MEMORANDUM

TO: Ronald Wm. Drathman, Assembly President

Assembly Members

THRU: Mayor Mike Navarre

FROM: Richard Campbell, Director General Services

DATE: February 5, 1999

SUBJECT: AMENDING KPB 3.04.130, 22.10.020, 22.10.060, 3.04.140, ALLOWING THE FLEXIBILITY TO IMPLEMENT A DIFFERENT PAY PLAN FOR ADMINISTRATIVE EMPLOYEES, THE BOROUGH CLERK AND DEPUTY CLERK

In the fall of 1996, the administration, with the concurrence of the assembly, had a compensation study performed by Todd Y. Allen and Associates. An update to the study was done in December of 1998. We will be proposing implementation of some of the recommendations through resolution at the February 16 assembly meeting. One of the proposals is to change the salary system from one that sets a single maximum amount to one that has a more flexible pay schedule. Certain portions of the borough code need modification to allow implementation of the new system. This ordinance is being introduced now in order that it will be up for hearing concurrent with consideration of the resolution dealing with the new system on February 16, 1999.

KPB 3.04.140 which indicates where legislative service pay and benefit plans will be contained, is being deleted since it is unnecessary.
