Recommended Action Adoption of a Resolution approving changes to the salary schedule for employees represented by the Carlsbad City Employees'Association (CCEA)and approving a side letter between the City of Carlsbad and CCEA. Executive Summary In order to sustain market competitiveness as an employer and attract and retain highly qualified employees, the city conducts a biennial study of the market competitiveness of the pay ranges for management and CCEA job classifications.This year, the study indicates that no pay range movement is necessary; however, there are several job classifications within the CCEA pay ranges that are low in relation to comparable jobs in the San Diego public sector market.Staff recommends that several job classifications be moved to higher pay ranges on the CCEA salary schedule. Discussion The management and CCEA salary schedules cover all full-time non-safety positions within the City of Carlsbad.These schedules reflect competitive pay ranges for jobs assigned to each pay grade and provide the basis for equitable pay decisions.Every other year,a salary survey is conducted and job classifications are reviewed to ensure that pay levels in the City of Carlsbad remain competitive with salaries paid by other local government agencies. This year's market survey supports no overall movement of the management or CCEA salary structures; however, the market data suggests that 7 CCEA job classifications be moved to higher pay ranges on the CCEA salary structure.The CCEA Salary Schedule (Exhibit 2) has been updated to reflect this change. This action does not cause an employee's pay rate to increase unless their current pay rate falls below the minimum of the new pay range for their job classification. This year, the pay rate for one employee would need to be adjusted to the new pay range minimum. Staff has met and conferred with the Carlsbad City Employees' Association regarding this proposed change.Agreement between the parties is reflected in a side letter (Exhibit 3). Fiscal Analysis The estimated annual cost of the recommended change to pay ranges for 7 CCEA job classifications is $1,500 which includes salary and related benefits for one employee. Funding for this is included in the FY 2016-17 adopted budget. Environmental Evaluation (CEQA) Pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21065, this action does not constitute a "project" within the meaning of CEQA in that it has no potential to cause either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonable foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment; and therefore, does not require environmental review.
