Honorable Mayo r~al1dqityOouncil <br />From Council Members Hartnett and Ira <br /> <br /> <br />6.2A <br />Page 1 <br /> <br />REPORT <br /> <br />April 3, 2006 <br /> <br />Subject <br />City Clerk Compensation Adjustment <br /> <br />Recommendation <br />Adjust the salary of the position of City Clerk <br /> <br />Background <br />The City Clerk's anniversary for compensation adjustment is April of each year. As was the <br />case with other Council appointed positions, incumbents suspended salary increases for <br />multiple years. After going a number of years without an increase and falling significantly <br />behind the median salary ofthe nine (9) comparator agencies, we are recommending that <br />the City Clerk's base salary be increased by 9.10%, If approved, the City Clerk's base <br />monthly salary will increase from $8,249 to $9,000 per month effective April 11, 2005. <br /> <br />The City Clerk's anniversary date of employment is March 29th of each year. The last <br />compensation adjustment for the City Clerk occurred in April of 2002. The City Council did <br />not conduct an evaluation in March of 2005 when a commensurate salary adjustment <br />based on performance would have been granted. In January of 2006, the City Council did <br />conduct the performance evaluation which supports this salary adjustment retroactive to <br />April of 2005. <br /> <br />Alternative <br />. Not grant a salary increase at this time; <br />. Grant a lower salary increase at this time; <br />. Grant a higher salary increase at this time. <br /> <br />The first two alternatives may increase the likelihood of the incumbent relinquishing her <br />position with the City. Recruiting and retaining a City Clerk with comparable skills and <br />knowledge would be both costly and unlikely. <br /> <br />Fiscal Impact <br /> <br /> <br />nd salary related benefit costs is $9,828 per fiscal year. <br /> <br />~~ <br />( ",<" <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Jeff Ira <br />Council Member <br />Personnel Subcommittee Member <br /> <br />Jim rtnett <br />Council Member <br />Personnel Subcommittee Member <br /> <br />Attachment <br />Resolution Authorizing Salary Increase <br /> <br />2005 City Clerk Salary Adjustment <br />
