costs as a result of various actions and programs; and
WHEREAS, among those actions and programs, the following are the most
significant in promoting efficiency and reducing costs:
• The operational consolidation of the City and the Community
Development Commission of the City of National City ("CDC");
• A 27% reduction in executive and management staff since 2004;
• Effective July 1, 2009, 15 executive or management level staff positions
will have been eliminated, resulting in an estimated $1,259,700 in annual
savings;
• The City's general fund savings have increased from $4.4 Million in 2004
to a projected $7.5 Million at the end of 2009;
• Approximately $28 Million in additional grant funds have been received by
the City over the past four years;
• The City has not raised salaries for members of the Executive and
Management groups since 2002;
• The City Council, City Clerk, City Treasurer, City Manager, and City
Attorney are now paying 2% of the Employer Paid Member Contribution
to CaIPERS; and
• The City has unblended health care costs between current and retired
employees.
WHEREAS, with these efficiencies and cost reductions in mind, as well as
current economic conditions and the City's structural deficit, the City Manager has proposed an
adjustment in salary bands for members of the executive and management groups, consisting
of an upward adjustment of salary bands for executive and management employees by 6%. Of
the 6%, 3% will be used for across the board salary increases for all management and
executive employees. The remaining 3% may result in additional salary increases of up to 3%,
which will be determined on an individual basis based on performance evaluations. This action
does not include the City Manager, Assistant City Manager, or CDC Executive Director.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of
National City hereby approves an upward adjustment of salary bands for classifications within
the executive and management groups by 6%. Of the 6%, 3% will be used for across the board
