<br />• Total Current Expenditures (15 points) <br />• Property Tax Revenue (15 points) <br />• Proximity to Little Canada (10 points) <br /> <br />Data was collected from a variety of sources. Communities within the seven-county metro area <br />with populations between 5,200 and 24,500 were included as part of the initial analysis which <br />resulted in data from over 50 communities. As part of the compensation study, MGT <br />recommends 15-20 peers be selected for purposes of data collection data. Initially, MGT <br />recommended those peers with a score of 85 points or above. <br /> <br />Staff reviewed those peers and recommended a few adjustments to the comparable communities <br />list, which MGT has agreed with. Those adjustments included: <br />• Adding peers that border Little Canada or are in proximity including Maplewood, <br />Roseville, Shoreview, Mendota Heights and New Brighton. <br />o These are also cities Little Canada works with closely with, and has gained <br />employees from, or lost employees to. <br />• Removing municipalities that 40 miles and over in distance, which included communities <br />in Scott County as they are no longer considered a “metro community.” <br /> <br />Table 1 shows the data results from the comparable communities recommended for purposes of <br />the classification and compensation study, and the corresponding score. This would result in a <br />total of 20 comparable communities. <br /> <br />Table 1 – Proposed Comparable Communities for Compensation Study <br /> If approved, staff would utilize this list going forward for all compensation or benefit based <br />analysis including, but not limited to annual cost of living adjustments, benefit level review, and <br />any other compensation based research that may occur. <br /> <br /> <br />
