Council updates wage schedule, reclassifies supervisor roles; vote recorded as Ordinance 15-44
Summary
Gig Harbor approved a change to the city’s personnel pay schedule that formalizes reclassification of three field-supervisor positions into two operations-supervisor pay-grade changes; the council recorded the approval as Ordinance 15-44, while the agenda listed the item as Ordinance 15-42.
The Gig Harbor City Council on May 12 approved a change to the city wage schedule to reflect reclassification of supervisor positions, recording the action in the minutes as Ordinance 15-44.
Human Resources Director Shannon Costanti told the council the recently negotiated memorandum of understanding on the consent agenda reclassified three field-supervisor positions to operations supervisors; the reclassification formalizes supervisory duties and the current request adjusts pay-grade placement for two of the operations-supervisor positions while one position remains at its current placement.
“As part of that reclassification…we have proposed the wage schedule to modify the pay-grade placement for two of those operations supervisors,” Costanti said, adding that one position is not proposed to move because market data show it is situated properly.
Council member Coronado moved to approve the ordinance as recorded and Council member Ekberg seconded. The motion, recorded in the meeting transcript as approval of Ordinance 15-44, passed 7-0. The meeting transcript also lists the item on the agenda as Ordinance 15-42; staff and council did not state an on-record correction during deliberation.
Staff said the pay-schedule amendment follows a reclassification agreed in the MOU and that the change is intended to align pay with updated duties; no public comment was received on the item during the meeting.
