Staff RepoVt
Date of Meeting: May 20, 2014
To: City Council
From: Kristina Handt, City Administrator
Re: Step Increase, Kieffer
Background:
In July 2013 the City Council approved City of Scandia Compensation Policy (Resolution 07-16-13-
03). Under the policy, each year on an employee's anniversary date following a satisfactory
performance review and with approval by the City Council, the employee is eligible to receive a step
increase.
Kieffer began employment with the City of Scandia on May 14, 2012.
Issue:
Should the City Council approve the step increase for Public Works Director Kieffer?
Proposal Details:
On May 14, 2014, the City Administrator and Public Works Director discussed his work
performance over the past year and established goals for 2014-2015.
After reviewing Kieffer's performance for the entirety of the past year, I am recommending Kieffer
receive a step increase. His new annual salary would be at a Step 5 ($64,519).
Options:
1) Approve the step increase effective May 14, 2014
2) Do not approve the step increase
Recommendation:
Option 1.
