NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Council of the City of Santa Rosa adopts the modified document describing Wages, Hours and Other Terms and Conditions of Employment for and on behalf of the employees in the City’s Unit 10 – Executive Management effective July 1, 2024 through June 20, 2027, in substantially the same form as “Exhibit A”, subject to approval by the City Attorney, to eliminate the July 2025 market equity salary adjustments previously approved by Council.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Council amends the City classification plan and salary plan for permanent budgeted positions in Unit 10 – Executive Management to eliminate the following market equity salary adjustments previously added by Council:
Effective the first full pay period following July 1, 2025, increase the base pay for each classification with a base wage more than 10% below market average using the final data provided by the 2024 Gallagher Total Compensation Study.
Effective the first full pay period following July 1, 2025, increase the base pay for each non-surveyed classification which is tied to a benchmark classification that receives a base wage increase to maintain the differential recommended by the 2024 Gallagher Total Compensation Study.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Council authorizes and directs the Mayor to execute the document describing the Wages, Hours and Other Terms and Conditions of Employment as amended by this resolution.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Council authorizes and directs the City Manager or designee to implement and administer the document describing Wages, Hours and Other Terms and Conditions of Employment adopted by this resolution and any supplements, modifications or amendments to that document that are operational and not financial in nature, that may be necessary from time to time to implement its terms, subject to approval as to form by the City Attorney.
