WILLIAM A. HUSTON, CITY MANAGER
TO:
FROM:
HUMAN RESOURCES DEPARTMENT
SUBJECT:
RESOLUTION FOR SUPERVISORY EMPLOYEES
RESOLUTION FOR MANAGEMENT AND EXECUTIVE MANAGEMENT
SUMMARY:
Adoption of the attached Resolutions will allow staff to implement the reorganization of
the Police Department non-sworn management and supervisory employees as well as
provide salary and benefit adjustments for these and other supervisory, management
and executive management employees pursuant to previous Council direction, and
consistent with those salary and benefit adjustments provided to other City employee
groups.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt Resolution Nos. 04-22 and 04-23 amending the City's Classification and
Compensation Plans, granting equity salary and benefit adjustments ranging from 0% -
5% for classifications in the City's unrepresented Supervisory, Management and
Executive Management units. Adopting these Resolutions also authorizes staff to
implement the reorganization of the non-sworn Police Administrative Division, reclassify
incumbent personnel, and, if necessary, adjust the Fiscal Year 2004/2005 budget to
reflect the classification, salary and benefit changes approved.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Management and Executive Management - Approximately $16,850 (excluding roll-up
costs) over the remainder of this calendar year.
Supervisory - An approximate savings of $152, 280 (excluding roll-up costs) over the
remainder of the calendar year mainly due to the elimination of a Police Captain (retired
and left unfilled) and the reorganization and restructuring of the non-sworn Police
supervisors and managers.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
The City has approximately 30 employees in its unrepresented "Management" unit. This
unit is comprised of individuals that manage specific functional areas and/or sections of
Departments within the City. The unrepresented "Executive Management" unit is
comprised of the Assistant City Manger and six Department Heads. Additionally, the City
has a Supervisory unit that includes approximately eight individuals in non-sworn
supervisory classifications in the Police Department and those supervisors in our
Recreation department.
While most City employees are represented by unions and labor organizations, for
purposes of negotiating changes to wages, hours and working conditions, these units have
no such representation and rely upon the City Manager to ensure they are compensated in
a fashion equitable to represented bargaining units.
The last Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) received by employees in these units was in
September, 2002. Some of our other employee groups have concluded negotiations and
have since received equity adjustments pursuant to the Memorandums of Understanding
applicable to their units.
Pursuant to our Personnel Rules and Regulations, the City Manager is responsible for
preparing the City's Compensation Plan and for making recommendations to the City
Council after considering prevailing rates of pay for comparable work in public and private
employment, including consideration of conditions of work as well as basic pay; to the
current cost of living; to the suggestions of department heads; and to the City's financial
condition and policies.
Resolution 04-22 provides equity adjustments for individuals in the City's unrepresented
supervisory unit ranging of up to 2.25% as well as adjustments related to the
reclassification of incumbents in the unit. Adoption of the Resolution also eliminates the
classifications of Police Communications Coordinator and Police Records Coordinator and
incorporates the new classifications of Police Communications Supervisor, Police Records
Supervisor and Property and Evidence Supervisor. The changes in duties, responsibilities
and compensation is consistent with the job analysis conducted for the incumbents in
these classifications who have been performing duties outside of their current classification
for a number of months and are consistent with market survey data for similar
classifications. New classification specifications are included fo'r Council adoption as a
separate agenda item.
Resolution 04-23 also provides equity adjustments for individuals in the City's
management and executive management unit ranging from 0% to 5% as well as
adjustments related to the reclassification of incumbents in the unit. Adoption of the
Resolution also eliminates the classifications of Police Administrative Services Manager
and Police Support Services Supervisor and incorporates the new classifications of Police
Support Services Administrator and Police Support Services Manager.

The changes in duties, responsibilities and compensation for these classifications is also
consistent with the job analysis conducted for the incumbents in these classifications who
have been performing duties outside of their current classification for a number of months
and are consistent with market survey data for similar classifications and/or internal equity
considerations. New classification specifications are included for Council adoption as a
separate agenda item.
The Resolution for Management and Executive Management also provides for unit
employees to request a cash out of General Leave of up to eighty hours; this provision has
been languaged so that it is consistent with the provisions provided for Police
Management in their recently adopted MOU.
Neither Resolution provides any additional benefit increases and both Resolutions include
provisions for "Y" rating (maintaining current salary for a period of 12 months) for
individuals whose position is eliminated and involuntarily moved into a lesser paying
classification due to a reorganization.
The attached Resolutions follow the direction provided to the City Manager for these units
by the City Council. We anticipate the costs associated with the Resolutions can be
absorbed by current departmental budgets.
Staff believes these Resolutions will ensure that our unrepresented "Executive
Management", "Management" and "Supervisory" employees are treated appropriately
within the City's organizational structure and are provided fair and appropriate
compensation and benefits in recognition of the duties performed by these individuals.
Further, the increases in salary and benefits will enable us to continue to be competitive
in our efforts to recruit and retain highly qualified individuals in our unrepresented
"Executive Management", "Management" and "Supervisory" units.

