Staff RepoVt
Date of Meeting: January 19, 2016
To: City Council
From: Neil Soltis, City Administrator
Re: Step Increase, Firkus
Background:
In July 2013 the City Council approved a 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.
Firkus began employment with the City of Scandia on January 12, 1996.
Issue:
Should the City Council approve the step increase for Treasurer Firkus?
Proposal Details:
On January 14, 2016 Treasurer Firkus and I sat down for her annual review. A review of work
completed over the past year as it relates to Firkus' job duties and the attainment of 2015 goals was
discussed and goals were established for the coming year.
I recommend Firkus receive a step increase to$20.31/hr. beginning on her anniversary date.
Options:
1) Approve the step increase effective January 12, 2016.
2) Do not approve the step increase
Recommendation:
Option 1.
