SALARY ADJUSTMENTS FROM NOVEMBER 16, 1971
TO SEPTEMBER 1, 1971
WHEREAS, on November 16, 1971, at the conclusion of the Phase I Federal Wage
Board Stabilization Program, the City Council passed and adopted an amendment to
Resolution No. 58-281, which incorporates the Basic Compensation Plan, thereby
adjustimg the salary allocatloms for employees o£ the City of Santa Aha; and
WHEREAS, as the result of Phase I Federal Wage policies which became
effective August 15, 1971, the aforementioned salary adjustments became frozen
and were not allowed to be enacted on the customary and intended effective date
of September 1, 1971; and
WHEREAS, the development of the aforementioned salary adjustments were based
primarily on the extensive compilation of salary data, derived through the City's
traditional survey procedure, which clearly indicated the need for such adjustments
prior to the federal freeze order; and
Wt{EREAS, the recently amended Economic Stabilization Act provides that retro-
active payment of salaries and wages of no more than 7% is permitted where increases
were called for as the result of practices that were agreed to or were in effect
before the 90-day freeze was imposed on August 15, 1971, but were prevented from
being paid because of the freeze; and
WHEREAS, the recently amended Economic Stabilization Act further provides
that employers who made appropriations or otherwise raised funds to cover pay hikes
prevented by the freeze must pay the increase, regardless of the amount, retroactively
to the original intended date of the increase;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED: That the amendment to Resolution No. 58-281
which was passed and adopted on November 16, 1971, thereby adjusting the salary
allocations for employees of the City of Santa Aha, be made retroactive to September
1, 1971, in accordance with Economic Stabilization Act provisions.
BE IT FURTHERRESOLVED: That as the result of recent expansion of Phase II
guidelines, those job classes which were reduced 2½% from the original recommendations
due to previous and now superseded Phase II guideline restrictions are now authorized,
and that they be made retroactive to September 1, 1971, in accordance with Economic
Stabilization Act provisions.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED: That the granting of these retroactive pay increases
to September 1, 1971, shall be made effective March 16, 1972, in accordance with the
Federal Pay Board requirement for pre-notification.
