CITY O F SAN LUIS O B I S P O
FROM: Monica Irons, Director of Human Resources d�
SUBJECT: APPOINTED OFFICIALS' EVALUATIONS AND COMPENSATION
CAO RECOMMENDATION
Adopt resolutions adjusting the salary of the City Administrative Officer (CAO) and the City
Attorney(CA).
DISCUSSION
In 1999 Council began following a structured process to annually evaluate the job performance
of its two appointed officials, the CAO and CA. The process is facilitated by consultants who
collect input on the appointed officials' performance in the areas of leadership, interpersonal and
community relations, judgment, problem solving, communication, financial management,
planning, organization, and progress to major goals. The consultants summarize input for
Council from the CAO's direct reports and the CA's peers and internal customers. The
consultants then interview each Council member and draft the performance evaluation
documents prior to meeting with Council as a whole to finalize. Council also reviews and
approves goals for each appointed official during this annual process. The overall process takes
approximately six weeks to complete and provides appointed officials with constructive
feedback. Performance ratings resulting from this comprehensive process are the basis for pay
for performance increases per the City's guidelines.
Pay-for-Performance Increase
The Management Pay for Performance System was developed and adopted by Council in 1996.
The system was designed to recognize and reward excellent performance by management
employees, including appointed officials, and to provide an incentive for continuous
improvement and sustained high performance. Based on performance evaluation ratings, an
employee may be eligible for a pay for performance increase that moves an individual's salary
within a salary range (no changes to the range are proposed). The performance of the CAO and
CA was rated as "exceptional" during the 2008 performance evaluations, thus each is
recommended for a 6% pay-for-performance increase effective April 4, 2008. The salary range
and benefits shall remain the same.
FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed compensation adjustments are within the appointed officials' salary ranges and
within budget.
