the second (2nd) payroll period following Council approval of this Agreement.
The assignment of classes to salary rate ranges is listed in Exhibit B, which is
included in the Full Time SEIU MOU and made a part hereof as though set forth
herein.
Application of Basic Compensation Plan. The salary rate ranges contained in Section 4.2 and
Exhibit "B" are monthly salary rate ranges. However, all employees working in
classifications of employment covered by this Agreement shall be compensated at an hourly
rate. The regular rate of pay shall be computed as provided for by the Fair Labor Standards
Act (FLSA).
Any hourly rate of pay, defined as the regular hourly rate of pay, shall be computed by
dividing the monthly salary rate by 173.33. In determining the hourly rate as herein
provided, computation shall be made to the nearest whole cent and a computation resulting
in an even one-half cent shall fix the rate at the next higher whole cent.
Probation. The probationary period shall be the hourly equivalent of one (1) year (2080
hours) from the date of appointment from an open eligible list (new hire) or a reappointment

has been hired. In special instances where such new employee possesses unique and
exceptional educational training and/or experience qualifications, the Department Head,
under whom the employee will serve, may submit a written request and justification to the
City Manager for authorization to place such new employee on Step "A," "B," "C," or "D"
within the allocated salary rate range, provided that such employee shall be assigned such
salary step upon the commencement of his or her service in the classification of employment
to which the salary rate range applies and such assignment having once been made shall
remain in effect until the said employee shall be entitled to advance to the next salary step
in accordance with the further provisions of this Article.
4.7
Service. The word "service" as used in this Agreement shall be deemed to mean continuous,
full time service (or an equivalent number of hours) in the classification in which the
employee is being considered for salary advancement, service in a higher classification or
service in a classification allocated to the same salary rate range and having generally similar
duties and requirements. A lapse of service by an employee for a period of time longer than
thirty (30) calendar days by reason of resignation, quit, or discharge, shall serve to eliminate
the accumulated length of service time of such employee for the purposes of this Agreement,
and such employee reentering the service of the City shall be considered as a new employee,
except when he or she is being or will be reappointed within one (1) year and placed in the
same salary step in the appropriate salary rate as he or she was at the time of termination of
employment. "Resignation, quit, or discharge" for purposes of this section shall mean
separating from Part Time Civil Service City employment altogether, not leaving one
position to accept appointment to another position in an unrelated classification outside the

Step "C" to Step "D," whichever is the next higher step to that on which the
employee has been previously paid, effective the first day of the month following the
date of completion of the length of service required for such advancement as
provided in Section 4.2 and Exhibit A hereof.
Merit Advances. An employee shall be considered for advancement from Step "D"
to Step "E" upon the completion of the required length of service as provided in
Section 4.2 and Exhibit A hereof; the effective date of such merit increase, if granted,
shall be on the first (1 ~t) day of the month following the completion of such required
length of service. Advancement to Step "E" may be granted only for continued

subsequent to his or her last salary advancement.
The Department Head, at least twenty (20) calendar days prior to the
anticipated completion of such employee's required length of service, shall
file with the City Manager a statement recommending the granting or denial
of the merit increase and supporting such a recommendation with specific
reasons therefore. The employee shall be notified by the Department Head
as to such recommendations and of the reasons therefore.
No advancement in salary above Step "D" shall become effective until
approved by the City Manager, except when placement on a salary step above
Step "D" results from promotion under the provisions of Section 4.10 of this
Article.
Length of Service Required When Advancement Denied. When an employee has
not been approved for advancement to merit Step "E," he or she may be reconsidered
for such advancement after the completion of 520 hours of additional service and

employee may be considered for readvancement under the same provisions as contained in
Subsection C of Section 4.8 above.
Promotional Salary Advancement. When an employee is promoted to a position in a higher
classification from a position in a lower classification in the same occupational career ladder,
he or she shall be reassigned to Step "AA" in the appropriate salary rate range for the higher
classification; provided, however, that if the base salary step currently being paid such
employee is already equal to or higher than said Step "AA," he or she will be placed in the
lowest step in the appropriate salary rate range as will grant that employee a minimum
increase of one (1) salary step (approximately 5%) over his or her current base salary step
exclusive of any pay additive or additives such as shift differential, assignment pay, special
skill pay or the like.

