RECOMMENDATIONS The Municipal Code, Section 2.20.030 and the Civil Service Rules, both require certain actions be taken when allocating a position to a pay range. Included in those actions are the consideration of pay rates of other similar or related classes; the availability of personnel to do the job; prevailing rates, both 'locally and in other similar jurisdictions; and finally, City financial policy and economic circumstances. The recommendation for allocation of Parks Operations Supervisor to range 18.5 is made based on the above requirements and discussed below. Duties and Responsibilities: Duties and responsibilities have previously been mentioned and are specifically enumerated on the attached class specification. To analyze comparability, a factoring analysis was conducted, which indiated range 18.5 as appropriate. Comparisons to other positions within the City Civil Service classes were made and the WWTP Process Control Supervisor allocated at range 18.5 is comparable to the Parks Operations Supervisor. Both are professional level positions in their respective fields and both perform a wide scope of responsibilities in a variety of administrative functions requiring a significant body of knowledge. Both function under limited supervision, exercise considerable judgement, but have varying responsibilities W13 A3 410 in their specialized areas. Both supervise operational and maintenance of approved work and schedule crew activities. Availability: The availability of skilled individuals to fill this position is limited as it requires extensive experience in the Parks & Recreation field, plus a background in interviewing, supervising, purchasing and budgeting. To obtain skilled applicants, we would have to draw from our own Parks Division or from other Parks & Recreation departments where applicants would have the necessary knowledge, skills and experience to perform the duties of the position. Prevailing Rates (Local): There are no positions in the parks and recreation field locally which are comparable to the proposed classification. Yakima County has a Parks Maintenance and Operations Manager which is very similar but does not match the Parks Operations Supervisor because it is a working supervisor, who weekly performs the duties with the maintenance staff. Prevailing Rates (Similar Jurisdictions): The 15 municipalities with which we standardly compare ourselves to were contacted and included: Auburn, Bellingham, Bremerton, Edmonds, Kennewick, Kent, Longview, Olympia, Renton, Richland, Vancouver, Walla Walla, Pasco, and Redmond, as well as Yakima County. In most cases, there were no jurisdictions which had positions which were matches to Parks Operation Supervisor. In most of the jurisdictions, the positions had responsibilities similar to the Parks Operation Supervisor and can be used as comparables. The comparables generally did not have anything to do with irrigation and did not meet with the Parks and Recreation Commission. The comparables are listed below. The other jurisdictions did not have matches mainly because they were a part of the administrative management staff or they performed other technical duties. Jurisdiction Monthly Salary Bremerton 2113 - 2583 Edmonds 2296 - 2807 Longview 2404 - 2988 Olympia 2379 - 2892 Redmond 2680 - 3,191 Renton 2479 - 3017 Richland 2200 - 2600 Vancouver 2144 - 2736 Walla Walla 1830 - 2336 Pasco 2000 - 2206 Average salary of compariables 2252 - 2736 City of Yakima proposed salary 2206 - 2655 Financial Policy and Economic Considerations: This is the final consideration made in recommending the compensation level for the Parks Operations Supervisor. Because of the classification review which was completed in 1979, considerable emphasis should be placed on the factoring analysis and comparison with City positions. The Parks W13 A4 4110 Operation Supervisor was factored with the City's standard system and factored to a pay range of 18.5. • The foregoing establishes the background data necessary to recommend a level of compensation for Parks Operations Supervisor. The substantial data is the comparsion to other City positions along with the factoring analysis which indicate range 18.5 as appropriate. Based upon the foregoing, it is my recommendation that Parks Operations Supervisor be allocated to range 18.5 ($2206 - $2655) per month.

