ITEM TITLE: Resolution /1// /2,2-Approving wages for Unclassified Hourly Employees
for Fiscal Year 1983-84.
(4/5ths Vote: Yes No )
SUBMITTED BY:Director of Personne 1/,►•� -�--
REVIEWED BY: City Manager 0
The City's negotiating team has concluded Memoranda of Understanding or salary
agreements with the organized employee groups awarding pay and benefit increases. In
order to maintain internal consistency for the salary plan, the unclassified hourly
employees should receive similar increases .
RECOMMENDATION: That Council adopt the resolution.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: N/A
DISCUSSION: Hourly employees receive no benefits. However, the wages paid to these
individuals are adjusted annually in keeping with adjustments awarded to other City
employees. This maintains the internal alignment of the salary plan, as well as
keeping the hourly employee wages at a level competitive with other agencies . A 6%
salary increase would result in the following schedule for unclassified hourly employees :

ITEM TITLE: Resolution /W2 Establishing Compensation Plan for Middle Management
Employees for FY 1983-84
SUBMITTED BY: City Manager, (4/5ths Vote: Yes No x )
This resolution provides for the establishment of a compensation plan for middle managers
for FY 1983-84.
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt resolution.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: N.A.
DISCUSSION
Similar to the increases for employees represented by CVEA and the Western Council of
Engineers, it is recommended that, with the exception of the Housing Coordinator and Principal
Librarian, middle managers receive a 6% salary increase effective the first pay period
in July (pay period beginning July 8, 1983) .
In addition to the salary adjustment, it is recommended that the Housing Coordinator be
increased an additional 4.94% in order to equalize the pay of the two division heads
in the Community Development Department.
Principal Librarians are recommended to be increased an additional 3.3% in order to provide
proper spread between the Principals and the Senior Librarians whom they supervise.
It is the intention of the City Manager's Office to study in more detail the middle manager
salary levels. It would appear timely during the course of this fiscal year to determine
if the market trends for salaries of comparable positions to those in the City's middle
management group have changed and require any adjustments.
FISCAL IMPACT: Cost of the compensation increase, excluding fringe benefits, is estimated
at $90,300. Total cost including fringe benefit changes is $118,110.

for FY 1983-84
SUBMITTED BY: City Manager (4/5ths Vote: Yes x No )tg//
This resolution provides for adjusting the salary bands for executive managers.
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt resolution.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: N.A.

the proposed Schedule, which adds level E-5 to that Schedule, and allocates the Executive

anticipated adjustments next year as well.

ITEM TITLE: Resolution // / - Establishing executive and middle management fringe
benefits for FY 1983-84
SUBMITTED BY:City Manager / (4/5ths Vote: Yes NoX )
The attached benefit package for executive and middle managers has been revised for FY 1983-84.
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt resolution
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: N.A.
DISCUSSION
The changes proposed in the fringe benefit plan for executive and middle managers is as
follows:
1 . It is recommended that the market basket for top managers be increased
to $2,200, and for middle managers to $1 ,700. This will permit executive
managers to be fully covered for employee and full family under the
Kaiser medical plan. For the middle managers, it would roughly place them
at the midpoint between the market basket amount allocated for employees
represented by CVEA and the executive managers.
2. It is recommended that the market basket for executive and middle managers
be expanded to allow any excess money in the market basket for individual
employees to be utilized for expenses such as financial planning, tax
preparation, child care and any fitness/health program which would be
approved by the Personnel office that meets the employee's health care
objectives as determined by a physician or through the health education
program which the City may embark upon with Bay General Hospital . One of
the problems with any fringe benefit plan is that it treats individual
employees differently. While no one has ever devised any fringe benefit
system that provides perfect equity to all employees, the advantage of a
market basket or cafeteria style fringe benefit program is that individual
employees have greater choice to meet individual needs. These are benefits
which can be of benefit to both the employee and the City. It also meets
the overall goal of attempting to provide additional benefits and rewards
for middle and executive managers in order to promote better morale, plus
improve the City's retention and recruitment efforts of managers.
3. It is recommended that life insurance for employees be increased from $3,000
to $20,000 for middle managers and $40,000 for executive managers. This is
a relatively inexpensive benefit that would place Chula Vista more in line
with benefits provided in other cities (see Attachment "A") while, at the
same time, helping fulfill the goal of providing additional benefits for
executive and middle managers as discussed previously.
4. It is recommended that the employer Survivor's Benefit charge for both
executive and middle managers be paid by the City.
