DATE: June 6, 2016
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council through the City Manager
FROM: Dianne Dinsmore, Human Resources Director
SUBJECT: Resolution Amending the Pay Rates for Part-Time Recreation Positions and
Establishing the Titles and Salary for Other Part-Time Positions
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached Resolution Amending the Pay Rates
for Part -Time Recreation Positions if the City Council increases the Living Wage for FY
2016/17, effective July 1, 2016, and establishing the titles and salary for other Part-time
Positions.
BACKGROUND
A related item is on the Council's agenda for June 6, 2016, that would, with Council approval,
increase the Living Wage rate for FY 2016/17. The City's part-time classifications of Building
Attendant, Marina Attendant, Tiny Tots Teacher I, and Ramp Attendant are subject to the Living
Wage. These positions, and part-time Recreation positions benchmarked to the City's Living
Wage positions, are considered for adjustment one time annually and were last adjusted up by
2.7% effective July 1, 2015.
DISCUSSION
It has been determined that the Consumer Price Index upon which the Living Wage
increase is calculated has gone up 3.2% during the past year. If the City provides a 3.2%
pay rate adjustment to those employees in Living Wage positions effective July 1, 2016,
there are positions benchmarked to Living Wage position classifications in the Recreation
Services Division that have been treated in the same manner. To maintain pay rate
consistency among those positions that are related and/or similar, but are not subject to
the Living Wage ordinance, it is recommended that the Council also grant those part-time
position classifications the 3.2% cost of living adjustment effective July 1, 2016. The
affected positions and rates of pay are listed in Exhibit A.
In addition, the City Manager may from time to time establish, for the efficient operations
of the City, other extra help or temporary positions. In addition to applying the
adjustment to pay rates covered by living wage, the attached resolution also establishes
the titles and salaries of other part -time positions. The positions are listed in Exhibit A.
The recommended list includes positions that are either in use or are anticipated to
become necessary, therefore the titles and salary should be formally approved.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS
Increasing the Living Wage by 3.2 %, effective July 1, 2016, will result in a total estimated
increased cost to the City in FY 2016/17 of $14,052. The General Fund's share of this cost is
$12,237. The estimated cost of adjusting the hourly wage of City of Petaluma Living Wage
positions is $6,456 and $7,596 for those Recreation positions benchmarked to the City's Living
Wage positions. There is no additional cost associated with establishment of the titles and
salaries listed in Exhibit A.
