Position Description Application Filing Deadline : July 8, 2024 Exam #: 24/14K50/6CJ The Department The Housing and Community Development (HCD) Department is composed of four Divisions, including Building Services, Planning Services, Permit Center, and Housing. The department provides reasonable and safe development, planning for future needs of the County, and helps protect natural resources. The Position The Chief of Planning exercises substantial, independent authority to oversee day-to-day operations of the Planning Division. Planning Division functions include reviewing and processing applications for development, preparing and implementing land use policy and regulations; providing information to the public; preparing and reviewing environmental documents pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, coordinating on code enforcement of land use regulations, managing records, and maintaining long-range planning documents including the General Plan, Local Coastal Program, and implementing ordinances. Planning provides staff support to the Planning Commission, Zoning Administrator, Inter-Agency Review, Airport Land Use Commission, Land Use Advisory Committees, Historic Committees, and coordinates responses from County land use departments/agencies on land use programs and proposals by other jurisdictions. The Chief of Planning reports to the Director of Housing and Community Development and may serve as a designee of the Director. This role involves representing the Division to the public, other county departments, the Board of Supervisors, the Planning Commission, public officials, developers, businesses, and others. The Chief of Planning will join the department of Housing and Community Development during a time of exciting and challenging transition as retirements and attrition have resulted in several new executives on the leadership team. As the Chief of Planning is responsible for implementing divisional administrative and operational policies, procedures, and standards; formulating general policies to ensure compliance with federal, state, and county codes, ordinances, and regulation; as well as developing the business plan that carry out the mission of the Planning unit; within this environment, there is a great opportunity to facilitate, coordinate, and enhance communications and work systems throughout the division. The key priority is to improve the efficiency of operations and turnaround time for the development review and approval process, and in doing so, to empower staff to further develop and expand their capabilities in their respective roles. Challenges and immediate priorities facing this role include completion of the County’s Housing Element 6th Cycle Update, overseeing multiple efforts to updates to County Codes based on the 2010 General Plan and recent changes in state law, and the need to balance process efficiencies for current planning efforts that reduce permit times while retaining the County’s track record of natural resource preservation and improving public opinion. The Eligible List established by this recruitment process may be used county-wide to fill current and future vacancies on a regular full-time, part-time, or temporary basis. Examples of Duties THE IDEAL CANDIDATE The ideal candidate for this position will have leadership, management, and administrative experience in regional planning, environmental protection activities, and land use permitting processing, that encompass a high level of technical ability with excellent project management skills, and keen insight and vision for streamlining essential permitting processes and other departmental processes. A proactive and progressive leadership mentoring style is critical for successfully facilitating a greater level of service delivery and accountability; and for continuing to foster an environment where knowledge, confidence levels, and communication skills are further developed among the staff; and where collaboration, innovation, and efficiency thrive. The ability to build strong relationships and a culture based on responsive and timely customer service will allow the department to establish higher levels of credibility in its work product, and ongoing success in accomplishing its mission. The Planning Chief is also expected to have excellent interpersonal and presentation skills to complement their technical knowledge, especially in representing the division and in coordinating planning activities and programs with other County departments, local, state, and federal jurisdictions, and other agencies with the aim of promoting a uniform and comprehensive approach. Land use and planning expertise with extensive knowledge of the state regulatory environment, including CEQA and the Subdivision Map Act is a critical need.
