| | | | | | | | ANALYSIS
| The Administration presented a separate item before the City Commission on December 11, 2019. The City Commission approved the ratification of a three-year labor agreement between the City of Miami Beach and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) Local 1554 from the period of May 1, 2019 through April 30, 2022.
The ratified agreement between the City and the AFSCME mandates the implementation of a one percent (1%) across the board cost of living adjustment (COLA), effective the first full pay period ending in April 2019, for all classified employees represented by the AFSCME, with a corresponding one percent (1%) increase to the minimum and maximum of each pay range; a one percent (1%) across the board COLA, effective the first full pay period ending in July 2020, for all classified employees represented by the AFSCME, with a corresponding one percent (1%) increase to the minimum and maximum of each pay range; a one percent (1%) across the board COLA, effective the first full pay period ending in July 2021, for all classified employees represented by the AFSCME, with a corresponding one percent (1%) increase to the minimum and maximum of each pay range; in the event the City’s general fund revenues increase by eleven percent (11%) or more in June 2020, there shall be an across the board COLA of two percent (2%), effective the first full pay period ending in July 2021, instead of the one percent (1%) amending Ordinance No. 789, the Classified Employees Salary Ordinance of the City of Miami Beach, Florida accordingly. The ordinance amendment will ensure the City has an employee classification and compensation system that is reasonable and competitive.
Any of the classified employees who separate from employment with the City prior to the date of implementation of the COLAs, will not be eligible to receive the COLA increases.
|
| | | |
| | | | | | | | CONCLUSION
| The Administration recommends amending Ordinance No. 789, the Classified Employees Salary Ordinance of the City of Miami Beach, Florida, by providing a COLA effective the first full pay period ending in April 2019, July 2020, and July 2021 with the possibility of a two percent COLA in July 2021, and increasing the minimum and maximum of each AFSCME bargaining unit classification pay range correspondingly by one percent.
Based on the foregoing, the Administration recommends that the City Commission approve the proposed ordinance on second reading.
