RECOMMENDATION
Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution approving the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for the Mid-management, Teamsters Local 856 Unit dated July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2020.
Body
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
This MOU was negotiated March through June 2017, within the parameters authorized by the City Council, and ratified by the unit’s membership on June 23, 2017. Attached is the proposed MOU incorporating the agreed-upon terms and conditions of employment for the unit and a summary of the substantive terms of the MOU.
FUNDING
The MOU provides for across-the-board salary adjustments that total nine percent over a three-year contract. Specifically, adjustments are three percent of base pay effective the pay period including July 1, 2017, three percent effective the pay period including July 1, 2018, and three percent effective the pay period including July 1, 2019. The budget presented for Fiscal Year 2017-18 and Fiscal Year 2018-19 reflect these adjustments. Staff anticipates that salary savings due to vacancies should provide budgetary relief in Fiscal Year (FY) 2017-18 for the across-the-board salary adjustments effective July 1, 2017. However, Finance staff will present any budget adjustments for the Council’s consideration at the end of the Fiscal Year should that prove otherwise. The across-the-board increase effective July 1, 2017 has been reflected in the FY 2017-18 proposed budget presented to the Council on June 14, 2017.
CONCLUSION
It is recommended that the City Council approve the MOU for the Mid-management, Teamsters Local 856 Unit dated July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2020.
