Ordinance B includes a reallocation of the Police Chief classification from pay range 964 ($6,502 - $7,897/mo) to pay range 963 ($6,826- $8,294 /mo) The purpose of this adjustment is to place the City of Yakima m a more attractive economic position in our second recruitment effort for the vacant Police Chief position. During the first recruitment we became aware that our Police Chief salary was lower than many other Police Chief advertisements. Competitively, this has placed the City of Yakima m a disadvantageous position m the marketplace to recruit and retain qualified individuals with the expertise necessary for this level of responsibility Additionally, the salary compression within the police management ranks provides tittle economic incentive to promote to the Chief's position.

During the first recruitment we became aware that our Police Chief salary was lower than many other Police Chief advertisements. Competitively, this has placed the City of Yakima in a disadvantageous position in the marketplace to recruit and retain qualified individuals with the expertise necessary for this level of responsibility. Due to salary compression within the police management ranks, there is little economic incentive to promote to the Chief's position. , Currently, there is approximately a 10% difference between top step Police Chief and Police Captain and approximately a 10% spread between top step Police Captain and Police Lieutenant, not including any overtime earnings. Consequently, to assist us with a successful outcome to this current search process, we have conducted a current salary survey for the Police Chief classification. Attachment A reports the results of the salary survey which indicates that our 2003 top step compensation for' Police Chief is 9.6% or $758.00 per month below the 2002 top step compensation for other comparable cities with of a population of 35,000 to 85,000. . To increase our competitiveness in the marketplace, it is recommended that the Police Chief classification be reallocated from pay range 964 ($6,502/mo - $7,897/mo) to 963 ($6,826/mo - $8,294/mo). This reallocation places the Police Chief classification one pay range below the Assistant City Manager classification at pay range 962 ($7,162/mo - $8,710/mo). It is important to note that that the actual cost of filling this vacancy, even with the reallocation to a higher pay range, will be less than the cost of the incumbent who recently retired. This is due to the fact that any new employee will not be eligible for longevity pay for five years and the employee who retired was receiving longevity at 9.0 %. We recognize that at a point in the future we will want to review the compensation levels of other management positions; however, in our current economic climate, this is not the appropriate time to do so. In summary, if we do not maintain a competitive position in the marketplace in the regional northwest or Washington state, it will be a deterrent to hiring the best and brightest to meet our organizational needs.
