BACKGROUND INFORMATION: In October 2017, as part of the long-term financial outlook and cost saving measures Council approved a resolution to combine the Secretary to the City Manager and the Legal Secretary classifications into one classification of Executive Administrative Assistant. The salary of the newly created combined classification of Executive Administrative Assistant was set at the salary of the Secretary to the City Manager. As a result, the City experienced much needed cost savings to the General Fund with the reduction of one full-time position. Over the past five years, the position of Executive Administrative Assistant has expanded and the level of responsibility and decision-making has greatly increased. Additionally, the incumbent performed the job duties of two classifications and was instrumental to the City Manager, City Attorney and Risk Manager as they navigated the complexities and every changing regulations pertaining to the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent emergency declaration. In accordance with the increased responsibilities and the high level of administrative support provided, the City Manager and the City Attorney desire to amend the salary range of the Executive Administrative Assistant by adjusting the salary steps. Staff propose a two-step salary adjustment to the salary range of the Executive Administrative Assistant, effective, January 9, 2023. This range adjustment will be accomplished by eliminating the bottom two steps, shifting the remaining steps down, and adding two steps (5% for each step) to the top of the range. This allows future salary growth for the incumbent and places the range closer to median with our comparative agencies.
