I'INANC7AL STATEXENT:
Sufficient funds have been inoluded in the 1993-94
Budget in acoordanoe with city counoil direotion
on Deoember 13, 1993.
DESCR7PTION: 7n June of 1993, as part of the Adopted I'isoal
Year 1993-9. Budget, the counoil froze all employee merit salary
adjustments pending the outoome of the State Budget and the November
eleotion.
At its meeting of Deoember 13, 1993, the city Council adjusted the 1993-9.
Budget to include $40,135 in the budget for merit salary adjustments for
~isoal Year 1993-94. At the time of the city Counoil aotion, the city
Manager indicated some uncertainty as to how those merit salary adjustments
would he implemented, given that approximately half the employees of the
city had already been evaluated during the first part of the ~iscal Year.
The city Manager further indicated that he would report baok to the city
Counoil regarding the proposed implementation of the merit salary
adjustments at a future Council meeting.
Based upon a review by the city Attorney of the law as well as the City's
current personnel rules, the City Attorney has determined that existing law
would allow for the city to grant a retroaotive merit salary adjustment to
those employees whose anniversary dates fell during the periOd from July 1,
1993 through Deoember 13, 1993, when the city Counoil lifted the freeze on
merit salary adjustments imposed by the city Budget. This could be done
within the provisions of the existing Personnel Rules, and within the
dollar amount allooated to the 1993-~4 Budget on Deoember 13, 1993.
Once again, these adjustments would be based on the content of the most
recent performanoe evaluation and performanoe evaluations yet to he done
tor those employees that have anniversary dates between now and the end of
the Fiscal Year.
7f the city council wishes to provide the Staff with direction other than
that which is provided in the Personnel Rules in granting merit salary
adjustments, the Council should provide the City Manager with appropriate
direction.
