B6 SUNDAY, AUGUST 12, lWO I.OS TIMI-S COLLEGES: Leader Complains CHESS By JACK PETERS INTERNATIONAL MASTER MOVING SALE! MUST LIQUIDATE! SAVE 50 60 I WP DOORS TRENCH DOOR UNITS SIMPSON GENTRY UNITS' "BALDWIN HARDWARE a Grand fcJM I KAlNCll 213 948-2443 94.15 Slauson Avenue, Pico Rivera abcdefgh Continued from Bl Mertes is especially irritated because he has not been able to fill six top central office jobs that were exempted from civil service regulations by the 1988 legislation. Mertes (who makes $101,000 a year) wants to pay his chief deputy $107,888, but the Department of Personnel Administration has approved only $86,533. "Cabinet secretaries the top jobs in state government pay only a little more than $101,000 a year," said David Tirapelle, the department director. "We've been very reluctant to pay community college officials more than state agency heads." Mertes has filled top systemwide jobs with administrators temporarily imported from local two-year campuses, who retain their local salaries, benefits and job security. They stay for a year or so, then return to their home campuses.

Harris said the Department of Finance has insisted that such "interjurisdictional exchanges" be terminated by the end of next year and that the jobs be filled on a permanent basis at salaries agreed to by the colleges and the Department of Personnel Administration. Harris also said the Department of Finance would be glad to approve a reorganization plan for the chancellor's office "if he would just give us a plan. We ask him for a plan and we get a set of We don't want options; we want to know what they plan to do, and they can't seem to make up their minds." Harris said he thought Mertes "had the best shot" of any of the people who have held the chancellor's job "of making the system work," because he has had a long career in two-year colleges and "he has a good reputation and a lot of credibility with people in the system." Harris conceded that the Legislature and state agencies like his pay much closer attention to the community college systemwide office than they do to the University of California or the California State University and that "must be frustrating" to Mertes. It is so frustrating that Mertes next year will ask California's new governor and the Legislature for a "fundamental structural change" that will grant more authority to the chancellor and the Board of Governors. Trying for freedom.
