MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
Mark McNeill, City Administrator
FROM: Kris Wilson, Assistant City Administrator
SUBJECT: Pay Plan for Part -Time, Temporary and Seasonal Employees
DATE: January 13, 2011
ZSENT
Introduction
The Council is asked to adopt the attached resolution establishing and restating hourly wage rates
for part-time, temporary and seasonal employees.
Background
The City did not budget for or plan a general wage increase for the positions listed on the part-
time, temporary and seasonal pay plan this year. However, there is a need to consolidate recent
Council actions and a new staff recommendation into a cleaned -up pay plan document for clarity
and record - keeping purposes.
The attached pay plan for part -time, temporary and seasonal employees reflects existing pay
rates for these positions, including the new Grade I for summer seasonal positions in the Public
Works Department that was adopted by Resolution 6992, in March of 2010.
Secondly, every year the City has employed two students through programs sponsored by
Shakopee Sr. High School — one from the Work Based Learning program is employed as a
Mechanic's Helper in the shop and another in a work skills program provides basic cleaning
services at the Community Center. The hiring for both positions is coordinated through the
school and both students work afternoon hours on a part-time basis. In recent years, these
positions have both been part of Grade E and paid $11.19 per hour for the 9 or 12 month period
for which they worked for the City. Entering the current school year, we were obligated to
prioritize these positions against numerous competing budget demands. In both cases the school
district encouraged the City to maintain its participation in these programs and the Department
Head felt there was value in doing so. However, it was felt that the wage offered by the City was
higher than necessary given the educational benefit provided and current economic conditions.
Therefore City staff proposed to the staff coordinators from the school district that the two
positions be maintained, but at minimum wage instead of the $11.19 per hour previously paid.
Individuals have been hired for the positions and Council is asked to finalize this arrangement by
5. e.
adopting the attached pay plan with the new Grade J for "High School Sanctioned Work
Experience Programs" at minimum wage (currently $7.25 per hr.). The listing of Mechanic's
Helper under Grade E is subsequently being removed.
Relationship to Vision
This is a housekeeping item (F).
Requested Action
If the Council concurs, it is asked to offer Resolution Number 7079, a resolution amending the
Pay Plan for Part-Time, Temporary and Seasonal Employees of the City of Shakopee, and move