would have been entitled had his or her service time in the higher classification been
spent in the lower classification.

step permissible under Subsection C above, such recommendation shall be
considered a reduction in pay in addition to the demotion and shall be handled in
accordance with the provisions for salary reductions (Section 4.9, above).
Reallocation of Salary Rate Ranges. Any employee who is employed in a classification
which is reallocated to a different salary rate range from that previously assigned shall be
retained in the same salary step in the new salary rate range as he or she had previously held

advancement to the next higher step.

six (6) months, believes he or she is regularly and consistently performing duties and/or
responsibilities not in conformance with their classification concept or, duties and/or

the current base salary rate he or she normally receives, whichever is greater.
If an employee has worked ten (10) consecutive days during the term of this

xvork is duly and specifically authorized by the employee' s Department Head.
Special pay differentials, such as shift differential, bilingual pay, special skill
pay, etc., being paid to an employee prior to becoming eligible for Temporary
Upgrade Assignment Pay, will not be considered in computing the amount

unless the special circumstances upon which said additive is based am also
applicable to the Temporary Upgrade Assignment and the employee
otherwise meets the criteria established for such pay differential.

increases will be paid only to maintain the minimum five percent (5%)
differential above the salary to which an employee is entitled in his or her
permanent position.

through 5.5 above shall be made or revoked at the discretion of the Department Head.

International Conference of Building Officials (ICBO) or other certificate as a prerequisite
to hiring, either upon appointment or by the time of the employee's passage of probation

