Title
Request City Council to adopt Resolution No.7765 Amending Resolution No. 7755 to Revise the Fiscal Year 2021-2022 Citywide Classification and Compensation Plan and to Establish the New Classifications of Director of Maintenance and Facilities and Deputy of Maintenance and Facilities, and to Revise Other Existing Classifications
Body
BACKGROUND
On July 27, 2021 the City Council adopted the Fiscal Year 2021-2022 Budget, including adoption of Resolution No. 7755 approving the Fiscal Year 2021-2022 Citywide Classification and Compensation Plan.
Included with the Fiscal Year 2021-2022 Budget was a reorganization of the Public Works Department into the Maintenance and Facilities Department. This reorganization includes two new job classifications:
• Maintenance and Facilities Director
• Deputy Maintenance and Facilities Director
Other changes to existing job classifications were identified and approved in the Fiscal Year 2021-2022 Budget, including:
• Reclassification of Finance Manager to a “Management Unrepresented, At Will” position titled Deputy Director of Finance (retaining salary at Range 6000)
• Renaming of Human Resources / Risk Manager to Deputy Director of Human Resources and Risk Management (retaining its classification as “Management Unrepresented, At Will” and salary at Range 6000)
ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION
Given the City Council’s approval of the Fiscal Year 2021-2022 Budget, Staff has prepared a Resolution to amend Resolution No. 7755 and to adopt the new job classifications as previously mentioned.
The Resolution amends Exhibit A of Resolution No. 7755, the salary tables, to update the salaries for Executive Management and Management Unrepresented employees that inadvertently reflected salary ranges from Fiscal Year 2019-2020, and did not reflect the salary increases granted by City Council through Resolution No. 7671 on September 22, 2020. The Fiscal Year 2021-2022 Budget did include the full cost of these salaries, therefore, there is no fiscal impact related to the update of the salary tables.
On September 22, 2020 the City Council also adopted Benefit Profiles for fringe benefits applicable to the Management Unrepresented and Executive Management employees. The proposed Resolution clarifies that these Benefit Profiles remain in full force and effect.
