Commission reviews levy commission budget, sees room for additional staff and plans performance review
Summary
Commissioners reviewed the fiscal 2023–24 income statement and a draft budget showing salary savings; staff said there is budget room for an additional employee and commissioners requested a performance and compensation review for Public Works staff member Frank.
Staff presented the levy commission’s fiscal 2023–24 income statement and a draft budget for the coming year, reporting that the commission budgeted $128,450 for salaries but spent $115,104 in the last fiscal year. Staff said the interim finance director flagged available room in the proposed budget that could accommodate an additional employee if the commission wishes to hire.
Commissioners asked about a consultant to perform wage comparators; staff recalled a vendor who could provide salary comparisons to other similar districts. Commissioners discussed aligning any staff wage adjustments with citywide salary comparisons rather than ad hoc increases.
Commissioners also requested that Frank's performance review and compensation discussion be scheduled for the April meeting. One commissioner asked staff (Nadine) to gather materials in advance so the commission can consider a performance and compensation adjustment after reviewing comparable salary data.
Ending: Staff will coordinate with the interim finance director to confirm budget lines and will return to the commission with wage comparison data and materials for Frank’s performance and compensation review at the April meeting.
