CITY MANAGER CONTINUED TO FILE NUMBER RECOMMENDED ACTION Adopt a resolution that amends the City's Basic Management Classification and Compensation plan (No. 91-066) and amends the Fiscal Year 2006-07 Annual Budget. DISCUSSION The Assistant City Manager performs highly responsible administrative work assisting the City Manager in planning, coordinating and directing the activities of the City and serving as the City Manager in his absence. As this position is instrumental to the effective management of City operations, the salary rate assigned to this classification must be competi ti ve in the labor market and internally equitable in order to attract and retain qualified candidates. A recent salary review reveals that the Assistant City Manager's salary is below the market average for comparable positions and is also out of alignment in relation to other executi ve management classifications. As a result, the City Manager is requesting a 5% salary increase for this classification. FISCAL IMPACT The cost for the proposed increase is $6,770 for the remainder of the fiscal year.
