Item No. 8B Type of Business: CB WK: Work Session; PH: Public Hearing; CA: Consent Agenda; CB: Council Business City of Mounds View Staff Report To: Honorable Mayor and City Council From: David Longville, Golf Course Manager Item Title/Subject: Resolution 5805 Approving a Wage Increase for Clubhouse Manager, Ken Manthis Date of Report: July 17, 2002 I realize it has been rather systematic when analyzing employees for annual performance reviews. It is because of some unique circumstances and an outstanding performance evaluation that I am recommending to the council a skip in the step increase for Mr. Manthis to $ 43,700.00. Please let me explain in detail the reasons behind this recommendation: 1. Mr. Manthis has been head golf professional and clubhouse manager for the City of Mounds View for seven years. He had already been employed by the city when the Hay System was incorporated. It is safe to assume that if this system was in place in 1996, Mr. Manthis would have already surpassed the final step 5 increment by two years. 2. Because of its uniqueness, The Bridges Golf Course is difficult when comparing to other facilities. However, if you look at available information from the National Golf Foundation’s 1999 golf facility employee compensation study, you can decipher some important statistics. The median salary for a head golf professional at an 18-hole facility in 1999 was $ 40,000.00. These same facilities also reported a $ 22,600.00 salary for pro shop manager. In addition, that median salary does not include lesson revenues. 3. After researching the industry, the Labor Relations Association submitted a maximum salary of $ 46,000.00 for the head golf professional/clubhouse manager position. 4. Mr. Manthis has been nominated and has a very good chance of winning the Minnesota Section PGA Junior Golf Leader Award for 2002. Mr. Manthis has been nominated for this award four years in a row.
