These compensation adjustments require the salary range to be increased for the City Auditor.
The California Code of Regulations requires that the City Council adopt the City’s salary schedules at a public meeting (2 CCR § 570.5). This obligation arises whenever salary ranges are changed, to ensure that salary rates are transparent and publicly available. These publicly adopted rates are used by California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS) to determine the appropriate compensation earnable for each City employee when calculating their pension benefit.
The specific change to the City’s Salary Schedule is presented in two versions, a red-lined version showing the change to the Salary Schedule as Attachment 1, and a clean copy of the City’s complete Salary Schedule is included as Exhibit A to the Resolution.
Policy Considerations: Approval of this action by the City Council is consistent with the City’s legal obligation under the CalPERS law.
Economic Impacts: None
Environmental Considerations: This report concerns administrative activities that will not have a significant effect on the environment and that do not constitute a “project” as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Sections 15061(b)(3) and 15378(b)(2).
Sustainability: Not applicable
Commission/Committee Action: Not applicable
Rationale for Recommendation: Approval of this action will establish compliance with the California Code of Regulations §570.5.
Financial Considerations: The impact of the salary increases authorized are included in the City’s current budget.
