6.B. - Page 2 of 45 hour, and effective January 1, 2020, increases the minimum wage to fifteen dollars ($15.00) per hour. The salary range for certain classifications needed to be adjusted to ensure the City complies with the required local minimum wage. Information Technoloev Division Classification Updates Periodically, the City reviews job classification descriptions for needed additions, deletions, or updates. To update job duties and responsibilities including changes to technology supported by the IT division, and to clearly distinguish between two distinct skillsets within the Analyst series of classifications within the IT division of the Administrative Services Department, it is recommended that the Information Technology Analyst 1/11 and Senior Information Technology Analyst job descriptions be replaced and split into separate job classifications. One classification defines the software development skillset (Software Development and Application Support Analyst 1/II, and Senior Software Development and Application Support Analyst) and the other defines the data management skillset (Endpoint and Infrastructure Information Technology Analyst 1/11, and Senior Endpoint and Infrastructure Information Technology Analyst). There are no proposed changes to salary. The City has reached tentative agreement with RCMEA on the amended job descriptions and salary ranges for these classifications. Adjustments to Salary Schedule to Reflect City Council Approved Compensation Adjustments for the City Attorney and City Manager On December 3, 2018, the City Council approved salary adjustments of 5% for the City Attorney and 5.86% for the City Manager, following an evaluation process which considered performance, internal salary alignment, and compensation for positions in similar cities in the region. The salary schedule has been updated to reflect these adjustments. Adjustments to Salary Schedule to Allow a Cost of Living Increase for the City Clerk Pursuant to amendments to the City Charter approved by Redwood City voters on November 6, 2018, the position of the City Clerk will now be reporting to the City Manager on a day to day basis rather than the City Council. Cost of living adjustments recently have been granted to all employee organizations which have completed the negotiations process to establish a new agreement, and are being considered by the remaining two employee organizations which are in bargaining now. In order for the City Manager to provide a cost of living adjustment to this classification, the salary schedule needs to be modified. FISCAL IMPACT Increasing the minimum wage to $15.00 per hour as required by this ordinance would have an estimated cost impact to the City of approximately $530,000 annually, including adjustments to wages for certain classifications, and a $30,000 annual contract for third party enforcement of the minimum wage ordinance. Estimated costs have been included in the Fiscal Year 2018-19 Adopted Budget. There is no fiscal impact for the proposed job description changes in the Information Technology division. The previously approved adjustments to the City Attorney and City Manager salaries will result in a total annual cost of $39,568. This amount includes salary, salary -driven benefits (such as pension contributions), and required payroll taxes. Providing a 3% COLA for the City Clerk will result in a total annual cost of $5,870.
