A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO EMPLOYEE CLASSIFICATION PLAN (LEGAL SECRETARIAL POSITIONS) 0128 CITY MANAGER - LABOR RELATIONS inequities of sick pay were being addressed. Coordinator of Labor Relations Tolmacheff stated that this would effect a 12 day sick leave for this unit. Discussion followed: if the City had the money for the three year contract; that the funds would come from the Enterprise Fund; whether this contract would bring pay equity comparable to the job market, etc. M/S Haffey/Addiego - To adopt the Resolution. RESOLUTION NO. 46-88 Carried by unanimous voice vote. Coordinator of Labor Relations Tolmacheff stated that the current two legal secre- taries were at an equivalent level, and one position had been vacant for quite some time. She stated that the City Attorney had been reevaluating the staffing situation in clerical positions, and had come forward with this recommen- dation that would establish progressive steps for Legal Secretary I and Legal Secretary II. She continued, the Legal Secretary I would be equivalent to the salary for Secretary I, and Legal Secretary II would be equivalent to the present salary for Legal Secretary II. Mayor Pro Tem Teglia made reference to a memo received from Ms. Irene Shadd, Senior Typist Clerk Public Works Division, dated 4/12/88 with an addendum dated 4/13/88 on the subject. Ms. Irene Shadd stated that she had pre- sented the memo to the Council in hopes that the Council would hold up action on this item because she was unsatisfied with the method by which this item had been brought about to Council. She stated the following: the position had 4/13/88 Page 9 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN 0i29 CITY MANAGER - LABOR RELATIONS 11. Staff Report - Continued. CITY MANAGER - LABOR RELATIONS been vacant for some time; there was an existing list that employees had tested for; she was no. 3 on the list; the sta- tus of the position had been followed through the Personnel Board for some time, and had been in hopes that some action would have taken place prior to the list having expired; she had heard that the City Attorney was looking at the position for reevaluation; had checked with the Personnel Board to see if they were alerted that the list was going to be allowed to expire without an extension - and to her knowledge, they had not been alerted; thought staff wanted the list to expire in order to take this action; that the two positions had already been downgraded before; staff said it is a progression, but can't see where that is going to take place; staff was going to give additional duties to the current Legal Secretary without adjusting her wages, while taking away from the other position; that the staff report indicated that the Legal Secretary I would be a position not requiring legal experience - an entry level position; the job descrip- tions indicated legal knowledge for Legal Secretary II, etc. Councilman Nicolopulos questioned if Ms. Shadd had followed the City channels or the chain of command to investigate this problem. Ms. Shadd stated that she was in Unit A and had gone to her unit representative who had told her it was a different unit and he could not help her. Councilman Haffey stated that this was not an emergency item , and he would like to see it go back to staff for due process. City Attorney Armento stated that this was not something that fell under an M.O.U. type situation, so it was not something grievable in a typical grievance pro- cess. She stated that in the past, any' 4/13/88 Page 10 CITY MANAGER - LABOR RELATIONS 11. Staff Report - Continued. CITY MANAGER - LABOR RELATIONS time a department head had wanted to reorganize a department or division, he figured it out and then presented it to the City Manager or City Council. Mayor Pro Tem Teglia stated that when the City Attorney was hired the City was short an Assistant City Attorney, and then the Legal Secretary had died. She continued, then the Council had told the City Attorney to look at the office and come back to the Council with a recommen- dation for the office that included clerical staff positions. Councilman Addiego stated that the alle- gation being made was that the City was reorganizing the department and had let the list expire to get to their end result, which was a tactic he did not like, and wanted to know what transpired. City Attorney Armento related the following: when the Legal Secretary died there was then one Attorney (herself) and one Legal Secretary while she had been with the City for two weeks; she did not at that time have a lot of time to eva- luate the entire office at that time; the Legal Secretary was first advertised as a transfer position, and Mary Carrol was the one applicant that applied; the Attorney was told that if Mary wanted the job she could have the job - Mary decided she did not want the job; then the job was advertised as a closed promotional - there were no applicants; the job was then advertised as an open competitive which resulted in seven applicants - one of whom passed; Personnel told her this was not going to be feasible, and she should consider revising the specifications because there was a big stumbling block with the shorthand; the specifications were revised in regard to shorthand and use of computers, then advertised again; this time there was a certified list of five people last March; the top person on the list with legal experience was appointed, even though the requirement in 4/13/88 Page 11 