Summary Explanation/Background
THE FINANCE AND ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES DEPARTMENT AND THE HUMAN RESOURCES DIVISION RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE ABOVE MOTIONS.
Motion A seeks Board approval of the Unrepresented Pay Plan and Compensation Policy for Fiscal Year 2022 (Plan) (Exhibit 1). The proposed Plan includes a 4% base salary increase for unrepresented employees, who have received a “meets” or “exceeds” overall expectations on their most recent evaluation. This salary increase and 3% range extension are in response to current economic conditions in the market and in recognition of the hard work of County employees during the pandemic.
Motion B seeks Board approval of classification actions necessary to proactively maintain the County's Classification and Pay Plans (Exhibit 2). This item includes the elimination of unused job classifications, board-level reclassifications, and salary range reallocations. These periodic adjustments reflect the active management of the County’s classification system and provide timely resolution for affected agencies. These adjustments are effective on October 3, 2021. These actions do not increase the personnel cap and are funded in the Fiscal Year 2022 budget.
Motion C extends the base salary increase granted to unrepresented employees for Fiscal Year 2022 to the three positions that report to the Board (County Administrator, County Attorney, and County Auditor), including the approval of any necessary contractual modifications for Fiscal Year 2022.
Motion D authorizes the County Administrator to take the necessary administrative and budgetary actions to implement these increases and changes in Motions A, B, and C.
