CC 2020-12-08_08b Part Time Compensation Adjustments
MEMORANDUM
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: MICHAEL STEVENS, DIRECTOR OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES
BY: LISA CHRISTENSEN, HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGER
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF COMPENSATION ADJUSTMENTS FOR PART-
TIME EMPLOYEES AND APPROVAL OF THE UPDATED CITYWIDE
COMBINED SALARY SCHEDULE
DATE: DECEMBER 8, 2020
SUMMARY OF ACTION:
Adoption of a Resolution increasing the hourly pay rate for certain part-time positions will
ensure compliance with the new minimum wage law in California.
IMPACT ON FINANCIAL AND PERSONNEL RESOURCES:
The recommended pay rate adjustments are projected to cost an additional $9,000 for
the balance of the current fiscal year. This increase was included in the FY 2020-21
Budget.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended the City Council adopt a Resolution making compensation
adjustments for part-time employees in compliance with minimum wage laws and approve
the updated Citywide combined salary schedule.
BACKGROUND:
In April 2016, the Governor signed Senate Bill 3, which, among other things, raises the
minimum wage in California to $15.00 per hour over a number of years. The next
scheduled increase will take effect January 1, 2021, and will increase the minimum wage
from $13.00 per hour to $14.00 per hour for any employer who employs 26 or more
employees.
On December 27, 2019, the City increased its part-time salaries for the four minimum
wage classifications: Facility Attendant, Sports Facility Attendant, AM/PM Assistant I, and
seasonal Student Intern. In addition, the 10% differential was maintained for six positions
that are part of a series of advancements or higher level jobs: Senior Facility Attendant,
AM/PM Assistant II, AM/PM Assistant Teacher, AM/PM Teacher, Preschool Teacher and
Administrative Intern. It is a standard practice to maintain a differential in pay between

classes of positions in order to account for increased levels of job proficiency and
responsibility.
Currently, there are still some part-time positions paying less than $14.00 per hour.
Therefore, in preparation for implementation of the January 2021 minimum wage
increase, staff has reviewed the current salary schedule for part-time employees and
recommends changes to the schedule consistent with the State’s minimum wage
increase.
ANALYSIS OF ISSUES:
Implementing revised salary schedules on the first day of a payroll period is
recommended to provide for the most efficient implementation. In this case, the payroll
period nearest to the first of the New Year begins on December 25, 2020. It is
recommended that the City increase certain part-time wages that will not be in compliance
on this date, which is anticipated to have minimal fiscal impact due to holiday schedules.
The largest impact of increases in minimum wage is to the Recreation Services positions,
as many of these positions are paid at or near minimum wage. The proposed salary
schedule increases the minimum pay for the AM/PM Assistant I, Facility Attendant, Sports
Facility Attendant, and seasonal Student Intern positions and maintains the established
10% differential for six positions that are part of a series of advancements for higher level
jobs. For example, because the AM/PM Assistant I position will increase to $14.00 per
hour to meet the State’s minimum wage requirements, the AM/PM Assistant II position
will increase to $15.40 per hour in order to maintain the 10% differential between the two
classes of positions. Pay rates for other part time classifications that already meet the
minimum wage requirements and pay differential will be addressed at the same time as
the management and represented employees in July 2021.
Pursuant to CalPERS Circular 200-050-12, a publically available Citywide pay schedule
must be adopted by the governing body. Therefore, staff has prepared an updated
Citywide Combined Salary Schedule to include the part-time wage increase
recommended above (Exhibit B of attached Resolution).
ALTERNATIVES:
The following alternatives are provided for City Council consideration:
1. Adopt the Resolution amending compensation for certain part-time positions; or
2. Provide direction to staff.
ADVANTAGES:
The City will have a part-time salary schedule that is compliant with minimum wage laws
and an updated Citywide Combined Salary Schedule.
