Reasoning: Current Treasury Team Lead is transferring to Community Development.  This is allowing the Finance Department to restructure the role to take on aspects originally part of the position as well as transition other duties that belong within this area of Finance.  Adding the additional oversight and regular review of all revenue accounts throughout the different departments of the City is a vital aspect for this role.  Maintaining segregation of duties and dual control is also necessary in many aspects of the Treasury area, this allows the review functionality to reside in the area it fits and removes possible segregation issues across the department.   There is a new general billing process as well as a new Tyler Cashiering module roll out for the Treasury area that this position will need to oversee and assist in rolling out to other departments as well.  The previous Accounting Manager was a pay grade 26, the reinstated position will be a 24 as some of the larger scale duties such as binding and CIP will remain with the Sr. Accounting Manager position.

The job market is currently flush with job openings and not flush with qualified candidates.  The movement of the Team Lead position to an Accounting Manager position will boost the appeal of the position to hopefully pull a better candidate pool for interviews and for an offer to be made to in a timelier manner.
