!I MEMORANDUM
!I TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Don Ashworth, City Manager
!I DATE: February 23 , 1989
SUBJ: Set Special Meeting Date:
!I - 1989 Position Classification Plan
- Comparable worth Plan
!I All of the items listed above are interrelated. Specifically,
the City must, under state statute, complete a comparable worth
study and file such with the state. This study must reflect each
of the City ' s positions in comparison to one another . The pri-
mary basis for the comparable North plan is the Position
!I Classification Plan . During 1988 and early 1989 , staff has been
working with Labor Relations Associates to assure compliance with
state law. Labor Relations Associates is the primary labor rela-
tions consultant for virtually every city within the metropolitan
area. Accordingly, that firm maintains the positions and
rankings of all cities, and is in a position to weigh differences
II in job descriptions between our various cities. Their report is
nearing completion and should be available for presentation to
the City Council within the next two to three weeks .
Given the scope of the items proposed to be discussed, a special
meeting date is recommended. Hopefully, the item could be kept
to a 1-1i hour time frame. Accordingly, that same evening could
il be an opportunity to meet with one of our other commissions or to
meet with the County Assessor regarding 1989/90 property
valuation goals ( see memorandum included with setting dates for
the board of review) . Staff would recommend this latter option .
Ill A special meeting date of March 20th is recommended. Again ,
recognizing the scope of discussion anticipated on March 20th,
staff would propose to have all enclosures for that meeting sent
I! out at least one week in advance of the meeting itself .
