Sec. 4.145. Responsibility of Board of Civil Service Commissioners.
 
   (a)   Whenever one or more new positions are to be established, or whenever, because of any change in organization or method, a significant change in the duties or responsibilities of any existing position is to be made which requires the amendment of the classification plan, such revision and amendment of the classification plan shall be made in the manner as provided under Section 1003 of the Charter.
 
   (b)   Whenever the appointing authority proposes that a new position be created or that a significant change be made in the duties and responsibilities of an existing position, such appointing authority shall forthwith report the significant facts to the Board of Civil Service Commissioners in the manner prescribed by said Board. Thereupon, the General Manager of the Personnel Department shall make a study of the duties and responsibilities of any such position and of the qualifications required for filling the same, and of the relationship of such positions to other classes of positions in the classification plan, and shall report to said Board of Civil Service Commissioners the General Manager’s recommendations involving any amendment or change in the classification plan. Said Board of Civil Service Commissioners shall thereupon determine what changes, if any, in the classification plan will be required as a result of the proposal of such appointing authority, either by changing the title of any existing class, or by establishing a new class, or by dividing, combining, altering, or abolishing any existing class in the classification plan. Said Board of Civil Service Commissioners shall then transmit its findings and recommendations to the City Council and shall transmit a copy thereof concurrently to the Director of the Office of Administrative and Research Services.

Sec. 4.146. Proposals to Change Allocation and Reallocation of Positions.
 
   The General Manager of the Personnel Department, upon written request of any appointing authority or of any member, or upon the General Manager’s own initiative, after consultation with the department concerned, may recommend the allocation of any existing position to a different class in the classification plan, either because of a previous error in allocation, or because of a significant change in the duties and responsibilities, or because of the creation of a new class to which such position may more appropriately be allocated, or because of the abolishment or combination of any existing positions, or may recommend any change in the existing classes, necessary to maintain the classification plan in conformity with the provisions of Section 1003 of the Charter. The report and recommendation of said General Manager shall be submitted for action to the Board of Civil Service Commissioners which shall hold a public hearing thereon and shall determine what modifications or amendments, if any, should be made in the classification plan. Any meeting of said Board of Civil Service Commissioners shall constitute a public hearing for the purpose of amendment of the classification plan. No modification or amendment of the classification plan will be made unless the appointing authority of the department concerned is given opportunity to make such recommendations as the appointing authority may deem warranted. A report setting forth any amendments or modifications of the classification plan which the Board of Civil Service Commissioners proposes to make shall be transmitted to the City Council and a copy thereof shall be transmitted concurrently to the Director of the Office of Administrative and Research Services.

   (a)   The City Council, upon receipt of the reports and recommendations of the Board of Civil Service Commissioners and the Director of the Office of Administrative and Research Services, shall first determine whether any new positions shall be created, whether the duties of any existing positions shall be changed, whether any existing positions shall be eliminated, and whether any changes shall be made in salary schedules for any class or classes. After action by the Council in respect to any of the foregoing matters, the Classification Plan will forthwith be amended by dividing, combining, altering, or abolishing any class, by creating a new class, or by changing the title of any class in accordance with the action of the Board of Civil Service Commissioners, pursuant to Section 1003 of the Charter; provided, that no new class will be established unless the duties and responsibilities of positions in such class are found to be substantially different from the duties and responsibilities of any other existing class.
