Department Recommendation:
Adopt a resolution clarifying the City Council adoption dates and effective dates of the salary schedules previously approved for Fiscal Years 2019-2020 through 2026-2027.
Summary:
The City Council is requested to adopt a resolution clarifying the City Council adoption dates and effectives dates of the salary schedules previously approved for Fiscal Years 2019-2020 through 2026-2027 to ensure compliance with California Code of Regulations (CCR) section 570.5, which governs publicly available pay schedules for CalPERS participating agencies.
The proposed amendments are administrative in nature and do not establish new pay rates, modify previously approved compensation, or alter the terms and conditions of any existing Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs). The amendments document previously approved Council adoption dates and effective dates of salary adjustments on the City's publicly available salary schedules.
Background Discussion:
Pursuant to California Code of Regulations (CCR) section 570.5, public agencies participating in CalPERS are required to maintain a publicly available pay schedule that is used to determine employee pay rates. Publicly available pay schedules are a critical component in verifying compensation used to calculate retirement benefits for CalPERS members. To comply with CCR section 570.5, the pay schedule must meet eight specific requirements, including the identification of the effective date and any revision dates.
A review of the City's publicly available pay schedule identified revisions necessary to satisfy this requirement. The revisions are summarized below, with the “Council Adoption Date” and “Effective Date” columns identifying the corresponding changes reflected in the attached salary schedules presented for City Council adoption.

The proposed amended salary schedules are administrative in nature and do not establish new pay rates, modify previously approved compensation, or alter the terms and conditions of any existing Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs). Instead, they document the original council adoption date and effective dates of previously approved salary adjustments and incorporate those dates into the salary schedules to maintain compliance with California Code of Regulations section 570.5.
Fiscal impact including annual maintenance and operating costs:
There is no fiscal impact associated with adoption of the proposed resolution. The clarification does not change salary schedules, employee pay rates, or the City's existing compensation obligations.
