Consider Approving a Comprehensive Citywide Salary Schedule for all City Positions and Adjustments to Salary Ranges (Human Resources Director Jenkins).
ADOPT RESOLUTION NO. 19-0026
Council should view salaries in conjunction with all related costs, including pensions, vacation/sick, medical insurance, comp time, cash-outs, buy-backs, early retirement, shadow credits, etc., and compare all the PRIVATE sector (which is paying these costs). Our pensions are unsustainable because they are excessive. So you need to adjust other components to adjust to sustainable--like no salary increases. Then consider that reserves are increased in proportion to these extra costs per policy.
