Home My WebLink About1987-25 Amend Management PayWHEREAS, WHEREAS, it is estimated that wage adjustments with four of the City's labor unions will average approximately 3.5%; and it is the desire of the City to maintain its management pay plan at a level commensurate with its organized employees. NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Mayor and City council as follows: SECTION 1. The previous salary schedule in Resolution No. 86-27 shali be amended by 3.5% effective July 1, 1987 as set forth in Exhibits "A" and "B". SECTION 2. Certain positions shall be adjusted on January 1, 1988 pursuant to the performance evaluation plan as set forth in Resolution No. 82-08. The foregoing Resolution was READ and DULY ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the City Council of the City of Ashland on the day of ~ , 1987. Nan E. ~ranklin City Recorder SIGNED and APPROVED this day of Mayor May 29, 1987 Mayor & City Council Brian L. Almquist, City Administrator Salary Resolution for Supervisory and Confidential Employees Attached are the proposed salary schedules for 1987-88 for Supervisory and Confidential employees. As in the. past, Exhibit "A" reflects approximately the same 3.5% increase guaranteed to the unionized employees through collective bargaining. This year, I have also proposed Exhibit "B" to be effective on January 1, 1988 to provide a "catch-up" for certain salary scales, in order that our department head level positions remain competitive. This will be particularly important this year, with the retirements of our Finance Director and Director of Public Works. For comparative purposes, you may be interested in the following data from a recent ICMA survey of cities on the West Coast with a population of 10-25,000 as of July 1, 1986: 3rd % below Position Quartile Average Ashland averag~ Dir. of Finance 3856 3415 3291 (3.6) Dir. of Public Works 4234 3766 3598 (4.5) Dir. of Planning 3794 3290 3083 (6.3) Police Chief 4179 3677 3491 (5.0) Fire Chief 4025 3482 3036 (12.8) Personnel Dir. 3329 2869 2549 (11.1) Exhibit "B" adds one new salary step and deletes the first step, in order to keep our range near the average for these ~ositions. Whether the particular individual would actually move to that new step in January, will depend solely on their performance under the management evaluation pay plan adopted several years ago by the Council. Mayor & City Council May 29, 1987 Page Two In addition I have included a mid-year adjustment for a few middle management positions in order to maintain the pay differential with union employees. Fire Department Battalion Chiefs salaries may have to be adjusted later depending on the settlement with the Firefighters union. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the resolution implementing both Exhibits. The 1987-88 under this proposal is 4.33%.
