25 <br /> <br />– Employee Base Hourly Rate Adjusted Based on Performance <br />– Hourly Rate Equivalent to Existing Performance Tiers <br />» Exceptional - $1,000 = $0.48 per hour <br />» Superior - $750 = $0.36 per hour <br />» Proficient - $500 = $0.24 per hour <br /> <br />• Employee Pay and Benefits – page 409 <br />• Health Insurance Increase (Active Employees & Pre-65 Retirees) – No <br />Change <br />• Post 65 Retiree Health Insurance Cost Increase - $59,700 <br />• Dental Insurance Cost – No Change <br />• Maintain $15.00 per hour for Permanent Employees <br />• Living Wage for Temporary Employees <br />– Increase to $14.95 ($0.70 increase) Effective 7/1/19 for All <br />Temporary Employees Consistent with OC Living Wage - $25,000 <br /> <br />Commissioner Dorosin said the Board started a conversation last week of giving a flat <br />percent increase across the board, and whether this creates disparities between those who are <br />at the top and those at the bottom. He said he would like to revisit the idea, and possibly having <br />a differential scale, or some other way for more equitable distribution. <br />Commissioner McKee said the increase means something different to a person making <br />$30,000 than it does to someone making $150,000, and those at the bottom tier need the <br />money more than those at the top tier. <br />Commissioner Greene said since it is at the base pay, it is compounded every year. <br />Chair Rich said this is not for now, but for future discussion. She said it is important to <br />add it to the base pay, as bonuses are nice but do not help with retirement; only the base pay <br />does. <br />Travis Myren resumed the PowerPoint presentation: <br /> <br />• Information Technologies – page 295 <br />• Total expenditure budget - $4,076,614 <br />– Increase of $628,598 Over FY2018-19 <br />• Software Maintenance and Licenses <br />– Increase of $615,168 <br />– Funds Maintenance for 111 Software Programs <br /> <br />Commissioner Dorosin said the increase of over $600,000 is a lot, and asked if this is <br />unusual. <br />Jim Northup said this is not unusual with the timing of the multi-year contracts, but there <br />are savings up to about $116,000 over the term of 5 years. He said multi-year contracts are <br />pursued every year, and they sometimes stay the same, but usually do not increase. He said <br />there is typically a 2-4% increase in software maintenance across the board for existing <br />applications, and the multi-year helps to keep it at 4% or less. <br />Chair Rich referred to page 327 and the Tuition Refunds, and asked if the specifics of <br />the refunds could be clarified. <br />Travis Myren said this is for employee reimbursement for tuition for professional <br />development activities. <br />Commissioner Greene referred to page 306 - Community Services - and asked if there is <br />a unifying thread to these items; e.g.: Arts Center and Kidzu. <br />Travis Myren said the common denominator is that these items do not fit into the <br />departments’ budgets, but have some relationship to Community Services.
