5.j Staff Report-Step Increase-Hawkinson
Staff Report
Date of Meeting: December 18, 2018
To: City Council
From: Neil Soltis, City Administrator
Re: Step Increase, Hawkinson
Background:
Under the City’s Compensation 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.
Hawkinson began employment with the City of Scandia on December 5, 2016 and has
completed his 2nd of service to the City of Scandia.
Issue:
Should the City Council approve the step increase for Public Works Director Clerk Adam
Hawkinson?
Proposal Details:
Adam and I have reviewed his work performance over the past year as it relates to the duties
listed in the job description. Adam’s performance meets or exceeds the standards for all of the
performance attributes for the position and, consequently, merits the increase provided in the
City Compensation policy.
I recommend Hawkinson receive a step increase to Step 5 ($31.02/hr.) retroactive to his
anniversary date.
Options:
1) Approve the step increase effective December 6, 2018
2) Do not approve the step increase
Recommendation:
Option 1.
