A motion was made by Commissioner Carey, seconded by Commissioner Halkiotis to approve the plan as submitted by Chair Brown with the 401 K contribution being nonmatching. Commissioner Gordon said that she still has a concern that the proposed pay plan does not do anything different. She would like to have some portion of the plan to be flexible so that pay and performance are more closely matched, but she understands that this is not the option the Board is ready to pursue She also suggested that the County Commissioners each year decide the amount for COLA and the in-range percentage and asked that Commissioners defer making a decision on the 2.5% amount for in-range salary progression until it is deciding on the COLA for 1999-00. A friendly amendment was added by Commissioner Gordon and accepted by consensus that the County Commissioners would decide the amounts for COLA and in-range increase percentage at budget time. The motion included reinstating the current pay plan for 1998-99 and appropriating $118,734 from fund balance to provide the needed additional funding.
