BOARD MEETING DATE:  December  5, 2017
CATEGORY:  Consent - General Government-12.

SUBJECT:

Salary Resolution amending the Shasta County Salary Schedule for Confidential classifications in County service.

Supervisorial District No. :  All

DEPARTMENT CONTACT:  Angela Davis, Director of Support Services, 530-225-5515

STAFF REPORT APPROVED BY:  Angela Davis, Director of Support Services

RECOMMENDATION

Adopt a Salary Resolution which: (1) Repeals Salary Resolution No. 1488 adopted by the Board of Supervisors on June 21, 2016; and (2) amends the effective date of the wage adjustment for all Confidential classifications from June 24, 2018 to April 29, 2018.

SUMMARY

N/A

DISCUSSION

It is recommended that the Board adopt a salary resolution for Confidential classifications  which amends the effective date for the previously adopted 2018 wage increase only (adopted on June 21, 2016, Salary Resolution NO. 1488) from June 24, 2018 to April 29, 2018.  The adjustment to the 2018 wage increase effective date will maintain the required salary range distribution of the Confidential classifications.  The 2016 and 2017 wage increases have been implemented and will not be modified.  This action requires Salary Resolution NO. 1488 adopted by the Board of Supervisors on June 21, 2016 to be repealed.

The recommended salary resolution specifies wage increases as follows: (1) Effective the pay period beginning with June 26, 2016, specified employee salaries will be increased by three percent (3%); (2) effective the pay period beginning with June 25, 2017, specified employee salaries will be increased by three percent (3%); and (3) effective the pay period beginning with April 29, 2018, specified employee salaries will be increased by two percent (2%).

ALTERNATIVES

The Board may choose to not adopt the salary resolution. This is not recommended as the proposed recommendation will maintain the required salary range distribution of the Confidential classifications. 

OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT

This recommendation has been reviewed by the County Administrative Office.

FINANCING

The impacted departments will budget the expense in their respective budgets. There is no additional General Fund impact with approval of this recommendation.
