It is recommended to increase the minimum and maximum salary range from $15.00 - $19.00 to $15.50 - $19.50 per hour for the classifications of Lifeguard, Services Aide and Intern in Exhibit 8, Unit 8, Non-Represented, effective January 1, 2023. It is recommended to increase the salary range for the Police Cadet I classification from $15.00 - $20.00 to $15.50 - $20.50 per hour; increase the salary range for the Senior Lifeguard classification from $15.50 - $20.00 to $16.00 - $20.50 per hour to maintain consistency with the Lifeguard salary increase; increase the minimum salary range for the Sports Official classification from $15.00 to $15.50 per game; and modify the Cashier Clerk classification salary range from Flat Rate to Hourly with a salary range of $15.50 - $19.50 per hour consistent with other comparable Hourly classifications in Exhibit 8, Unit 8, Non-Represented.
