WHEREAS, the City Council authorizes adjustments to the Salary and Benefits Plan
document for Management/Confidential employees;
WHEREAS, the City Manager is hereby directed and authorized to implement all
provisions listed below which are to be incorporated into the Salary and Benefit Plan for

less of the employee's salary paid to Classic employees of Tier 1 & 2 will

PEPRA employees.
Employees who are hired after the stipend payment is made will receive a
pro -rated portion of the stipend payment for that fiscal year based on the
remaining pay periods in the fiscal year. Employees may have all or a
portion of the stipend deposited to their ICMA 457 account upon following
