BACKGROUND:
The Budget item on the June 6, 2023 Council agenda included salary schedules for all
Represented, Confidential, Management, and Temporary employees. Unfortunately, the
posted agenda inadvertently omitted paragraph “d” of the Subject and Recommendation of the
PAGE 2 OF 3 SUBJECT: Salary Schedules DATE: June 7, 2023
BACKGROUND (continued):
report. Because the Salary Schedules were not listed on the posted agenda, Council could not
consider them at the meeting.
DISCUSSION:
The Adopted Budget includes a 3% cost of living increase for Fiscal Year 2023/24 in the
Memoranda of Understanding with all bargaining units that was approved by Council last year.
All unrepresented staff would receive the same cost of living increase. In addition,
unrepresented Management did not receive a 5% market increase last summer as did all other
employees. The Adopted Budget includes a 3% market increase for Management classifications
retroactive to April 2023.
CONCLUSION:
Staff recommends approval of adoption of the Salary Schedules for Management effective April
2, 2023, and Salary Schedules for AFSCME, TEA, POA, Confidential, Management and
Temporary/Hourly Classifications effective July 9, 2023.
COORDINATION:
The preparation of the salary schedules involved the Town Manager’s Office, and the Human
Resources and Finance Departments.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact is presented in summary form in the Financial Summaries chapter of the
Proposed Operating and Capital Budget for FY 2023/24, which was adopted by Town Council on
June 6, 2023.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT:
This is not a project defined under CEQA, and no further action is required.