CITY OF YAKIMA CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION October 6, 1908 • M l N U T E S The regular meeting of the City of Yakima Civil Service Commission convened on this date at 9:30 a.m. In attendance were Commissioners Clay Gerstenberger, Phil Posada and Tim Carlson, Secretary/Chief Examiner Diana A]listom, Personnel Officer Archie Sutton, Employment and Training Specialist Sheryl Smith, AFSCME Representative Ken Coffin and AFSCME Local 1122 President Terry Wakefield. The minutes of the July 7, 1988 regular meeting were approved as written. OLD BUSINESS None. NEW BUSINESS The first item discussed was the City's proposed rule change to Chapter 5, Section L "Removal from the Register." Sutton explained that the Police Department has had situations where a candidate did not pass the background check, but could not be taken off the register because the Civil Service Rules did not allow for it. Currently, the Police 4111 Department has a register with two names on it and neither candidate passed the background check. The City and the Legal Department have prepared a rule change that would solve the problem at hund. Coffin felt the current register for Police Bilingual DA II should be revoked. He also felt the job description should be modified to let an applicant know they must pass a standard background check. Carlson felt the phrase "standard background check" was vague and should have better clarification. Pleas Green explained that a background check covers a number of areas such as drugs, credit, history, emotional problems, integrity, former employers, polygraph test and psychological evaluation. Candidates are sent a letter explaining that they failed the background check and what their rights of appeal are. It's important that the Police Department have the ability to pass over candidates who cannot pass the background check. Gerstenberger moved to accept the proposed rule as written. Posada seconded the motion. A vote was called. With Gerstenberger and Posada voting to approve the motion and Carlson voting to disapprove the motion, the motion was passed 2 to 1. The next item discussed was Ralph Javins' proposed rule change to Chapter 8, Section B. Javins explained that the consequences of Section Bl that allows discipline for two successive personnel evaluations — �" indicating unsatisfactory or overall performance requires improvement is not the same as the relief granted. In Section D an employee is allowed to appeal any overall unsatisfactory performance evaluation, but not requires improvement evaluations. Javins also explained that over a long period of time he has received several "requires improvement" MINUTE Cl 4110 evaluations. He felt they were controversial and that there had never been an outside neutral third party review. He felt these evaluations #\ cost him promotions for which he is qualified and a cut in pay with no legal recourse to appeal the evaluations. He handed out a letter sent to him from the Director of Public Works which he feels had a 4 11/ detrimental effect. Carlson explained that he felt Javins could appeal based on Chapter 9, Section F which states ... "any permanent employee who is reduced, suspended, demoted or discharged may appeal such action as provided in Chapter 10." Coffin felt Javins did point out an area in the Civil Service Rules that is conflicting. He also felt that an evaluation should be immediately appealable because over time employees leave and people forget and it is hard to gather the information. Carlson felt that Coffin had a point that over a period of time, evidence is harder to gather, Carlson felt that if every factor that leads to a negative in someone's personnel record is subject to appeal to the Commission, they could be working full -time to settle disputes between management and employees. Coffin feels the evaluation process . should not be tied to the discipline process. The evaluation process should be a communication tool between the supervisor and the employee to assist the employee to perform better and more efficiently. He felt that if an evaluation is going to be used as a reason for a disciplinary action, they become written reprimands into the file. That is what an unsatisfactory evaluation is and that what becomes appealable to the Commission. The Union is not taking a position other than that the two provisions need to be brought into line. If a "needs improvement" evaluation can be cause for discipline, it should also be appealable or if it's not appealable, it shouldn't be cause for discipline. Carlson 410 felt that employees have a right to appeal under the current rules. Gerstenberger explained that the Civil Service Rules give an employee the right to review, respond to and sign an evaluation for agreement or disagreement. Coffin still felt there was a discrepency in the rules. Javins explained that he had written objections to his eight "needs improvement" evaluations and they had not been reviewed or given a judgment as to whether the claimed act did or did not occur. Carlson asked if everyone agreed that the question is "when do you have a right to a hearing before this Commission ". Carlson feels the time is when the employee is disciplined, reduced, etc. as explained in the rules. He explained to Javins that he is currently able to appeal under the Civil Service Rules. The Commission took no action on Ralph Javins' request which is a fo nn of denial. The next item discussed was the Union's proposed rule change to Chapter 4, Section 02, retroactive pay. Vanek explained that he wrote a memorandum which was included in the agenda packet addressing the proposed rule change. The proposed rule would give a person who applies for reclassification retroactive pay back to 90 days after the reclass was submitted. Vanek felt that the sole authority to set wage rates and the times they are effective is left up to the City Council with the Civil Service Commission being able to make recommendations. Carlson clarified that the Commission function is at this point merely to make recommendations to the City Council regarding salaries. Carlson felt that the Commission has the authority to recommend retroactive pay to the Council. Vanek felt this would create a false expectation on the part of the employee who reads the Civil Services rules without the MINUTE C2 . ^ interpretation of the Charter in it. Coffin explained that the rule would apply whether it was for a pay increase or decrease. He felt that City Council approves an ordinance which puts a position in a pay range. ����N The City Council does act upon a level of pay an individual receives —�- once they go into the pay range. The Union felt that the authority to establish pay for an employee lies in the negotiations between the Union and the City. Vanek explained that the whole matter is in dispute because the City filed a lawsuit that addresses whether there is an obligation to the City to bargain and to what extent on the setting of wages. Carlson questioned whether the Commission has jurisdiction to hear the issue if it is a subject of a pending lawsuit. Posada motioned to