ARTICLE VI
6.0 OVERTIME
6.1
General Policy for Overtime Work. When it shall be determined to be in the public interest
for employees to perform overtime work, or in an emergency situation, the City Manager,
the Department Head, or a duly authorized representative of the City Manager or the
Department Head, may require an employee to perform overtime work.
6.2 Definition. Overtime work is defined as:
That authorized or required time worked in excess of eight (8) hours per day and/or
40 hours per week. A workweek is a fixed and regularly recurring period of 168
consecutive hours - 7 consecutive 24-hour periods - as designated by the appointing
authority. An employee's work schedule within the workweek shall not be changed
to avoid payment of overtime; provided, however, nothing shall abridge
management's right to establish and change work schedules and assignments in
accordance with the rights of management contained in Article XX, infra.
Work on any regularly scheduled non-work day ofwhichthere shall be two (2) per
week, if work on any regularly scheduled non-work day is worked at management's
direction.
6.3
Computation of Forty (40) Hour Workweek. In computing the forty (40) hour workweek,
the following type of work hours shall be included in the computation: actual work time,
jury/witness leave, and sick leave. If holiday leave or bereavement leave are subsequently
negotiated, said leave(s) would also be included in the computation. Any combination of
these work hours in excess of eight (8) hours per day or forty (40) hours per week shall
entitle the employee to overtime compensation.
However, paid time offfor vacation leave, compensatory time off, Union President's Leave
and Union Business Leave shall not be credited towards the forty (40) hour workweek, unless
the employee is required to work by management.
6.4 Compensation for Overtime.
The preferable method by which overtime shall be compensated is by monetary
payment, at one and one-half (I ½) times the employee's regular rate of pay, subject
21
6.5
to the provisions of Subsection "C" belo~v:
Should the Department Head determine that the best interests of the City will be
served thereby, he or his designee may permit an employee to be compensated for
overtime work by taking paid compensatory time off at the rate of one and one-half
(1 ½) times the employee's regular base rate of pay.
Employees shall have the option to convert a maximum of eighty (80) hours of time
and one-half (T ½) paid overtime (in compensation for 53 1/3 overtime hours
worked) to time and one-half (T ½) compensatory time off benefits. Such
compensatory time off shall be taken at the discretion of the employee subject to the
operational needs and staffing requirements of the department.
Time off with pay to compensate for overtime worked may be accumulated to a
maximum of eighty (80) hours.
Because each hour of overtime worked is programmatically accrued on a time and
one-half (T V=) basis, compensatory time off will be taken, and monetary payment
will be paid, on a straight-time basis. Also, upon termination, any earned, unused
compensatory time off ("time-on-the-books") will be paid on a straight-time basis.
Time off with pay to compensate for overtime worked may be taken in increments
as small as a half hour (½).
If compensatory time off is used in excess of that available, such excess
compensatory time off will be deducted from the next scheduled wage or salary
payment.
Time off with pay as compensation for overtime may not be granted or taken in
advance of the overtime work for which the time off compensates. Before
compensatory time off with pay may be taken, as herein provided, the overtime
worked must have been recorded on official payroll records at or about the time the
overtime work was performed. In the absence of such recording, no compensatory
time off with pay will be permitted.
Upon an employee's appointment to a position in which overtime may not be earned
or upon an employee's separation from employment with the City by resignation,
retirement, layoff or otherwise, he or she shall forthwith be compensated for any
overtime accumulated to the time immediately preceding such promotion or
separation.
No Effect on Other Benefits. Overtime work shall not apply to the earning of employee
benefits (retirement, vacation, and sick leave accrual), toward the completion of probationary
period, or to progression within salary rate range.
22
6.6
6.7
6.8
6.9
Overtime Work to be Minimized. To the extent that he or she is reasonably able to do so,
the Department Head or his or her designee shall arrange work programs to minimize
overtime work. Necessary overtime work shall be apportioned among employees of like
classification and assignment.
Call-Back Duty. Any employee covered by this Agreement who is recalled to active duty
from off-duty, shall be entitled to overtime pay at the rate of one and one-half (1 1/2) times
the normal hourly pay rate for such employee for time actually worked after reporting to the
place of duty, or three (3) hours pay at the normal rate of pay, whichever is greater.
Declaration of State of Emergency. Upon the occurrence of fire, flood, earthquake, strike,
riot or other catastrophe or emergency which directly affects City operations or the welfare
of the City's citizens, the City Manager may declare a state of emergency to exist. Upon the
declaration of a state of emergency, the City Manager may require any or all regular
employees of the City to work overtime or off-shift as he shall determine, to protect life and
property ~vithin the City.
Applicability of Fair Labor Standards Act. The parties agree that if the applicability of the
Fair Labor Standards Act to local governmental entities is eliminated by either legislative or
judicial action, they shall meet and confer regarding any proposed changes to this
Agreement; however, no such changes shall be made except on mutual agreement.

ARTICLE IX
9.0 VACATION
9.1
Purpose. It is the policy of the City to grant employees vacation leave in order to provide
them with a break in their regular work schedule and this purpose will be used as a guide
in the administration of the provisions of this Article.
23
9.2 Administration.
Each part time civil service employee shall be entitled to, and shall earn, 30 working
hours of vacation per year. Said vacation leave shall be credited to the employee in
two increments of 15 hours each on January 1 and July 1, respectively, each year.
An employee who has completed less than one yem" s service during the calendar year
shall receive a proportionate fraction in accordance with the amount of service to his
or her credit during the year; provided, however, no employee shall be entitled to or
receive payment for any vacation until he or she has completed six (6) months of
continuous service.
On or after the first (1st) day of the month following completion of six (6) months of
continuous full-time service, an employee may be allowed to take all or a
proportionate fraction of his or her earned vacation, subject to scheduling approval
of the employee's supervisor.
Limit: Vacation leave shall not be cumulative from year to year. Vacation time off
may be taken in increments as small as one-half (½) hour with fractional usage
rounded upward to the next higher multiple of one-half (1/2).
E. Computation of Regular Vacation.
Should an employee be confined to a hospital for sickness or injury while on
authorized vacation, each full day of such confinement, when confirmed by
a physician's statement and approval of the Department Head, may be
deduced from the computation of vacation expended and charged against the
employee's accumulated sick leave.
No employee shall have a right to accumulate or split his or her vacations, but
the same may be allowed or required by the Department Head. The time at
which an employee shall take his or her vacation shall be determined by the
Department Head, with due regard for the wishes of the employee and
particular regard for the needs of the service.
ARTICLE X
10.0 OTHER LEAVES OF ABSENCE
10.1
Sick Leave.
A. Definition. Except as otherwise provided below, sick leave shall be deemed to mean
absence from duty of an employee because of illness, injury, medical, or dental
24

