The organizational location of the function has never been studied or specified, and its present location in the Office of the Mayor is the result of a Charter provision which locates such "homeless" functions in the Mayor' s Office. Several considerations are noted which indicate the need for organ- izational grouping of compatible and related functions, particularly human services. Investigation of five alternatives, including no change, leads to the recommendation of location in the Department of Community Services for the following major reasons: 1. More than 90� of the activities of the function are of the line, or direct service delivery, type located in the City' s four line service departments: Public Works, Community Services, Police, and Fire and Safety Services. 2. Manpower services are more related to the human services of the Department of Community Services than to any other City services. 3. This location simplifies both City government and the City ' s human services delivery system. Implementation involves only amendment of the Administrative Code. BACKGROUND Present location and nature of manpower function The manpower function is presently located in the Office of the Mayor by virtue of section 9. 01 of the City Charter which provides in part that "every office, agency, or function of City government not otherwise assigned by this charter or by ordinance shall be included in the office of the mayor . . . " . � � - �� �. � � ��f Q�8 ' This lacation is caused partly by the fact that new programs are often located in the extended Office of the Mayor until they can be better integrated into the City organization (examples: consumer affairs, grant-in-aid) , partly by the fact that the Federal Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CETA) legis- lation emphasizes chief executive program involvement, and partly by the fact that the location of the function has simply never been thoroughly considered. Although the function is commonly referred as "manpower planning" because of former Federal manpower program nomenclature (e.g. , CAMPS -- Cooperative Area Manpower Planning System) , less than l00 of its activities can be considered as "planning" as the term is generally used. Virtually all of its activities are administrative in nature, encompassing such things as subcontract preparation and implementation, grant management, program and fiscal monitoring, program coordination, and so on. New City Charter and Administrative Code When the new City Charter was implemented in 1972, all City functions were reviewed and, to a significant extent, reorganized into more effective staff and line function groupings. The best example of line function reorganization was the formation of the new Department of Community Services to encompass human services previously under the jurisdiction of at least three "old Charter" departments. CETA legislation This new Federal manpower revenue sharing program is designed to increase local flexibility in manpower programming and to achieve greater coordination 1) among manpower programs, and 2) among these programs and related human service programs. 1975 City Planning Work Program This work program, which has been thoroughly reviewed by the Mayor and City Council, includes the development of an integrated human service delivery system. PROBLEM The manpower function has never been studied to determine the best location for i� in the City organization -- even though the new City Charter, Federal CETA legislation, and the 1975 City Planning Work Program all indicate that such a study is necessary and appropriate. OBJECTIVE Determine the best location for the manpower function in the City organization. . - . : �ss��s DEFINITION OF CRITERIA There are four basic criteria to be used in evaluating alternatives: 1. Impact on organization. -- What kind of impact will a proposed location have on the City organization? -- To what degree will it disrupt existing operations? 2. Simplicity. -- Will the location make City government and City service delivery simpler or more complex? 3. Relation to other functions. -- Would the manpower function be compatible with the other functions with which it is grouped? -- Are the functions related from the point of view of services to City residents? -- Are the functions related from the point of view of kind of activities (line vs. staff, for example) ? 4. Cost. -- Would the proposed location effect any immediate cost increases or decreases? -- What long-range cost implications does the alter- native have? ALTERNATIVES There are five alternatives worthy of consideration: ?. No change. Formalize the function'�s present location by amending the Administrative Code to provide for an Office of Manpower Programs in the Office of the Mayor. II. Personnel Office. Locate the function as a new section in the Personnel Office. III. City Planning Office. Locate the function as a new section in the City Planning Office. IV. Department of Finance and Management Services. Locate the function as a new division in the Department of Finance and Management Services. V_ Department of Community Services. Locate the function as a new division in the Department of Community Services. DISCUSSION OF ALTERNATIVES Alternatives I, II and III are all unsatisfactory because they violate two cardinal principles of good management and sound organizational structure. They violate the principle of separating staff support .� . . ��s��� . _ . � �unctions from line service delivery functions, by locating the line � maripower function in a staff office (II, III) or envisioning this line function as a staff office (I) . In addition, the alternatives do not group like functions/services together. Alternative I does not even attempt to group the man- power function with others, while Alternative II groups it with the "internal" Personnel Office function concerned principally with the acquisition of personnel for the City organization. Alternative III groups it with a comprehensive planning function concerned with many other activities besides human services. Since none of these alternatives promise simplification or cost savings greater than do Alternatives IV or V, they are not viable alter- natives. Alternative IV would strain the "span of control" of the Director of the Department of Finance and Management Services by increasing the number of divisions in the department from seven to eight. More importantly, the manpower function has virtually no relation to any function in the department. Alternative IV is not a viable alternative. Alternative V might also be considered to strain the span of control of the Director of the Department of Community Services, increasing the number of divisions in the department from five to six� except for the fact that transfer of the Youth Service Bureau program to a county level (under the Community Corrections Act) is anticipated in 1976. This alternative satisfies the criteria of relation to other functions to a much greater extent than the other alternative by 1) grouping a line function with other line functions, and 2) locating a human service in the department where all other City human services are grouped. While this alternative simplifies City government to the same degree as do Alternatives II, III, and IV, it also simplifies the City' s human service delivery system. In addition, while it has the same short-range cost implications as the other alternatives (namely, none) , it can certainly be anticipated that further integrating and simplifying human service delivery will produce long-range savings through increased efficiency. For all these reasons, the impact of this alternative on the City organization, far from being disruptive, would be a beneficial one of increased coordination and productivity. RECOMMENDATION That Alternative V -- the creation of a new division of manpower programs in the Department of Community Services -- be implemented. IMPLEMENTATION The only implementation step necessary is appropriate amendment of the Administrative Code. No physical move of personnel or budget changes or transfers is suggested at this time. , � � � [�r�. l�o • I�GI3� � GITY OF SAINT PAITL et �p��i;a�; OFFIGE OF TEIE bI�YOli ��������� m�u _. LAWREN(7F: D. COHEN MAY°$ September 2, 1975 Council President David Hozza and Honorable Members of the City Council City of Saint Paul, Minnesota Dear President Hozza and Council Members: I am submitting for your consideration an ordinance amending the Administrative Code to provide for a Division of Manpower Programs in the Department of Community Services. The amendment would finally locate this "homeless" function-- the only one not mentioned in the Administrative Code--and would do so in a manner consistent with the actual activities of the manpower function and long-range city goals in the area of human services delivery. Enclosed with the proposed amendment is an analysis of this change prepared by the City Administrator and his staff at my request. This change, incidentally, enjoys the concurrence of all affected city administrative personnel, including the Manpower Director, and I hope and trust it will similarly meet with your approval. If you have any questions about the proposed amendment or the accompanying analysis, please contact me or Mr. Kelley at your convenience.