postpone the matter until the pending lawsuit has been finalized. Carlson made the amendment of "or until such time as Union's counsel waives the legal context any right to claim that this action is outside of authority, lacks jurisdiction or gives a legal opinion that the Commission, its members and the City have no legal obligation outside of that particular issue to deal properly with it." Posada accepted the amendment. Gerstenberger seconded the motion. Coffin explained that he is unaware of any lawsuit having been filed. Vanek explained that the lawsuit was filed on October 5th and they will attempt to get service this week. Carlson amended the motion to table this particular issue until next month. Gerstenberger seconded the motion. Vanek explained that at a minimum it will take three months to resolve the issue. Carlson explained that we will know the procedural context next month. They are not necessarily intending to act but the Union should have a S chmnce to studv the i5sue and speah at the next meeting, Dave Drown felt that the City deliberately used a delay tactic to delay the reclassification process. The motion was unanimously carried. The next item discussed was the consideration of the allocation of the Parks Operations Supervisor. Vanek explained that the remedy that's being asked for in the lawsuit doesn't seek to deny any power of the Commission nor is the Commission a party of the lawsuit. He didn't see any problem with the Commission determining the allocation of the Parks Operation Supervisor. Sutton explained that the Union has filed for mediation in regards to the Parks Operation Supervisor. Vanek explained that the Commission's obligations are set forth in the Civil Service Rules and City Charter and that is to review these classifications and make a recommendation to the City Council. It was discussed that the City and Union were in agreement on the other three studies, just not the Parks Operation Supervisor. Carlson moved to adopt the recommendation of the City as approved by the Union for allocation of the Irrigation Supervisor to pay range 16.5 allocations of the Irrigation Crew Leader to pay range 14.5, and revised class specification for Water Meter Nechan1C, Posada seconded the motion. Coffin wanted a clarification on the Waterworks Device Technician position. He explained that there are currently two positions open and one person who currently is a Water Meter Mechanic should go automatically into one of the Waterworks Device Technician position. Alliston explained that it is the intent of the City for the current Water Meter Mechanic to be changed to a Waterworks Device Technician. Gerstenberger asked why when we compare to other jurisdictions, seven of then are west of the mountains and three are east of the mountains. He feels Washington is like two states, and that we should not try Cu MINUTE C3 .. ^ equate wages with the Seattle area. Smith explained that we generally wN recruit within the State and to stay competitive and fill our recruiting needs, we need to make the comparisons. The jurisdictions we compare to are fairly close in size to Yakima. The question was called to approve the motion. It was unanimously carried. Coffin explained that the Union's position is that the Civil Service Commission previously acted on certain areas covered by the Civil Service Rules and those areas were excluded from the collective bargaining agreement. When the City established that the Commission was recommendive in nature in regards to reclassification, they altered the status of negotiations between the City and the Union. That occured because of RCW 41.56.100 which 1s the basic legal requirement for the Union and City to enter into collective bargaining. It says the employee and Union will bargain in good faith. An exception is that the duty to bargain does not apply to matters covered by a Civil Service Commission that has the same scope of authority and responsibility as the State Personnel Board. When the City won the court case that said the Commission was only recommendive to the Council in terms of reclassification, the court established that this Civil Service Commission does not have the same scope authority or responsibility as the State Personnel Board. Therefore, all matters covered by the Civil Service Commission are now bargainable between the Union and the City. The Union has asserted the right to negotiate the wages in reclassification. The City has concurred with that and has set up a system with the Union to negotiate reclasses. The Union has filed for mediation for the wages and for the determination of the promotion aspect of the Parks Operations Supervisor position. Carlson made a motion to table the consideration of the allocation of the Parks Operations Supervisor. Posada seconded the motion. Jerry Copeland explained that this position has been pending for over a year. He has had two positions that were vacated, frozen over the last two weeks. He would like this position to be established. Gerstenberger moved to adopt the Parks Operations Supervisor as proposed by the Chief Examiner to a pay range 18.5. Carlson asked Coffin if he felt the Commission still had the right to make recommendations to the City Council. Coffin did not have any objections to the Commission making a recommendation. He felt they have the right and its their duty under their rules. Carlson withdrew his motion, Posada withdrew his second. Posada seconded Gerstenberger's motion. Coffin explained that they differ on two points with the City's recommendation. First, they want pay range 19,0 not 18.5. They factored it at a 19 the average salary of the comparables was close to a 19.6, outside applicants will come from outside areas and the Street Supervisor at a range 19 is comparable. Second, they want the incumbent to be promoted without competition as he has permanent status, has been performing the job for over six months and meets the minimum requirements of the position. Sutton explained that this is a new position classification, not a reclassification. Mr. Landis has been doing portions of this position. The position was budgeted for at a range 19 from an estimated guess not based on the report. He also explained that the Chief Examiner did indepth research on the position which she shares with the City and the Union. The City agreed with the report. To this date, the Union has not given the City _ any information to substantiate as to why the position should be at a MINUTE C4 4110 different pay range. Coffin disagreed because three meetings have been 16 held regarding this position. Carlson asked Coffin if he was adding any evidence to the record. Coffin was not adding any evidence. Carlson called the question The motion before them was to adopt the Parks Operation Supervisor at pay range 18.5. Posada and Gerstenberger voted yes, Carlson voted no. The motion was carried 2 to 1. Other Business Dave Brown expressed disappointment at the City for delaying their request. The meeting was adjourned at 12:00 Noon. ,------, 1 71‘. .1 c), (e-,2f, ( C enan ( ) II A I dr,..- - AEA Secreta 114 IP MINUTE C5 , III
