IV. PERSONNEL RECOMMENDATIONS
Frank Tripepi, City Manager, presented the staff report. Mr. Tripepi reported that staff
has not had a salary increase in years and according to survey taken of other cities, some of our
positions are on the bottom of the scale. Mr. Tripepi is recommending a 3% COLA, 5% merit
increase for all staff, full and part-time, effective July 1, 1998; a promotion in the Finance
Director's position; and, bring the salaries of the Senior Maintenance Men, Park Maintenance
Men, and Community Service positions in line with salaries paid in other communities. Mr.
Tripepi stated that the Parks and Recreation Director was asked to survey his department to
determine whether or not everyone was working within their job classification. One maintenance
person is restricted to certain working conditions, such as requiring indoor duties and not working
outdoors on Holidays, and he cannot perform all the tasks that the position requires. Mr. Tripepi
recommends that that person remain at the Community Center and reclassify that position to a
Recreation Center Custodian.
Councilman Taylor requested further information on the increase in annuities.
Mr. Tripepi responded that some of the increases were due to the 2% at 55 amount which
impacted the budget by $48,000; and PERS has the largest increase at 17.06% increase, and that
some items remained at zero. Mr. Tripepi stated that the total increase to the budget is
$153,930; which includes FICA, Medicare, Insurances, Workers Compensation, LTD,
unemployment insurance and PERS.

Councilman Taylor stated that there is not enough information in their packet to explain
the increases.
Karen Ogawa, Finance Director, added that this amount reflects the COLA and merit
adjustments as well.
Councilman Taylor asked if the reclassified positions will receive merit increases.
Mr. Tripepi, stated for the record, that the 5% merit increase does not include the two
senior maintenance men, maintenance men, and the two Community Service positions.
MOTION BY COUNCILMAN IMPERIAL, SECOND BY MAYOR PRO TEM
VASQUEZ that the Council approve the 3% COLA and 5% Merit Increases for all staff; a
promotion in the Finance Director's position; and, increase the salaries of the Senior Men,
Maintenance Men, and Community Service positions to reflect a median range of other cities in
the area. Vote resulted:
Yes:
Clark, Imperial, Vasquez, Bruesch
No:
None
Absent:
None
Abstain:
Taylor
The Mayor declared said motion duly carried and so ordered.
Councilman Taylor stated that he abstained as there is not enough information tonight and
request a complete report on the annuities.
There being no further action to be taken at this time, the meeting was adjourned at 6:30
p.m.
