Council corrects pay-range analysis for management, professional and technical employees; modest budget impact reported
Summary
The council unanimously approved Resolution No. 3471 to amend pay ranges for management, professional and technical employees after staff corrected an error in prior health insurance premium data; estimated additional General Fund cost is under $20,000 in FY2026.
The Sparks City Council voted July 28 to approve Resolution No. 3471, which amends the city's pay-range resolution for management, professional and technical employees for the period July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2029. Staff said the amendment corrects an error in how employee health-insurance premiums were accounted for in an earlier market analysis.
"That error was not deducting the employee's share of their premiums," Allison McCormack, assistant city manager, told the council. She said correcting that data changed several pay-range outcomes and that some positions will receive larger increases as a result.
McCormack presented estimated fiscal effects: additional costs of $16,948 in the General Fund and $4,634 in other funds for FY2026, and $19,719 in the General Fund and $6,652 in other funds for FY2027. She said the figures reflect revised total-compensation data and resulted from employee feedback received after the prior resolution.
Councilmember Abbott moved to approve Resolution No. 3471; Vanderwell seconded. The motion passed unanimously.
