FISCAL IMPACT STATEMENT (IF THIS IS A BUDGET TRANSFER, YOU MUST ATTACH THE BUDGET ADJUSTMENT FORM):
The proposed amount to align city employees' salaries with the market is $1,200,000 plus benefits. We have included $850,000 in the FY 2024-2025 budget, which is posted in GL account 100-115-51000 under the General Fund City Administration department. The GL account name is Salary Classification. This amount is contingent upon the city council's approval of both the tentative and final budgets for FY 2024-2025. If approved, we plan to implement the new salary structure by December 2024. Additionally, we will conduct an analysis to review the budget capacity to determine if we can implement it before December 2024. Upon approval, we will need to process a budget transfer to allocate the funds accordingly to each department.
