ISSUE: Board approval is required for any salary adjustment that exceeds the
adjustment in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for any employees that are not
represented by a union or recognized employee organization and considered a local
agency executive.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve the salary adjustment in excess of the CPI for Elaine
Boehme, Secretary of the District.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS: Upon approval, this action results in an annual cost of
$4,397.29.
ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: Deny the salary adjustment for Ms. Boehme;
however, that is not recommended as that would violate the terms of her employment
contract.
BACKGROUND: One of the provisions of the Memorandum of Understanding between
the District and the Management Group is that employees represented by the
Management Group will receive a yearly CPI adjustment with an additional 1 % wage
increase above the CPI. Effective April 18, 2014, this increase is equivalent to 3.4%
based upon the CPI and the additional 1% wage increase.
The employment contract between the District and Ms. Boehme reflects that she will be
entitled to the same benefits as those afforded to the Management Group, hence, she is
entitled to a salary adjustment of 3.4% effective April 18, 2014.
However, pursuant to Government Code 3511.2, effective on or after January 1, 2012,
any salary adjustment for those employees considered a local agency executive that
exceeds the CPI in any given year must be brought to the Board for approval during a
regular Board meeting.
RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Approve the salary adjustment in excess of the
CPI for Elaine Boehme, Secretary of the District.
