AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Approving Control Point Adjustments for Executive Management
and Cost of Living Adjustments for Unrepresented Mid -Managers.
MEETING DATE: May 16,2007
PREPARED BY: Citv Manager's_ Office
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt Resolution approving control point adjustments for Executive
Management and cost of living adjustments for unrepresented Mid -
Managers.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The primary purpose of the system used by the City to compensate
Executive Management and unrepresented Mid -Managers is to
provide a system to recruit and retain the best available talent
available and to provide incentives for peak performance. In order for that purpose to be fulfilled, pay
ranges need to be competitivewith other jurisdictions.
The pay system used for executive managers includes the use of control pay points as the benchmark for
comparison with other jurisdictions and to provide uniformity of pay within those various positions. The
pay ranges for the positions covered within this system are set at the control pay point and may vary 10%
above or below this control point. Control pay points are used in place of the range and steps used for
other city employees. The control pay points for all employees in this class (department heads) have not
been adjusted since July, 2004. Council recently approved a cost of living increase of 4% for the Lodi
City Mid Management Association (LCMMA). The following table shows the current control and high
points and what those control and high points would be with a 4% cost of living adjustment. This proposal
provides pay increasesfor those Executive Management positions that have not received any increases
since July, 2004 (Police Chief, Public Works Director and Fire Chief). Other positions will not receive
increases but the pay ranges are being adjusted. The following shows these adjustments:
Police Chief
119,592
