City of San Leandro <br />City Council <br />Meeting Date: December 4, 2023 <br />Agenda Number: 5.e. <br />Agenda Section: CONSENT CALENDAR <br />File Number: 23-575 <br />File Type: Staff Report <br />Adopt a Resolution to Amend the Non-Represented Part-Time Salary Schedule to Include a Wage <br />Adjustment to Comply with the State Minimum Wage Effective January 1, 2024 <br />COUNCIL PRIORITY <br />·Infrastructure <br />SUMMARY <br />Effective January 1, 2024, California’s minimum wage rate will increase to $16.00 per hour, <br />which will require a wage adjustment to the City of San Leandro ’s Non-Represented <br />Part-Time salary schedule. <br />RECOMMENDATIONS <br />Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution amending the San Leandro <br />Non-Represented Part-Time salary schedule to include a 3.25% wage adjustment to stay in <br />compliance with the state’s minimum wage. <br />BACKGROUND <br />Beginning in 2023, the state minimum wage can increase by 3.5% each year or the actual <br />rate of change per the national Consumer Price Index (CPI). In late September 2023, the <br />State of California announced the minimum wage will rise from $15.50 to $16.00 per hour for <br />all employers beginning January 1, 2024. <br />Analysis <br />To comply with the state ’s minimum wage, a three and one -quarter percent (3.25%) wage <br />increase is recommended across the non -represented part-time salary schedule effective <br />January 1, 2024. The adjustment will increase the City ’s lowest hourly rate from $15.80 to <br />$16.31 per hour. This recommended wage adjustment is consistent with the salary increase <br />approved by the City Council for the San Leandro City Employees’ Association (SLCEA), and <br />will provide an equitable wage adjustment for all non -represented part -time employees. <br />Non-represented part -time employees are primarily seasonal or temporary staff employed in <br />the City’s Recreation Division and the Library Department. <br />Financial Impacts <br />There is no financial impact to this action. The cost of the wage adjustment was included into <br />the City’s adopted Fiscal Year 2023-24 and 2024-25 budget. <br />Page 1 City of San Leandro Printed on 12/21/2023
