CITY OF COLTON AGENDA REPORT FOR COUNCIL MEETING OF MARCH 17, 1998 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council APPROVAL: Henry Garcia, City Manage FROM: Dennis Morris, Personnel Director'2'-%�� SUBJECT: A Resolution Adopting Job Classification Titles and Setting Basic Compensation Rates for Full -Time Classifications as of Fiscal Year 1997-98 DATE: March 9, 1998 BACKGROUND: The most recent master document which sets job classifications and basic compensation rates is Resolution 62A-96 along with several amendments. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: The City Council approved a four percent pay increase effective July 1, 1997, for all groups except Fire and IBEW. The resolution with the new salary ranges is attached. Additionally, this resolution formally implements the revised classifications/title changes, as recommended by the Consultant, and as previously informally reviewed and approved by the Mayor and City Council. The title changes not listed on "EXIMIT A" are: Purchasing Assistant, Senior Consumer Service Representative, Senior Meter Reader, and Warehouse Supervisor. These positions are omitted because they entail salary changes and will be addressed during the budget process for FY 1998/99. An additional title change that is being recommended is the title of Personnel Director to Human Resource Director. The reason for this change is that the Personnel Director title is an outdated term. It refers to the personnel function as more of a clerical or recordkeeping function. Human Resources is more of a contemporary term and more in line with the idea that the Human Resources in an organization is the most important resource that any organization possesses. It is also complimentary to the new City Manager's philosophy of "Team Colton". FINANCIAL EMPACT: None. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: None. RECOMMENDATION: Request adoption of a new resolution, submitted as "EXHIBIT A", which includes the applicable compensation rates as agreed to by the aforementioned bargaining units and the requisite job classification titles which were approved as recommended by the Consultant earlier this year Further request the rescission of Resolution No. 62A-96 and applicable amendments.
