For meeting of 6/5/79
ITEM TITLE Ordinance �S ,I - Amending Section 2 .04 . 580 of the Municipal Code
Relating to Compensation for Councilmen
SUBMITTED BY City Attorney
ITEM EXPLANATION (4/STH' S VOTE REQUIRED YES X NO )
As this office recently explained in a memo dated May 17, 1979 , the
5� Councilmanic increase authorized under the Government Code has
previously been granted effective after one or more of the Council
members has been elected . This procedure is assumed to be required
by virtue of the provisions of Section 36516 .5 of the Government
Code .
However, since the Attorney General has provided an opinion stating
that Charter cities are not bound by that provision and that if salary
adjustments are authorized by ordinance of the Council, such an ordi-
nance can be effective at any time .
Therefore, it would seem appropriate to readjust the salary increase
procedure for the Council so that salary increases would occur at
the beginning of the calendar year . In order to properly facilitate
the adjustment and since the last salary increase occurred in May of
1978 , it is recommended that initially a 5� increase be provided
effective July 1, 1979 and thereafter the Council may, at its option,
at the end of the calendar year provide for an increase not to exceed
5� for the succeeding calendar year. Such an ordinance has been
prepared .
