ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES FOR JULY 26, 1999 *( 913) REQUEST FOR PAYMENT #4 - SHORELINE DRIVE/HERITAGE SANITARY SEWER PROJECT Kelley moved, Peterson seconded, to approve Request for Payment #4, Heritage/ Shoreline Sanitary Sewer Project to G.L. Contracting in the amount of $11,099.33. VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0. CITY ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT ( #14) AMENDMENT TO THE CITY'S PAY SCHEDULE Moorse stated that an adjustment to the City's pay schedule as it relates to the building inspector was recommended to enable the pay range to more closely match the market pay level. However, in discussing this recommendation, it appears that this is not the appropriate action, and that the City should maintain the position at its current level in the pay schedule and authorize a market adjustment that enables the position to be paid at the Level 8 pay range. Moorse indicated that the City of Orono has kept up with the cost of living, but that other cities are generally higher. Kelley inquired whether this reflects the industry standard. Moorse stated the increase is reflective of what other cities are paying. Flint moved, Sansevere seconded, to authorize a market adjustment for the Building Inspector position to be paid at the Level 8 pay range. VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0. *( #15) APPOINTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SUPPORT ASSISTANT Kelley moved, Peterson seconded, to approve the appointment of Heidi Berry to the position of Administrative Support Assistant at the Level 4, Step 1 pay rate of $12.79 per hour, effective July 19, 1999.