position, and shall be deemed to include time in quarantine resulting from exposure
to a contagious disease.
Administration. Each employee shall be entitled to, and shall earn, 30 working hours
per year. Said sick leave shall be credited to the employee in two increments of 15
hours each, on January 1 and July 1, respectively, each year.
Authorized Only When Necessary. Use of sick leave by City employees shall be
authorized as follows:
Sick leave is not a right which an employee may use at his or her discretion,
but shall be allowed only in cases of actual sickness and disability, or
necessity, as authorized in Subsection J below.
When an accepted industrial illness or injury has caused an employee's
absence, for which benefits are required under the State Workers'
Compensation Insurance and Safety Act, paid sick leave will be allowed such
employee during the first three (3) days of the statutory waiting period. If the
workers' compensation related illness or injury continues past the initial three
(3) consecutive days, the employee will have the three (3) used sick days
recredited to his or her account. Paid sick leave will continue until the fourth
(4th) day when the City pays the employee workers' compensation benefits for
such illness or injury. If the employee does not have sufficient accumulated
sick leave at the commencement of such industrial illness or injury, they will
be advanced sick leave for this purpose. Subsequently, the City will deduct
an equal amount previously advanced from any sick leave accrued by the
employee until the total amount is recovered. If the employee terminates
before recovery of all advanced sick leave, the City will deduct the
unrecovered cost of sick leave from such terminated employee's final
paycheck, to the extent possible.
Commencing with Council approval of this Agreement, the City may
authorize employees to use sick leave, vacation, or compensatory time for
approved workers' compensation medical appointments as specified herein.
The City may authorize use of such leave for City approved medical
appointments whenever such appointments cannot be secured outside the
employee's regular workday, and salary continuation or workers'
compensation benefits are not available.
Limit. Sick leave may be accumulated year to year to a maximum of 100 hours.
Sick leave usage of less than a full day shall be charged in minimum increments of
one-half (½) hour, with fractional usage rounded upward to the next higher multiple
of one-half (½).
25
Extended. The City Manager may grant leave up to six (6) months without pay to an
employee who has exhausted all of his or her accrued sick leave if the City physician
or a licensed physician designated by the City Manager indicates that the employee
will be sufficiently recovered to return to his or her employment within a six (6)
month period. Prior to the expiration of the additional time, the employee may return
to his or her position provided that the employee has a certificate from one of the
above mentioned physicians stating that the employee is able to perform all the duties
of his or her position without qualification. In addition to the above, the City
Manager may grant a further extension not to exceed a total of one (1) year without
pay.
Extension by Use of Accrued Compensator,/Time Off: After an employee's sick
leave has been exhausted, he or she may be granted permission to use any unused
compensatory time off benefits.
Notice. The employee taking sick leave shall notify his or her immediate supervisor
either prior to or within four (4) hours after the time he or she is scheduled to report
for duty, or as otherwise established by departmental regulations. When the absence
is more than three (3) consecutive ~vorking days, the employee must present to his
or her Department Head a physician's certificate stating the cause ofillness and that,
in the physician's opinion, the employee could not report to work because of such
illness or injury and that the employee is sufficiently recovered to safely return to
work. Such certificate shall be transmitted to the Executive Director of Personnel
Services with the report of the employee's return to work.
A physician's certificate or other satisfactory written evidence of actual illness or
injury may be required after an absence of any duration less than three (3) days.
Denial. No employee shall be entitled to sick leave with pay while absent from duty
because of sickness or injury purposely self-inflicted or caused by willful
misconduct; or, sickness or disability sustained while engaged in employment other
than employment by the City, for monetary gain or other compensation, or by reason
of engaging in business or activity for monetary gain or other compensation.
Excess Usage. If sick leave is used in excess of that due and available an employee,
such excess sick leave will first be deducted from any available compensatory time
off benefit; second, deducted from the next scheduled salary payment.
Necessity Leave. Each employee shall be afforded the opportunity to use up to 15
hours of sick leave per calendar year, on a non-cumulative basis, as personal
necessity leave. All of this personal necessity leave may be used to attend to an
illness of a child, parent, or spouse of the employee. As used in this section, "child"
means a biological, foster, or adopted child, a stepchild, a legal ward, or a child of a
person standing in loco parentis; "parent" means a biological, foster, adoptive parent,
a stepparent, or a legal guardian; and "immediate family" means any member of the

