Penny Curtis will complete salary step progression to the Clerical II midpoint on May 26, 1984. That midpoint will be the established one for 1984. This step program is intended as a training cycle to learn the specific job and other higher level duties. I I I I I I I I I I I Note #2- 2. Daryl Saathoff will complete salary step progression to the Heavy Equipment Operator midpoint on March 1, 1983. That midpoint will be the established one for 1983. 'This step program is intended as a training cycle to learn the particular job, and other duties which are of vital importance. Salary 'Incrementa~l Increases - We have five employees il~ this category, they are as follows: 1. Lloyd Schnelle, City Administrator 2. Michael Auspos, Police Chief 3. Clayton Berg, Building Official 4. Jeanne Moen, City Accountant 5. Sheila Beyer, Deputy Clerk The salary increases for these individuals were spread out over a 21 month period of time to lessen the financial load on the city. Consequently, these employees have not reached their midpoint, whereas other city employees have. This also means the above employees have carried a greater burden of the city by themselves. Note #3: Cost of Living - This year, as last year, we used data from certain financial institutions (lst Bank of Minneapolis, Northwestern National Bank etc.) to arrive at the Cost of Living Acceleration index. This is an elusive number to nail down. ** Personnel Committee recommended decreasing the C.O.L. from 7% to 5%. Note #4: Adjustments - These are based on the difference between the city's i982 adopted midpoint and the 1982 Metro Mean, which represents the average salaried positions of comparable cities. The report on the Metro Mean is done by the Stanton Corporation.
