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 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 recently established a new classification of Office of Public Safety and Accountability Inspector General, commonly referred to as “Inspector General.” The Employer-Employee Relations Policy (EERP) has been revised to reflect the establishment of this new classification. The specific changes to the EERP are presented in two versions, a red-lined version of text changes to the EERP is included as Attachment 3, and a clean copy of the revised EERP for Council approval is included as Exhibit B 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.
