Adding an annual average benefit rate of 32.18% to reflect the variable fringe benefit costs,
which rise with salary, the total added costs for salaries and fringe benefits for General Fund
positions are $1,948,700 and total Measure Z costs are $259,100. By comparison, total Section
186 salary increase for this group in FY 07-08 was $923,700.
The Law Enforcement Trainee salary will be changed to $4,225 per month ($24.3750 per hour),
which is 80% of Step A for the Police Officer (P-I) salary. Resolution No. 6429 will be updated
to reflect the revised salaries.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The City's FY 2008-2009 approved budget included $2.4 million in General Government for all
Charter 186 anticipated salary increases. The amount of Charter 186 salary increases outlined
above for the Police Safety Unit in the General Fund is $1,948,700. This action will leave a
balance of $451,300 for the remaining 186 salary increases. Funding for Measure Z position
increases was factored into the Measure Z budget.
Recommendation:
I. That the salaries for Police Department Ranges P-I (Police Officer), P-2 (Detective/
Corporal), P-3 (Sergeant) and Law Enforcement Trainee be established, effective August
1,2008.
2. Authorize the Human Resources to amend Resolution No. 6429 to reflect the above
action.
