Rulon, Chief of Police SUBJECT: Approve and Adopt a part-time salary resolution for Police Cadets DATE: July 16, 2003 BACKGROUND: Currently the Colton Police Department employs six Police Cadets who are assigned part-time to the Administrative Services Division. The Police Cadet position has not had a salary increase since 1999. DISCUSSIOWANALYSIS: Cadets' responsibilities include responding to the needs of the Department's customers at the front counter as well as on the telephone. In addition, they process reports in preparation for court and or filing. The current hourly rate for a Police Cadet is $7.50. In the recently adopted 2003/2004 Budget, the police department budgeted an hourly rate increase for each of the Cadets to $10.00. The current rate paid by several of our surrounding cities averages $9.82 with the high being 10.75 per hour. The proposed compensation increase is fair for the work these employees contribute towards the organization mission.
