' COUNCIL COMMUNICATION TM AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Approving Revisions to Compensation for Confidential Employees for 2015 through 2017 and Appropriating Funds ($8,930) MEETING DATE: December 3, 2014 PREPARED BY: Deputy City Manager RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt resolution approving revisions to compensation for Confidential Employees for 2015 through 2017 and appropriating funds ($8,930). BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Although the Confidential Mid -Managers and General Services workers are not part of a recognized bargaining group, the City Council has traditionally treated the Confidential Employees in the same manner as their closest corollary bargaining unit. The City Manager requests that these employees be granted revisions in the same manner as is requested for the Executive Management team at this time as a partial restoration of prior concessions. Should the corollary bargaining groups settle with different terms than those requested herein, staff will bring such revisions back to the Council for adoption. This request calls for a 1.5 percent increase in base pay effective the first full pay period in calendar year 2015. The revisions are for a term of three years, covering January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2017. The agreement includes 'trigger' language for calendar years 2016 and 2017 that may result in additional compensation for this group. In the event audited General Fund reserves exceed the Council's target reserve level (16 percent of General Fund revenues) for either FY 2014/15 or FY 2015/16, the agreement calls for a base salary adjustment or a one-time, non-PERSable payment to the group not to exceed two percent of base salary. The trigger calculation is net of any reserves carried over to pay for committed amounts under the agreement. Lodi's employees agreed to voluntary decreases in total compensation in every year from 2009 through 2012. When the 2012 MOUs expired, Lodi's employees agreed to permanent reductions in total compensation of nine percent in safety and seven percent in miscellaneous. These voluntary employee reductions allowed the City to survive the Great Recession, stabilize its weak reserve and perform needed capital improvements. During this same period, the cost of living has increased by 11.8 percent (San Francisco -Oakland -San Jose CPI -U). Most City employees have not seen an increase in base pay since 2007/08 depending upon bargaining unit. The City is now in a position to grant a small increase in base pay as a result of increased revenues and prudent expense management. The base pay increase is structured in such a fashion that it is sustainable over the term of the agreement from current reserves in excess of the Council -approved General Fund reserve target. Potential increases in subsequent years of the agreement are also structured based upon available reserves over the reserve target. APPROVED: Manager Lodi certainly faces funding challenges ahead and must plan for them. It also faces continued fiscal stress to a work force that contributed significantly to addressing the fiscal impact of the Great Recession. Although the current excess over our reserve target could certainly be invested in other fashions, staff believes that investing in our employees is the most appropriate use of these funds. FISCAL IMPACT: Total cost of the proposed agreement is $54,690, of which $8,930 is applicable to FY 2014/15; $18,130 is applicable to FY 2015/16; $18,360 is applicable to FY 2016/17; and $9,270 is applicable to FY 2017/18. The FY 2014/15 component of this proposal is not included in the 2014/15 budget and will require an appropriation. Funding is available from the General Fund dollars in excess of the 2013/14 reserve target. FUNDING AVAILABLE: Funding for this item will be provided by funds in excess of the General Fund reserve target established by Council.
