<br /> <br /> A. SAMA Middle Management Classifications. An employee appointed to a Middle <br /> Management classification shall be compensated at any rate within the lower third of <br /> the X17--step salary rate range (Steps "1" through T 16') for their job classification <br /> as authorized by the Appointing Authority. When economic conditions, unusual <br /> employment conditions, or exceptional qualifications of a candidate for employment <br /> indicate a higher rate would be in the City's best interest, the City Manager may <br /> authorize hiring at a higher rate in the salary rate range but this higher rate generally <br /> shall not be above the midpoint. <br /> B. SAMA Administrative Management Classifications. An employee appointed to an <br /> Administrative Management classification may be placed by the Appointing Authority at <br /> any step within the applicable five (5) step salary rate range (Steps "A" through "E") in <br /> the schedule to which the classification has been assigned through adoption of this <br /> Agreement, provided that such employee shall be assigned such salary step upon the <br /> commencement of his or her service in said classification and such assignment having <br /> once been made shall remain in effect until the said employee shall be entitled to <br /> advance to the next salary step in accordance with the further provisions of this <br /> Article as set forth below. <br /> 5.7 Service. The word "service" as used in this Agreement shall be deemed to mean continuous, <br /> full-time service in the classification in which the employee is being considered for salary <br /> advancement, service in the higher classification or service in a classification allocated to <br /> the same salary rate range and having generally similar duties and requirements. <br /> Notwithstanding the above, employees in classifications designated as Administrative <br /> Management (AM) who are hired after the first (1'T) working day of the month shall not be <br /> credited with time in service for that month when determining the length of service for <br /> salary advancement. <br /> A lapse of service by an employee for a period of time longer than ten (10) calendar days, <br /> by reason of resignation, quit, or discharge, shall serve to eliminate the accumulated length <br /> of service time of such employee for the purpose of this Agreement, and any such employee <br /> reentering the service of the City shall be considered as a new employee, except that he or <br /> she may be reappointed as provided in Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC) Chapter 9-114 and <br /> may be placed in the same salary step in the appropriate salary rate range as he or she was <br /> at the time of termination of employment. <br /> 5.8 Advancement Within Ranges. <br /> 5# e1T}: ThE'.'PB--rs~rcreores*vcrroh2va vci-rvr-mcrrcc~cscv cv'axrvarrvY'1 <br /> SAMA Contract Extension: 2010-14 Page 4 <br /> 55A-7 <br />
