CITY OF MOUNDS VIEW
COUNTY OF RAMSEY
STATE OF MINNESOTA
AUTHORIZING REVISIONS TO SECTION 2.01 COMPENSATION AND
CLASSIFICATION, AND SECTION 5.01 SEPARATION OF EMPLOYMENT, IN THE
PERSONNEL MANUAL
WHEREAS, the City of Mounds View has a Personnel Manual; and
WHEREAS, this resolution authorizes revisions to Section 2.01 Compensation and Classification,
D — Progress Through the Steps. Staff worked with the City's Wage and Compensation Consultant, David
Drown and Associates, to create appropriate wording to Section 2.01; and
WHEREAS, this resolution also authorizes revisions to Section 5.01 Separation of Employment, C
— Loss of Good Standing. Staff is requesting to deny access into any secured City department after an
employee has terminated with a loss of "good standing"; and
WHEREAS, the HR Committee has reviewed and supports both changes to the Personnel Manual;
and
WHEREAS, the revisions are underlined to read as follows:
Section 2.01 — Compensation and Classification, D — Progress Through the Steps:
Generally, new employees will begin at Step 1 of the nine (9) step plan. The City Council may, however,
authorize an employee to start at a step other than Step 1 in consideration of experience and qualifications.
Employees hired to start at Step 1 will be eligible for an increase at six (6) months of service. Advancement
to subsequent steps would occur on the employee's anniversary date until the employee reaches Step 9.
Advancement to a subsequent step necessitates (1) a performance evaluation rated satisfactory or better
by the employee's supervisor and (2) approval by the Department Head and City Administrator. The
progression from Step 1 to Step 9 represents a span of seven (7) years. If the Department Head believes
an employee should be considered to receive an increase of more than one step, the Department Head
must present their exceptional logic to the City Administrator for consideration (example: The employee
came up with a plan to save the city a significant amount of funds or to dramatically increase efficiency;
etc.);
Section 5.01 Separation of Employment, C — Loss of Good Standing
Loss of Good Standing
Employees who terminated with a loss of ".good standing' will not be allowed access into any secured City
department after their termination without permission from the divisions Department Head. Loss of "good
standing" includes former employees who failed to give a two (2) week notice.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Mounds View City Council does hereby authorize
the revision to Sections 2.01 and 5.01 of the Personnel Manual as stated abope, effective August 24, 2026.
Adopted on this 24th day of August 2026.
