EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Request by the Clerk for additional funding for pay plan adjustments and COLA increases consistent with the Board of County Commissioners Pay Plan. OBJECTIVE: To obtain sufficient funding from the Board of County Commissioners to fund adjustments to the Clerk's pay plan and re-instate career ladder and performance recognition programs within the Clerk's Agency. CONSIDERATIONS: The Clerk's staffing has decreased from 292.2 FTEs in 2008 to 200 FTE's authorized in the 2013 budget. The Clerk of Courts staff has not received pay increases for the last 5 years due to budget constraints. Additionally, Clerk's Office employees were required to take 6 unpaid furlough days in 2009 and 6 unpaid holidays in 2010. The Clerk's Office has recently experienced increasing turnover in positions, most recently losing several staff to Board Departments at significantly increased salary levels. Upon review of the County Pay Plan, the Clerk's Plan is significantly below the Board's for similarly situated positions. The Clerk is requesting funding sufficient to bring Clerk's staff to comparable County levels. Funds are also needed to implement the 2% COLA provided to Board employees. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: None FISCAL IMPACT: The fiscal impact associated with these proposed actions is to be determined after discussion. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: RECOMMENDATION: That the Board authorize funding for Clerk's pay plan adjustments and COLA, and approve corresponding Budget Amendment from available funds.
