MINNESOTA 55068 c7G/i'L 612-423-4411 ir�� # �+E TO: Mayor Napper Council Members Willcox, Wippermann, Oxborough, Klassen FROM: Susan M. Johnson, City Clerk , DATE: Jul 13 1990 � Y r RE: Procedure for Salary and Benefit Changes Attached for your adoption under the Consent Agenda is a Procedure for Salary and Benefit Changes which would become a p�rt of the administrative personnel policy. Since assuming the position of City Clerk and taking on more of the personnel responsibilities, it has been my goal to put together a procedure where all salary and benefit changes would be initiated from my office. Currently the department heads have the responsibility of making sure all salary and benefit changes are sent to the payroll department. Deputy Finance Director Jeff May and ,I have met over the last few months and have agreed the proposed system would be more efficient. We feel having only one person assigned to initiate changes will allow the forms to end up in Jeff's office in a more timely manner and in a consistent fashion that will assist the payroll department. Please be advised that having the changes coming from my office is basically the only change being made with regards to salary and benefit changes. The procedure for computing when payroil increases, vacation rate increases and vacation accrual maximums are effective has been in place for several years; except now it will be in writing and formally adopted. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. � : y .