S:\SUPERVISORY UNITlsupervisory resolution 021704.doc
Page 10114
When a regular unit employee is reduced because the position the employee
occupied is reclassified (resulting in an involuntary demotion), and the salary of the
employee is greater than the maximum rate in the new pay range, the salary of the
employee shall be designated as a Y-rate and shall not change during continuous regular
service until the maximum rate in the new pay range exceeds the salary of the employee
or until 26 pay periods have elapsed, whichever is sooner.
Section 3: DEFINITION
A "Supervisory" employee is broadly defined as an employee with authority to
hire, transfer, promote, discipline or assign other employees or effectively to recom-
mend such action and these employees are often excluded from the bargaining unit of
employees whom they supervise and prevented from being represented by the same
organization that represents employees supervised.
Section 4: EFFECTIVE DATES
The effective date of each Section is February 17, 2004, unless otherwise stated
herein.
Section 5: MAINTENANCE OF EXISTING BENEFITS
Except as provided herein, all compensation, hours and other terms and
conditions of employment for "Supervisory" employees shall remain in full force and
effect unless changed subsequent to meetings between the City and representatives of
the "Supervisory" employees and/or by a subsequent Resolution adopted by the City
Council.
Section 6: OVERTIME PAY
Unit classifications designated as non-exempt for purposes of the Fair Labor
Standards Act (FLSA), shall receive overtime pay in accordance with the rules which
govern non-exempt employees in the Tustin Municipal Employees Association general
employee bargaining unit (TMEA).
Section 7: BILINGUAL PAY
Unit employees shall be eligible to receive an additional $34.62 per pay period if
the following conditions are met:

late by reading/writing one or more languages other than English in the per-
formance of his/her public contact duties with the City.
B.
The employee must pass a language skills test approved or administered
by the City.
S:\SUPERVISORY UNITlsupervisory resolution 021704.doc
Page20114
The City Manager, or his designee, may limit the number of employees eligible based
on the needs of the City.
Section 8: UNIFORMS
The City will provide a uniform maintenance allowance of two-hundred and fifty
dollars ($250.00) annually for those employees assigned to the Police Department and
are required by the City to wear a uniform full time. This allowance is paid bi-weeky
over 26 pay-periods.
Section 9: COMPENSATORY TIME
Employees will be paid for all compensatory time in December of each year pro-
vided that an employee may retain a maximum of forty (40) hours in his/her account if
notice of such desired retention is submitted to the City.
Section 10: REST PERIODS
During each work shift of at least eight (8) hours two (2) fifteen (15) minute rest
periods will be scheduled. The scheduling of rest periods shall be at the discretion of
the employee's supervisor and no compensation will be provided for rest periods not
taken.
Section 11: STAND BY/COURT APPEARANCES
Unit employees in the Police Department, assigned to stand-by duty, shall be
compensated at the rate of one (1) hour of straight-time compensation for each eight

ances and two (2) hours straight time for afternoon (p.m. hours) appearances.
If a scheduled stand by is canceled and the employee is not advised of the can-
cellation before 6:00 p.m. on the day prior to the subpoena date, the employee shall
receive two hours of standby pay. A reasonable effort by the employer (e.g. phone call)
to notify the employee prior to 6:00 p.m. on the day prior, will negate the two hours of
standby pay. Employees who are scheduled for standby shall advise the department of
a telephone number where they can be either reached or a message can be left to
advise them of a cancellation.
Section 12: CALL BACK DUTY
Employees shall receive a minimum of two (2) hours overtime compensation

When a holiday occurs on a Sunday, the following Monday will be observed
instead. When a holiday occurs on a Saturday, the preceding Friday will be observed
instead. When a holiday falls on a Friday that is not a workday the holiday will be
observed on the following Monday. A holiday is equivalent in value to the workday of
the employee on the day the holiday occurs; however a holiday shall never have a
value that exceeds nine (9) hours. If an employee's scheduled day off falls on the
day of the holiday, he/she shall receive an amount of pay equivalent to his/her
scheduled work day. For each holiday, full-time regular and probationary personnel

whichever, in the judgment of the Human Resources Director, best serves the inter-
est of the City. Full-time regular and probationary personnel not assigned to shifts

uled day off falls on the day of the holiday, he shall receive nine (9) hours pay for
each day.
If the number of hours paid on a holiday is less than the hours that would be
paid if the employee worked his regular shift, credited compensatory time or general
leave will be used to ensure that hours paid will be equal to what he/she would
receive for his/her regular shift.
In order to be eligible to receive holiday pay, an employee must have worked,
or be deemed to have worked because of a lawful absence, the employee's regularly
scheduled day before and the regularly scheduled day after the holiday.
Should one of the holidays listed above fall during an employee's General
Leave period while an employee is lawfully absent with pay, the employee shall
receive holiday pay and no charge shall be made against the employee's accumu-
lated General Leave.
Designated regular part-time unit employees shall be eligible for holidays on
a pro-rata share based upon position allocation (i.e. a Y:z time employee shall receive
a 50% allocation; a % time employee shall receive a 75% allocation).
On December 1 of each year, regular and promotional probationary unit em-
ployees assigned to the Police Department may request a cash out of his/her holiday
credit for the following year in lieu of having time off. The request may only be for all
cash, all General Leave, or one-half cash/one-half General Leave. This notification
shall be in writing and is irrevocable. Administration of this program shall be consis-
tent with the program adopted for employees represented by Tustin Police Support
Services Association (TPSSA).

later) thereafter. Paydays shall occur on the Friday following the conclusion of each
pay period. The one exception to this is when that Friday is a City holiday; the payday