accident to member of the employee's immediate family; b) childbirth; c) to cope

necessary to restore the employee to his or her former position.
Industrial Leave. Any period of time during which an employee is required to be absent from
his or her position by reason of an industrial injury or industrial illness for which he or she

absence without pay for any temporary disability resulting from pregnancy, miscarriage,
childbirth or recovery therefrom. Such reasonable leave of absence shall not exceed four (4)

decision; meet and confer with the Union over the impact of the decision; will seriously

seniority in the affected classification shall be laid off first.
In lieu of layoff; an employee may elect to work in a lower classification, in which
he has served, providing that classification is within the same job family/career
ladder. In that event, the employee's length of service in the next lower classification

seniority shall be used to bump down into the next lower classification. This method
of combining seniority shall be applied to subsequent louver classifications.

BASIC SALARY & WAGE SCHEDULE
EXHIBIT A
Page 1 of 2
The City's Basic Salary and Wage Schedule provides for a number of ranges of pay rates (salary rate ranges) each
comprised of six pay steps or rates for SEIU employees. The salary rate ranges are identified by a three digit number
and steps by letters AA, A to E inclusive. For SEIU Part Time Civil Service employees, the purpose of each step and
the length of service required for advancement within the rate range are summarized as foIlows:
Purpose:
AA Step
A Step
B Step
C Step
D Step
E Step
Nonmal beginning pay rate.
Automatic Increase. Also optional hiring rate.
Automatic Increase. Also optional hiring rate.
Automatic Increase. May also be maximum hiring rate for certain classes.
Automatic Increase, and is maximum hiring rate.
Merit Rate.
Required Length of Service for Part Time Civil Service Employees:
AA to A
A to B
B to C
C to D
D to E
After i040 hours' completed service.
After 2080 hours' completed service.
After 2080 hours' completed service.
After 2080 hours' completed service.
After 3120 hours' completed service.
In the following salary schedule matrix, each salary range is identified by a three digit number. The first two digits are
listed in the first vertical column on the left and the third digit is listed horizontally across the top and identifies the
appropriate column. This three digit range number locates the "AA" step of the range, which is the first of the 6 steps.
Steps "A," "B," "C," "D," and "E" are found in the column directly below the "AA" step. For example, the "AA" step
of Range No. 401 is found to be $1476 by moving down the left column to the number 40 (the first two digits of the
Range N o.), then horizontally to column 1 (the third digit of the Range No.). The "AA" step of $1476 has the remaining
steps shown directly beneath it; thus the full, six step range is 1476-1549-1627-1708-1793-1883. In the same number,
Range No. 455 is found to be 1921-2017-2118-2223-2334-2451.