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN --CITY MANAGER - LABOR RELATIONS 11. Staff Report - Continued. CITY MANAGER - LABOR RELATIONS the specifications said five years of legal secretarial experience - none of the in-house applicants had legal secre- tarial experience; the person appointed was good as far as knowing the legal secretarial things, but had certain other problems and quit in late June; the next day the Attorney offered the job to the no. i in-hoUse candidate, Barbara DeMattai - who turned it down; the Attorney then decided to reevaluate the position in light of the problem of the new hire that terminated in June who had not wanted to take direction from the other Legal Secretary; this reevaluation would allow a career ladder for Senior Typist Clerks and Secretary I's, and she was willing to train an in-house appli- cant, etc. Councilman Nicolopulos stated that the prerequisites should be well spelled out, and the Attorney should have the talent, with the special training needed in the clerical positions. Mayor Pro Tem Teglia felt that the Attorney should have clerical help that was properly qualified - that already had the legal training. Councilman Haffey felt that it was admirable that the City Attorney was willing to train a Senior Typist Clerk or a Secretary I as a Legal Secretary I. City Attorney Armento stated she was going to look for the person with the best secretarial skills overall, and one who was interested in doing legal secre- tarial work. Mrs. Shadd stated that the testing for legal secretary had been done by an out- side firm, and did not understand why the position should be downgraded - or how that was a promotion. 4/13/88 Page 12 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN CITY MANAGER - LABOR RELATIONS 11. Staff Report - Continued. CITY MANAGER - LABOR RELATIONS Councilman Haffey stated that Mrs. Shadd was saying that there were presently two Legal Secretary positions for which she was shooting for one, and the City Attorney was suggesting a step in between the two Legal Secretaries. He stated that in his mind, when there was no legal experience - the chances for succeeding would be greater in the new system rather than in the old system where she might have more difficulty competing. Ms. Mary Carrol, Secretary II to Fire Chief, related the following: when the position was a closed promotional the Senior Typist Clerks were told they did not qualify for the position; then the testing was made open competitive and the inside people that had put in for it pre- viously that were told they did not qualify were told they did qualify and tested; one of those people testing was Barbara DeMattai who came in No. 1, and was told she didn't have enough qualifi- cations and was bypassed. She felt that this was not right, and people who do not qualify should not be put through the aggravation of testing only to be told they did not qualify. She stated that the Legal Secretary in the position was going to be a training supervisor, yet there was no con- sideration being given to adjust her salary. City Attorney Armento stated that she envisioned that she, the other Attorney, and the Secretary would all be doing the training. She stated that in the mid- management item that had been continued to the next meeting, there was a clear clarification that the Legal Secretary wage is to be raised more than was ori- ginally anticipated in light of the legal secretary job market in other cities. She stated that the current Legal Secretary has no problem with this pro- posal or the lower pay rate originally proposed, or the higher rate contained in the item continued. 4/13/8~ Page 13 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN CITY MANAGER - LABOR RELATIONS 11. Staff Report - Continued. CITY MANAGER - LABOR RELATIONS Ms. Carrol stated that as the Representative of the Confidential Secretaries Unit she had spoken to the Legal Secretary on the matter, and she told her she was concerned. She stated that the percentage difference spoken of in relation to the Legal Secretary was only 2%, which was only a control point adjustment - not an adjustment of her salary in light of the new program. Mayor Pro Tem Teglia stated that this item should be continued rather than have the Council negotiate in public. She suggested that the matter be taken back to staff for meetings with the appropriate units for discussion, however, staff did not have to take direction from the units. Discussion followed: that every employee should have due process; what the quali- fications had been for Legal Secretary when the outside person was hired; con- cern over Ms. Carrol's recollections being very different than the City Attorney's; that a Supervisor was respon- sible for the employee's week, which did not appear to be the case in the proposal for the Attorney's Office; that Senior Typist Clerks could not be excluded from applying and testing for Legal Secretary I positions. Mr. McAuley, ASCME Representative, stated that the Legal Secretary position was in the management group and that was why he was unable to help Ms. Shadd, however, he had brought it to the Personnel Board to find out what had hap- pened. He stated that he was disappointed in this item going before Council tonight, and happy that a career ladder was being effected; and disappointed in seeing the position being downgraded without a meet and confer process with a group. 4/13/88 Page 14 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN CITY MANAGER - LABOR RELATIONS 11.

