POSITION PAPER
Board Meeting Date: July 31, 2014
Subject: APPROVE SALARY ADJUSTMENT FOR GENERAL MANAGER ROGER
S. BAILEY EFFECTIVE AUGUST 19, 2014
Submitted By: Initiating Dept. /Div.:
Teji O'Malley, Human Resources Administration /Human Resources
Manager
REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION:
Elaine R. Boehme
Secretary of the District
ISSUE: Board approval is required for any salary adjustment that exceeds the
adjustment in the California Consumer Price Index (CPI) -Urban Wage Earners and
Clerical Workers for any employees that are not represented by a union or recognized
employee organization and considered a local agency executive.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve a 2.4- percent salary adjustment, which exceeds the 1.9-
percent California CPI, for General Manager Roger S. Bailey effective August 19, 2014.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS: Upon approval, this action results in an annual cost of $5,496.
ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: Deny the salary adjustment for Mr. Bailey.
BACKGROUND: The employment contract between the District and Mr. Bailey states
that "The Board annually will consider adjustment of the General Manager's annual
salary in such amounts and to such extent as the Board may determine is desirable on
the basis of its annual review and evaluation of the General Manager." The Board has
concluded Mr. Bailey's annual review and determined that a salary adjustment is
warranted based upon his performance.
The Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs) between the District and all of its
represented employees dictated a 2.4- percent increase, as reflected by the change in
the Bay Area Region CPI. The Board has determined that the same salary increase
shall be granted to Mr. Bailey effective August 19, 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 California
CPI in any given year must be brought to the Board for approval during a regular Board
meeting. The most recent change in the California CPI was 1.9 percent, which is lower
than the Bay Area Region CPI adjustment recommended for Mr. Bailey. Therefore, this
action is being brought to the Board for approval.
RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Approve a 2.4- percent salary adjustment, which
exceeds the 1.9- percent California CPI, for General Manager Roger S. Bailey effective
August 19, 2014.
