Description/Analysis

IssueDetail

Issue Detail: The salary range for the City Treasurer is being increased by five percent (5%). The new salary range for the classification will be set at a new maximum hourly rate of $137.856476.

 

The California Code of Regulations requires that the City Council adopt the City’s Salary Schedule 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 changes to the City’s Salary Schedule are presented in two versions, a red-lined version of changes to the Salary Schedule as Attachment 2, and a clean copy of the City’s Salary Schedule is included as Exhibit A to the Resolution.

 

The City Treasurer and the Director of Public Safety Accountability will have their salaries increased by five percent (5%).

Government Code 54953 requires that prior to taking final action, the legislative body must orally report a summary of the recommendation for final action on salaries, salary schedules, or compensation paid in the form of fringe benefits of a local agency executive during the open meeting in which the final action is to be taken. Local agency executives are defined in Government Code section 3511.1 (d) as “(d) Local agency executive means any person employed by a local agency who is not subject to the Meyers-Milias-Brown Act (Chapter 10 (commencing with Section 3500)).” The City Treasurer and Director of Public Safety Accountability meet the local agency executive definition.
