Comm. Minutes--September 19, 1989 338 5. SOCIAL SERVICES, Child Welfare Coordinator positions At the last Commission meeting, Mrs. Toussaint was asked to make a recommendation on the request for reclassification of two Social Services Child Welfare Coordinator positions, which are a result of reorganization in the Family Services unit. Mrs. Toussaint stated that it is her understanding that the Commission does not need to take action on a reclassification un]ess there is a monetary change. Rainer Lobitz, Supervisor of Family Services, stated that traditionally, reclassifications have been approved by the Social Service Board and not brought to the Commission unless there was a change in salaries or budgetary changes. These two positions have not been sent to the State Central Personnel, pending the Commission's approva'l, because it was his understanding at this point that Social Services wanted Commission approval. Hr. Lobitz stated that reclassifications of the two Child Welfare Coordinator positions would have no financial impact since their salaries fall within the minimum of anticipated reclassifications. Mr. Shannon asked how a change in classification can be made with no financial impact, and Hr. Lobitz stated that there would be no financial impact dn the year that the reclassification takes place, but it would have to be included and reviewed in the next year's budget.
