AGENDA ITEM Item No.: Date: September 24, 2018 Item Description: Revision to Police Chief Job Description, Position Pointing, and Pay Grade Presenter: Dustin Rief, City Administrator Agenda Consent Agenda Section: 1. Purpose: The purpose of this action is correct the police chief position description for gaps related to contracted police services. 2. Background: The City of Orono provides police services to Minnetonka Beach, Mound and Spring Park. The police chief position description does not accurately take into account additional police services outside of Orono and the additional knowledge required. The change in the description requires a repointing of the positions as well. The attached memo (Exhibit B) from the Finance Department reflects the nature of this evaluation. The repointing done internally shows a 100 point increase from 883 to 983 in the area of know how. This places the Police Chief position into grade 18 of the Non-union scale. Pointing is required to maintain fair and equitable pay under Minnesota Statutes. The position description is attached with the changes highlighted in yellow under exhibit A. 3. Cost. The prorated cost to the city police budget is approximately $2,420.49. The annual increase is equal to 6.38% or $7,119.08 4. Staff Recommendation. Staff is recommending an amendment to the Motion from August 28, 2018 by approving the change to the Police Chief Position description, position pointing and grade change. COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED Motion to accept an amendment to the Motion from August 28, 2018 by approving the change to the Police Chief Position description, position pointing and grade change.
