Background and Discussion:

 

The County Library seeks authorization to establish temporary Library Technician II positions within HCPL to efficiently employ individuals during the summer season. This measure aims to optimize cost-effectiveness by directly compensating temporary personnel through the county rather than engaging a temporary agency.

 

Expected Impact:

 

Creating temporary positions within Harris County for summer employment at the library is anticipated to yield significant cost savings through a reduction in temporary agency expenses. By directly compensating temporary personnel through the county instead of utilizing a temporary agency, the library expects to realize increased efficiency and cost savings. The funding for the temporary positions will be drawn from Gift Funds (Fund 2203).

 

Alternative Options:

Continue using temporary agency personnel at increased cost.

 

Alignment with Goal(s):

_ Justice and Safety

_ Economic Opportunity

_ Housing

_ Public Health

_ Transportation

_ Flooding

_ Environment

X_ Governance and Customer Service
