TRANSPARENCY:
In approving the delegations for the Executive Director, the Commission requested that staff ensure
transparency as it is paramount moving forward. As a result, staff will make approvals visible to the public in
two ways. First, these types of approvals will be made visible in public Commission meetings via monthly
reporting similar to this one. This approval is both timed and designed to be visible in a similar manner to the
monthly Claims and Obligations reporting. Second, staff will publish these delegations to the web by publishing
them in a PeopleSoft formatted report on the Port website in the same manner that all procurements, contracts,
and other opportunities are made available to public communities.
BACKGROUND:
On January 24, 2023, the Commission approved and adopted Resolution No. 3810 that repealed related prior
resolutions and increased the previously delegated Commission authority to the Executive Director and
provided clarity in process directives to port staff. The approval made the Delegation of Responsibility and
Authority to the Executive Director (DORA) effective on April 3, 2023, and the approvals made by the Executive
Director for the month of April are identified in the table above.
The foundation for Resolution No. 3810 included significant data analysis, employee surveys, and internal audit
recommendation. Resolution No. 3810 also aligns with the Port Century Agenda in that it helps make the Port
a more effective public agency. Many considerations and checks and balances have been built into the
associated processes of Executive Director approvals including a high bar of transparency.
Following significant analysis and multiple Commission reviews, the Commission approved the DORA on January
24, 2023. That reporting memo is available for review on the Port website under the January 24, 2023,
Commission public meeting, and it provides detailed reasoning and explanation of Resolution No. 3810.
