AGENDA ITEM 3A <br />STAFF ORIGINATOR: Linda Waite Smith <br />DATE: 6 /28/99 <br />TOPIC: Consider Temporary Wage Increase for Finance Employees <br />VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5 <br />BACKGROUND: <br />Paula Schloer and Lynn Francis are part -time employees in the Finance <br />Department. For the second year in a row, they are performing essential, higher <br />level duties for a number of months while the organization is without a Finance <br />Director. I am requesting authorization to increase their salaries by ten percent <br />for the period of April 19, 1999, until a new Finance Director starts work. <br />The total cost for the increases to both positions is $3.37 per hour and is available <br />from salary savings from the vacant position which was being paid $2548 per hour. <br />If both employees work full -time for 24 weeks the total cost for both salary increases <br />would be $3,23520. <br />I have discussed this recommendation with representatives of AFSCME, the <br />bargaining unit that represents Ms. Schloer and Ms. Francis. They understand the <br />unique circumstances and concur with the recommendation. <br />OPTIONS: <br />1. Authorize ten percent salary increase for Paula Schloer and Lynn Francis for <br />period of April 19, 1999, until a new Finance Director begins work. <br />2. Retum the request to staff for further revision. <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />1. Authorize ten percent salary increase for Paula Schloer and Lynn Francis for <br />period of April 19, 1999, until a new Finance Director begins work. <br />
