THE CITY OF 11 inIIII ~l••f "` CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT pL£ASANTON: September 18, 2018 Human Resources TITLE: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE PROPOSED PAY SCHEDULE AND AMENDING THE MANAGEMENT AND CONFIDENTIAL EMPLOYEE PERFORMANCE COMPENSATION PLAN SUMMARY Compensation for management and confidential employees is discussed with Council each fiscal year. As management and confidential employees are not covered under a collective bargaining agreement, recommendations for adjustments are brought to Council for consideration. The California Code of Regulations provision implementing the California Public Employees' Retirement Law requires adoption by a member agency's governing body of pay schedules of its employees. City Council approval of the pay schedules for this particular group plus ratification of amendments to the Management Compensation Plan providing additional City contributions into a deferred compensation plan are being recommended by staff. RECOMMENDATION Adopt a resolution approving a 3 percent increase to the Management and Confidential control points, allowing for a performance-based salary increase pool of no more than $460,000 and ratifying amendments of the provisions of the Management and Confidential Compensation Plan to include an additional City contribution of .5 percent of base wages into a deferred compensation plan. FINANCIAL STATEMENT The financial impact as a result of the implementation of the recommended 3 percent increase, performance-based salary pool, and increased deferred compensation contribution is a cost of approximately $520,000 over a 12-month period with $433,000 in fiscal year 2018/2019. As the Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department is shared by the two cities, approximately $55,000 of the annual cost will be paid by the City of Livermore as part of the cost sharing formula.
