DISCUSSION
The Personnel Services Department recently completed an analysis of the
duties and responsibilities of the Jail Administrator position. Over the
last decade, the size and scope of the Santa Ana Jail Facility has increased
significantly. The facility currently houses both pre-arraignment and long-
term arrestees, has a budget of $11.5 million, and receives contract revenue
of over $12 million. This has resulted in an increase in the level of
responsibility and authority assigned to the Jail Administrator. However,
the compensation for this job classification has not changed since the
Police Department created the classification in 1992. When first
established, the new Jail Administrator was charged with the hiring and
training of our first Detention Officers and the construction of the City's
temporary holding facility. The facility shortly thereafter grew to a
temporary 96-bed jail staffed by slightly more than a dozen employees. While
continuing to manage the operation of the temporary facility, the Jail
Administrator supervised the construction of the new facility and
coordinated the staffing, procurement and transition planning. Today, the
permanent facility holds 480 beds and is staffed by over 125 employees. The
Police Chief now requests a 15% equity adjustment to compensate the
incumbent properly when compared with other mid-management positions with
equivalent scope and level of responsibility.
