6.2.A. - Page 2 In consideration that the City Council authorized the City Manager to make salary range adjustments in FY 2010/11 and in light of the precarious nature of the economy, the executive group has also agreed to freeze their salary ranges in the current fiscal year. This would mean only those not at the top of the range would be eligible for salary increases as deemed appropriate by the City Manager. In addition, the City Council's three direct reports, the City Manager, City Attorney and City Clerk, have agreed to salary freezes in the current fiscal year. The culmination of these efforts will provide salary savings for the current fiscal year and next. The three direct reports have also agreed to an increased PERS contribution in January of 2014. A summary of all recommended changes for the Executive Management/Confidential Summary of Benefits is contained in Exhibit A. Although salary ranges for executive managers will be frozen, adjustments to ranges of three classifications are necessary to conform to the July 2011 salary survey. On February 27, 2012 Council approved adjustments to the Executive Management Group salary ranges based on a market survey conducted by Human Resources staff. The market survey was conducted in accordance with the Executive Management compensation program but a few figures were transposed on the salary exhibit that was submitted by Human Resources to the City Council. Upon further review, staff determined that the salary range listed for the classifications of Assistant City Attorney, Library Director, and Parks, Recreation and Community Services Director were incorrectly listed and inconsistent with the results of the market survey. Specifically, the top of the range for Assistant City Attorney and Library Director were lower than the market survey results, and the top of the range for the Parks, Recreation, and Community Services Director was higher than the survey results. It is important to point out that no incumbent was paid outside of the CORRECT salary range. It was an administrative error that resulted in the salary exhibit being incorrect but actual salaries of those serving in those positions were within the correct ranges that resulted from the survey. The following changes are required to correct the salary exhibit: Current Range Proposed Range Classification (Per resolution 15172) (corrected based on market data) Assistant City Attorney $11,232 - $13,236 $11,232 - $13,641 Library Director $12,809 - $15,315 $12,809 - $15,783 Parks, Recreation, and $12,688 - $17,083 $12,688 - $16,453 Community Services Director Adjusting the above salary ranges will not result in any salary increases for the incumbents.
