Flores and Members of City Council VIA: Brenda Armijo, Acting City Clerk FROM: Nicholas A. Gradisar, Mayor Marisa Pacheco – Human Resources Director AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 6-5-16 OF CHAPTER 5, OF SUBJECT: TITLE VI OF THE PUEBLO MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO THE FY 2019 CLASSIFICATION AND PAY PLAN BY ESTABLISHING THE PAY SCALE FOR THE CHIEF OF STAFF AND REMOVING THE PAY SCALE FOR DEPUTY MAYOR SUMMARY: Attached for consideration is an amended Pay Plan Ordinance that reflects the addition of the pay rate and salary schedule for the Chief of Staff position and the removal of the pay rate for Deputy Mayor. PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: In December 2018, City Council approved the annual Salary Ordinance for the 2019 fiscal year. BACKGROUND: Honorable Mayor Nicholas A. Gradisar requests to adjust department staffing within the Mayor’s Office by the addition of a new position titled “Chief of Staff” which shall be an Assistant Deputy Mayor in the Unclassified Service. The appointed Chief of Staff will provide critical staff support to the Mayor’s office by directing, managing and overseeing the activities of various City departments. The Chief of Staff will assist the Mayor in developing and guiding strategy, creating and executing policy development, planning fiscal and budget management and will develop an effective organizational structure among other complex management responsibilities. Section 8-8 of the City Charter requires the Human Resources Director to provide a Uniform Schedule of Pay for the Classified Service, which shall be approved by the Mayor and submitted to City Council. The recommended salary range is identical to that previously approved for the Deputy Mayor classification. It is the intent that the role of Deputy Mayor shall be limited to what is required by Charter which generally concerns succession to Mayor in case of any vacancy. As such, no additional pay is anticipated for such appointment other than that salary received by the Department Head who is so appointed. The removal of the pay rate for Deputy Mayor reflects this change. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: Funding for the salary for the position of Chief of Staff will come from diverting the funding associated with the Deputy Mayor position in the 2019 general fund budget in the approved amount of $100,000. No monthly salary is provided with respect to appointment to the position of Deputy Mayor. All compensation received by the Department Director appointed this this position shall be continued No additional funding is required. BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: None. STAKEHOLDER PROCESS: None. ALTERNATIVES: None. This is the recommendation of the Mayor. RECOMMENDATION: Approval of the Ordinance.
