Reso. No. 89-26, Item 5.6, Adopted 10/06/2026 Page of
the City Council has adopted a Salary & Benefit Plan pursuant to the Personnel System
Rules; and
the City Council adopted Resolution No. 96-23 establishing increases to salary ranges
effective July 1, 2026; and
on June 16, 2026, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 61-26, establishing a Salary
Plan for Management Positions Exempt from Competitive Service effective July 1, 2026, which reflected a
1.7% cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) for Fiscal Year 2026-27; and
during Item 9 of the August 18, 2026 meeting, the City Council requested that Staff bring
back an informational report on the most recent annual cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) received by City
employees, in light of it being low relative to the Consumer Price Index change from late 2025 through
spring 2026; and
on September 1, 2026, the City Council received a report that provided contextual
information about Dublin’s Employee Process that governs COLAs, described the City’s COLA
methodology, and for reference, discussed the annual escalators provided in the City’s agreement with
external parties, and how other Bay Area agencies handle compensation increases; and
the February 2026 CPI-W reading used to calculate the Fiscal Year 2026-27 COLA was
notably lower than the reading for the surrounding months, suggesting it was an outlier rather than a
reflection of a sustained change in the cost of living; and
during Closed Session on September 15, 2026, the City Council directed Staff to
prepare an additional 1.5% COLA for all City employees, retroactive to July 1, 2026; and
under her employment agreement, the City Manager’s annual COLA is tied directly to
the February CPI reading, and implementation of her 1.7% COLA for Fiscal Year 2026-27 was deferred
pending completion of her Fiscal Year 2025-26 performance evaluation and associated performance-
based salary adjustment; and
the City Manager’s Fiscal Year 2025-26 performance evaluation and performance-
based salary adjustment has been completed, and her 1.7% COLA may now be applied, retroactive to July
1, 2026.
that the City Council of the City of Dublin hereby amends the
Salary Plan for Management Positions Exempt from Competitive Service to establish the following salary
provisions.
