City of San Leandro <br />Meeting Date: October 17, 2016 <br />Staff Report <br />Agenda Section:File Number:16-534 CONSENT CALENDAR <br />Agenda Number:8.F. <br />TO:City Council <br />FROM:Chris Zapata <br />City Manager <br />BY:Jeff Kay <br />Acting Assistant City Manager <br />FINANCE REVIEW:David Baum <br />Finance Director <br />TITLE:Staff Report for a Resolution Amending the San Leandro Management <br />Organization (SLMO) Salary Schedule to Add the Classification of Assistant <br />City Manager <br />SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS <br />Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution to amend the salary schedule of <br />the San Leandro Management Organization (SLMO) to add the classification of Assistant City <br />Manager. <br />BACKGROUND <br />The Assistant City Manager classification was historically a part of the San Leandro <br />Management Organization (SLMO) bargaining group. In November 2012, the classification <br />was removed from SLMO when an individual employment agreement was negotiated with <br />Assistant City Manager Lianne Marshall. At that time, the City was experiencing significant <br />staffing changes at the executive management level, and the employment agreement for <br />Assistant City Manager was executed as part of a retention effort of this key executive <br />position. Assistant City Manager Marshall retired on April 30, 2016. <br />DISCUSSION <br />The separation of the previous Assistant City Manager provides an opportunity to return the <br />classification to the management organization where the classification will reside with all other <br />department head and mid-manager classifications. The position would receive the same <br />benefits and terms as provided in the SLMO Memorandum of Understanding. <br />This position is currently being filled with an acting assignment. Before a new appointment <br />can be made into the position, the salary range must be approved by the City Council. Staff <br />recommends that Assistant City Manager classification be set at a salary range of $164,784 - <br />$200,292 annually (range 1). <br />The City has conferred with SLMO to agree that the Assistant City Manager classification shall <br />be returned under the SLMO bargaining group to align with other City executive management <br />positions. <br />Fiscal Impacts <br />Page 1 City of San Leandro Printed on 10/11/2016
