SUBJECT: 2010 Wages and Salaries for Part-Time Fire Department Employees
DATE: December 10, 2009
Introduction
The City Council is asked to adopt the attached resolution, setting pay for the part-time
employees and officers ofthe Shakopee Fire Department for calendar year 2010.
Background
Earlier this year, Fire Chief Rick Coleman presented the Council with a slightly revised
organizational chart for the Fire Department and updated or revised job descriptions
corresponding to that organizational chart. Chief Coleman's recommendations for filling those
positions are presented as a separate item on this agenda. This item is a request for Council to
authorize the annual salaries for these part-time officer positions, as well as the hourly wage for
paid-on-call firefighters.
The annual salary for part-time officers is paid in twelve monthly installments and is in addition
to the hourly wage these individuals receive for attending calls, drills and meetings like any other
firefighter.
The recommended 2010 salaries for the 13 part-time officer positions are as follows:
Officer Title # of Salary
Officers
Assistant Chief 1 $5,100
Deputy Chief of Training 1 $4,590
Deputy Chief of Engineering 1 $4,590
Captain 2 $2,350
Lieutenant 4 $2,040
Station Engineer 2 $1,730
SCBA Coordinator 2 $1,530
It should be noted that the 13 part-time officer positions listed above come from among the 46
paid-on-call firefighters authorized in the 2010 budget; they are not in addition to the 46. The
proposed hourly wage for paid-on-call firefighters is $10.00 per hour, with a one hour minimum
and all hours round up to the next full hour. This reflects no change from the 2009 hourly wage.
Budget Impact
Funding for these wages and salaries is included in the Fire Department's 2010 budget.
Relationship to Vision
A pay scale that attracts well-qualified candidates to the Shakopee Fire Department contributes
to the effective operation of the department and in turn, a high quality of life for residents of
Shakopee (Goal B).
Requested Action: If the Council concurs, it should offer Resolution No. 6974, a resolution
adopting the 2010 Pay Plan for Part-Time Employees of the Shakopee Fire Department, and
move its adoption.
