SUBJECT: Proposed Changes to Article III - The Pay Plan Section 8
REQUESTED BY: Janice Lane, Human Resources Director
1/4/-.1/ II .1... 1.__ .-11 /- - . .►.\__ -'.!/A ./ 1I.\ ./I rI 1 I II
REQUEST:
The HR Department was asked to review this section of the Personnel Ordinance to
update the section regarding promotions and to consider adding a policy for retention
purposes. The current promotion policy is set for a salary increase of 5% of the
employee's current salary or the minimum of the new pay grade (whichever is greater).
In addition, a Department Head can make a request of a 6% - 10% increase with
written justification to the County Manager for approval. The current policy puts
constraints on the amounts of increases the County is able to provide an existing
employee, putting the current maximum increase at 10%.
Recently, the County has been made aware that due to the current labor market and
local competitive salaries and has been faced with the need to offer a starting salary
amount somewhere between the minimum rate and job rate; sometimes even midpoint,
to attract and secure external candidates. Unfortunately, this amount is more than the
10% the County is able to offer qualified internal County employees. Human
Resources is proposing to make an addition to this section to allow the County Manager
to have the authority to approve a salary increase of up to 20% in special instances
where the current employee's professional experience, training, certifications,
complexity of the job duties, tenure and competitive job market supports a higher
salary increase.
The HR Department also recommends adding a Retention Policy to the Personnel
Ordinance. Recently, some of our Departments such as HRW and Development
Services lost talented employees who decided to leave the County to take a position at
neighboring municipalities for a considerable increase in salary. The Retention Policy
will allow the County Manager to have the authority to approve an increase up to 15%
for non-probationary period employees for retention purposes for key positions
(definition added to Personnel Ordinance) when the County is in danger of losing
talented staff members.
Per the County's adopted Strategic Plan, one of the Goal Objective (2.1)within
Organizational Excellence identified by the Board is to attract, retain and grow high
performing employees. HR believes the above proposed changes will assist in retention

of County employees who are willing to take on the added responsibilities and job
duties to work towards a promotion as well as in situations of the County potentially
being in danger of losing talented employees.
FINANCE OFFICER'S RECOMMENDATION:
COUNTY MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION:
The County Manager recommends approval of these changes to the Personnel Ordinance to
assist in providing appropriate pay for promotions and to retain talented staff members with
the County.

Section 3. Definitions (Listed Alphabetically)
Key Position: A position whose decision-making authority and related responsibilities significantly
influence organizational policies, strategic goals, business operations, or mission-critical projects. A key
position can be a department head or a supervisor or a position that requires specialized knowledge,
expertise, or skills.
Section 8. Promotions, Demotions, Transfers, Reclassifications, & Revisions
At the beginning of the fiscal year, any promotions, salary adjustments, reclassifications, or revisions
will be applied before any cost of living adjustments.
When an employee is promoted, demoted, transferred, or reclassified, the rate of pay for the new
position shall be established in accordance with the following rules:
Promotion: Any employee who receives a promotion will receive a minimum of a five percent (5%)
increase but not to exceed ten percent (10%). For any increase between six percent (6%) and ten
percent (10%), the Department Head must provide written justification unless that percentage is the
beginning of the new grade. In some special instances such as the employee's professional
experience, training, certifications, complexity of the job duties of the new position, tenure, and other
job-related factors and/or to ensure the salary is competitive in comparable job markets, the County
Manager has authority to approve a salary increase of up to twenty percent (20%) with written
justification from the Department Head.
Movement within the same salary grade is considered lateral and there will not be a salary change.
Interim Promotion: Any employee who is promoted to an interim position in a higher pay grade will
receive a pay increase of five percent (5%) or the beginning of the interim position pay grade,
whichever is greater while performing the interim duties; however, if the position is a Department Head
position or higher, he or she shall receive a ten percent (10%) pay increase while performing the
interim duties or the beginning position grade whichever is higher. An interim assignment shall not
exceed six months. At the conclusion, if the employee returns to his or her former position they will
return to his or her former salary before the interim assignment.
Demotion: An employee who is voluntarily or involuntarily demoted shall have his or her salary or
hourly wage left the same, reduced five percent (5%) or reduced to anywhere in the lower grade pay
range, depending on the circumstances of the demotion and Department Head recommendation.
Transfers: An employee who transfers from a position in one grade to a position in another grade
assigned to the same pay range shall continue to receive the same salary or hourly wage.
Reclassifications/Revisions:
A. Any employee who is currently at the minimum pay rate of their current position and the position is
then reclassified to a grade having a higher salary or hourly pay range, that employee shall receive a
five percent (5%) pay increase or an increase to the minimum pay rate of the new pay range,
whichever is higher.
B. Any employee who is currently above the minimum pay rate of their current position and the
position is then reclassified to a grade having a higher salary or hourly pay range, that employee's
salary or hourly wage shall be appropriately adjusted to the same percentage above the minimum pay
rate in the new pay range.
C. If a position is reclassified to a grade having a lower salary or hourly pay range than that positions
current grade, any employee's salary or hourly wage that is above the maximum rate of the newly
Retention:
The County Manager has authority to approve a salary increase of up to fifteen percent (15%) for non-
probationary employees for retention purposes for key positions when the County may be in danger of
losing talented staff members. However, an employee's salary shall not exceed the maximum rate for
that pay grade and an employee shall not receive more than a fifteen percent (15%) retention salary
increase every two years. When determining appropriate salary adjustments, the County Manager
shall take into consideration relevant factors including salaries paid in comparable and competitive job
market and the impact of losing the employee on the organization.