Staff Report 4/13/88 recommending adoption of a Resolution that sets control points for the Management-.~oOO Confidential Group. A RESOLUTION SETTING CONTROL POINTS FOR THE MANAGEMENT AND CONFIDENTIAL EMPLOYEE GROUP CITY MANAGER - LABOR RELATIONS Mayor Pro Tem Teglia stated that Mr. McAuley should be included in staff discussions on this item before it is brought back to Council, in that people from his unit could apply and test for the position. Coordinator of Labor Relations Tolmacheff stated that the City and Firefighters Unit had been negotiating since 9/87 on a cost of living adjustment on the third year of their three-year contract, and that tentative agreement had been reached. She spoke in detail of the costs of the adjustment to the City, and that further negotiations on the sick leave plan would be held. Councilman Nicolopulos questioned the status of the sick plan, and wanted Council to be apprised through out the negotiating process. He questioned if the City had the money to fund this contract without causing ramifications to the existing budget. Councilman Haffey stated that if there were any modifications to the direction given to the Negotiator, there would be a Closed Session to discuss the matter. City Manager Lewis stated that the funds would be coming from revenues in the General Fund. M/S Haffey/Addiego - To adopt the Resolution. RESOLUTION NO. 47-88 Councilman Addiego directed staff to find out if the firefighters wanted a separate check for the retroactive salary. Carried by unanimous voice vote. Coordinator of Labor Relations Tolmacheff stated that a salary survey was conducted according to the salary policy, and the control points had been adjusted retroactive to 7/1/87 in the resolution 4/13/88 Page 15 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN CITY MANAGER - LABOR RELATIONS 13. Staff Report - Continued. (Cassette No. 4) 14. Staff Report 4/13/88 recommending adoption of a Resolution amending the City's employee classification plan for the positions of Building CITY MANAGER - LABOR RELATIONS She stated that a salary survey was con- ducted on all of the positions in the Management and Confidential Group in the cities the City regularly compared salaries to, which by prior resolution required the survey to be done yearly and the control points adjusted to the top step of the survey average. She con- tinued, in addition there was the incor- poration of three classification issues: Superintendent of Facilities Maintenance; Public Works Superintendent, and Public Works Supervisor Electrical - these were done at the employees request and were incorporated into the control point rec- commendations. She stated that staff did evaluate the issue of pay equity and compaction rela- tive to the confidential employees and clerical employees supervised, and found they would only be eligible for a 3% increase. She stated that staff had recommended a 5% increase for the mem- bers, except for the Legal Secretary who would receive a 7% increase based on the salary survey. She spoke in detail of the costs involved in the package. Mayor Pro Tem Teglia stated that Council had received a memo from the Confidential Employee Group on this subject. Councilman Nicolopulos requested a deli- nation on the word compaction, which should mean making something smaller. Coordinator of Labor Relations Tolmacheff stated that she meant it as a need for a supervisor to make more than the persons they are supervising, however, she should have used the word anti-compaction. Mayor Pro Tem Teglia stated that this item would be continued. Coordinator of Labor Relations Tolmacheff stated that these three positions were reviewed last year, and that staff's recommendation was a 10% salary 4/13/88 Page 16 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN ....

