position Descriptions with the OPA required that lie had to
resubmit the list of open positions that Chairman Furfaro sent to the
Commission around September asking why there were so many open
positions. Mr. Fernandez said the request noted in his report was not the
one Ms. .Adarns was referring, to. This request was for the Of of the
prosecuting Attorney. Ms. Adams said in the meeting with the County

asked why that report took so long to be created, Mr. Fernandez had
explained to the Comity Council that the system DDS used was no longer
functioning, Mr. 1'ernaridez said that was correct. The system went down
over one year ago, and IT tried to retrieve it but they were not successful.
That system was inputted by hand and would now have to be recreated
which,there has not been tirric to do. Ms. Adams believed the Chair's
question was what was the Department doing to get the system fixed or a Oil
new one purchased, and she asked Mr. Fernandez what else they had been
able to do. Mr. Fernandez said they had been in discussion with IT and
Finance in trying to get an I IR system for years but they have not decided
what they want to do. Mr. Fernandez explained that this does riot fall under
DIIS's budget but it is part of inance's budget and does not know if it is in
then- upcoming budget. Currently, the report is being done manually and
every three months they have to reconcile everything. Mr. Fernandez
pointed out that Chair Furfaro was willing to give the Department 30 days
to generate the report instead of just 10 days because they were barely able
to get the report in on time with the system before it crashed. The
Department was barely able to generate the report on time and then to revert
to doing it manually, we have to drop everything and concentrate on getting
the report finished.
Chair Morita asked how many more hours it takes to input the information
by not having the system and using two personnel. Mr. Fernandez said he
Would not want to speculate at this point and Would have to ask Ms.
Schuierer how many more hours she is spending now doing the report, but it
is substanti y It ' -- -, get all more time.time to -ct the correct information. Motion to receive carried 5-0
