A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY

SALARY SCHEDULE FOR THE POSITIONS OF
ASSISTANT CITY CLERK AND BUDGET MANAGER
WHEREAS, City Charter Section 601 requires the City Council to provide the
number, titles, qualifications, powers, duties and compensation of all officers and
employees;
WHEREAS, Newport Beach Municipal Code Section 2.28.010 provides that, upon
recommendation of the City Manager, the City Council may establish by resolution the
salary range or rate for each position;
WHEREAS, due to the recent departure of the Assistant City Clerk and inability to
fill the position despite an extensive recruitment process, the Human Resources
Department studied the position to determine if adjustments to salary, education,
experience, certifications and/or job responsibilities were necessary;
WHEREAS, the study findings resulted in a recommendation to adjust the salary
range upward and to enhance the experience and certification requirements for the
Assistant City Clerk classification;
WHEREAS, additionally, these adjustments will update the Assistant City Clerk job
specification and place the City's position in a more competitive environment;
WHEREAS, the Budget Manager's recent retirement provided an opportunity for
the Finance Department to evaluate its overall operational needs;
WHEREAS, the Finance Department has determined it is in its best interest to
narrow the Budget Manager's scope of responsibility at this time;
WHEREAS, Human Resources is recommending adjusting the salary range
downward for the Budget Manager classification due to the reduced level of responsibility,
accountability, span of control and supervisory obligations while maintaining internal and
external parity; and
WHEREAS, the City Manager has reviewed the changes to the salary schedule
for the Assistant City Clerk and Budget Manager, as provided in this resolution and
recommends approval.