A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO EMPLOYEE CLASSIFICATION PLAN FOR THE POSITIONS OF BUILDING INSPECTOR, CODE ENFORCEMENT OFFICER, AND LEAD BUILDING MAINTENANCE CUSTODIAN CITY MANAGER - LABOR RELATIONS adjustment for the Building Inspector and Code Enforcement Officer and a 71/2% adjustment for the Lead Building Maintenance Custodian Councilman Nicolopulos stated that Council must look at both sides of the issue, and the recommendation from the Consultant. He continued, who had stated that the final determination rested with the City based on its assessment of the internal relationships. He stated that staff had recommended a 10% adjustment for the Code Enforcement Officer and the Building Inspector - yet he had yet to receive a rational of the recommendation for the Code Enforcement Officer. He stated that he had heard from Police Officers that the 10% increase for the Code Enforcement Officer would make her salary 8% higher than the top rated Police Officer and 2% higher than a Police Officer II position - he questioned if the allegations were true. Coordinator of Labor Relations Tolmacheff stated that she had not evaluated the Code Enforcement Officer position nor had she heard such a complaint. Police Chief Datzman stated that the recommendation came from the City Manager and staff, and the two positions had nothing to do with one another - were dissimiliar. He stated that he had not heard those allegations from anyone in his department. Councilman Nicolopulos stated that he wanted to know the rational for placing the Code Enforcement Officer with the Building Inspector. Motion by Councilman Nicolopulos - That the Council grant the Building Inspector classification a 10% increase and refer the other item back to staff to research questions that he had asked. 4/13/88 Page 17 0127 CITY MANAGER - LABOR RELATIONS 14. Staff Report - Continued. CITY MANAGER - LABOR RELATIONS Councilman Addiego questioned if Councilman Nicolopulos was saying that he believed the Building Inspector was worth slightly more than a Police Officer, but a Code Enforcement Officer was not. City Manager Lewis stated that the Code Enforcement Officer and the Building Inspector had been compensated at the same rate for years. Councilman Halley stated that the last item had been delayed because people had come forth tonight with a specific request, however, all Councilpersons talked to various people all the time who made allegations - which was not the same. Councilman Nicolopulos withdrew his Motion, and asked that the item be con' tinued to the next meeting so the Mayor could be present for the discussion. Consensus of Council - to continue the item to the next meeting, and staff should provide information on the inter- nal salary relationships of the increases, and respond to the allegations made to Councilman Nicolopulos. Mr. Frank McAuley, AFSCME Representative, stated that he wanted to know what Police Officer negotiates for people he repre- sents. He stated that he wanted to know what relevant point there was in what a Policeman makes or what he made. He stated that last year the same issue had been presented to Council with a 21/2% increase, and Councilman Nicolopulos had said he wanted inner parity in the department in wages, and in deference to him - now the increase was for 10% for the Code Enforcement Officer with a pro- posal for parity in the department. Councilman Nicolopulos stated that Mr. McAuley was saying that staff made a deal for him, and questioned if that was a fact or an allegation, because this was a 4/13/88 Page 18 ^CT O, T^ E, 0!28 --CITY MANAGER - LABOR RELATIONS 14.

W. Dean & Assoc. for the Terrabay Project. ITEMS FROM STAFF the City, which had been subject to con- ditions that had to be satisfied prior to execution of the Agreement. He stated that late last month the City Attorney had received a letter from Mr. Dean's Attorney requesting the City execute the Agreement in that all of the conditions had been satisfied. M/S Haffey/Nicolopulos - To authorize the Mayor to execute a Development Agreement with W. W. Dean & Assoc. for the Terrabay Project. Councilman Addiego stated that the Development Agreement was made on 5/18/83, and for the Mayor to sign the agreement now it could have some dramatic impacts on some things that were not per- ceived five years ago, i.e., the fire station and the Hillside Recreation Center. He stated that the Hillside Recreation Center was the major component that was so seductive to this City because of the swimming pool, and questioned if the Council envisioned itself operating three swimming pools. He wanted the Council to think about the pool being placed in Westborough rather than at Hillside, which was close to the existing pool at Orange Park. He questioned if the Developer should be dictating where the fire station should be built, when after talking to the former and present Fire Chiefs a better location might be the industrial area of town. He questioned if modifications could be made to the Development Agreement.

ITEMS FROM STAFF Addiego, that the City could not act uni- laterally once the Agreement was entered into, and if changes were to be made there would have to be hearings. Discussion followed: on not pitting one neighborhood against another to compete for recreation facilities; that not all improvements had to be on-site; that the City could negotiate with the Developer in the future because of approvals the Developer needed from the City. Mr. John Oxnard, Project Manager Terrabay, stated that Mr. Dean was meeting with the Fire Department in good faith on the fire station. Fire Chief Feuerstein stated that Mayor Drago had been the Fire Chief when the station was negotiated, and the Central Fire Station would be moved to the Hillside Station without additional costs. He stated that with the present configuration of fire stations the Hillside location was a workable location. Councilman Addiego stated that he was an opponent of the Project, and would like the item held over to the next meeting when the Mayor could be present. William Sterling, Atty. for Mr. Dean, stated that he took exception to Councilman Addiego saying that the Developer had not been active for five years. He stated that Mr. Dean had been responsible and active, however, there had been many problems involving litiga- tion over the five years. He stated that for the Mayor to sign the Agreement, and the City Clerk to attest the document, was purely an administerial action. He stated that there were discretionary approvals by Mr. Dean in the future and he was willing to negotiate. Carried by majority roll call vote, Addiego voted no. 4/13/88 Page 21 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN ITEMS FROM COUNCIL 18. Subcommittee Report on the Downtown/Central Redevelopment Project.
