Exhibit A
Side Letter Agreement Amending the Statement of Benefits
Between the City of Lodi and the Lodi Fire Mid -Management
January 1, 2015 - December 31, 2017
This agreement is entered into between the City of Lodi, a municipal corporation ("City"), and
the Lodi Fire Mid -Management ("LFMM").
The City and LFMM bargained in good faith and negotiated a successor Statement of Benefits
(SoB) approved by the Lodi City Council on December 3, 2014, with a term of January 1, 2015
through December 31, 2017. The SoB provided for a one and one-half (1.5) percent Cost of
Living Adjustment (COLA) effective January 5, 2015, and included trigger language for
potential increases of up to two (2) percent in January 2016 and January 2017.
The City negotiated successor contracts with all other Mid -Management units that provide
COLAs of three (3) percent in 2015, two (2) percent in 2016, and two (2) percent in 2017, and do
not contain the trigger language that is in the LFMM SoB. The City wishes to provide the same
COLA increases to the LFMM as was provided to all other Mid -Management Units and to
-r-ernove the trigger language from the LFMM SoB.
This Side -Letter Agreement increases the COLA in 2015 from one and one-half (1.5) percent to
a net of three (3) percent, resulting in a one and one-half (1.5) percent increase retro -active to
January 5, 2015.
Representatives from the City and from LFMM have met and conferred regarding Article I -
Salary, and mutually agree to the following amended article for the duration of the LFMM
MOU.
ARTICLE I - SALARY
1.1 City shall provide a net cost of living adjustment (COLA) of three (3) percent
(one and one-half (1.5) percent increase retroactive to January 5, 2015).
City shall provide a cost of living adjustment (COLA) of two (2) percent
effective the first full pay period in January 2016.
City shall provide a cost of living adjustment (COLA) of two (2) percent
effective the first full pay period in January 2017.
This Side Letter shall not become effective until approved by the Lodi City Council.
