H. Extension of Residential Moratorium
Mayor Pro Tem Pfennighausen felt that because of the
nature of the issue, this item should not be placed on
the Consent Calendar. She stated she would not support
the extension for the moratorium.
Councilmember Grant asked how important is it to
continue the moratorium.
Planning Director Sawyer replied that he felt it is
very important because there are property owners who
want to split their land and he stated there is
controversy as to what that area should be zoned,
therefore, he felt the moratorium should be extended
until the General Plan.
City Attorney Hopkins stated that there would be no
legal outcome if the moratorium were to be extended.
Mayor Matteson felt it would keep things much simpler.
CC-88-65 MOTION BY MAYOR MATTESON, SECOND BY COUNCILMEMBER SHIRLEY, CARRIED
3-1-0 (MAYOR PRO TEM PFENNIGHAUSEN VOTED NOE, COUNCILMEMBER EVANS
ABSENT), to extend residential moratorium, but to exclude hardship
circumstances.
PUBLIC PARTICIPATION
Bill Darwin, 32172 Palm Avenue, felt that the General Plan
should not be adopted until September 1, because people
will be on vacation.
Council Minutes - 05/26/88
Page 2
Councilmember Grant concurred with Mr. Darwin that it is
lousy timing, but felt it's been put off too long,
indicating that he hoped there wouldn't be too many people
on vacation.
Mayor Matteson stated that a letter carries just as much
weight as a person appearing in person.
Mayor Pro Tem Pfennighausen stated that in 1988 there is no
great emergency in adopting the General Plan; indicating
that there are many problems and hoped that the Council
would take Mr. Darwin's request seriously to postpone the
General Plan until after September 1, 1988.
Barney Kar, er, 11668 Bernardo Way, stated that a resident
approached him with a request that she took to Planning and
was denied and he felt she should have been given the
okay. He explained the area that was in question.
Mayor Pro Tem Pfennighausen asked Planning Director Sawyer
if that would exceed the minimum number of square feet that
is required.
Planning Director replied that was not why it was denied.
Mayor Pro Tem Pfennighausen stated she has had many
complaints about this type of problem; felt it is a trivial
matter.
Mayor Matteson felt the laws are for the people and should
be followed.
Councilmember Grant concurred that an exception should be
made for this case and felt action should be taken to
modify this.
City Manager Schwab stated that the complaint was the fees
that would be involved in taking this through the process;
felt that if Council wanted to humanize this issue, they
would allow this to go through the process and the Planning
Commission would probably give the deviation.
Council directed staff to refer Mrs. Hosch back to the
Planning Commission and to put on the Consent Calendar for
the next Council meeting waiver of Planning Fees for her.
ORAL REPORTS

2c. State Bond Act
Assistant City Manager Anstine explained the
conditions made when the 1986 Parkland's Bond Act
was passed, stating that the Committee is now

redistributed for the upgrading, maintenance and
complete rehabilitation of the restrooms at Terrace
Hills Community Park and any monies left over be
applied towards parkland acquisition. He stated
there is $27,000.00 that is set aside in
Sacramento, indicating it would take approximately
$20,000.00 to redo the restrooms.

was the upgrade the restrooms and any monies left over

The City has received a request from Mrs. Mendez to paint NO

home property on Michigan.
The purpose of this request is to allow additional sighting
distance for exiting vehicles from the park. Insomuch as the
parking is utilized primarily by the residents of the park, it
appears that no undue hardship will be caused by the placement of
the NO PARKING on this property.
STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT

SUBJECT: MODIFICATION TO THE PERSONNEL RULES & REGULATIONS _s
FOR THE CITY OF GRAND TERRACE
FUNDING REQUIRED
NO FUNDING REQUIRED XX
The City Personnel Rules and Regulations are currently in need of
a major update. The last update to the manual was in 1985 and it
was only a minor revision. Many changes have caused our
Personnel Rules to be inconsistent with actual practice and
changes as authorized by Council. Some of the major changes that
have required revision are:
1. Change in federal labor laws require that we add sections on
nondiscrimination, proof of citizenship and length of
maternity leave.
2. City Council implemented the Hay Personnel System three
years ago and under this system we no longer have the A
through E step system. Therefore, we needed to modify the
rules to reflect the open range merit system that is
currently in use.
3. Bringing the Recreation Department in-house has created
a new level of employee: one which receives holidays and
personal leave, but no other benefits. We have created
additional designations to differentiate between those
that do earn benefits and those that do not.
4. The City Council in last year's negotiation added
President's Day as a holiday and this should be included
in the manual.
5. Under the old system the floating holiday was given to
any employee within the year. We would like to change
this to allow the floating holiday to be given at the
end of the probation period. The reason for the change
is that, by the old rule, an individual hired in December
would be entitled to two floating holidays prior to the
end of that month.

RULE IV
COMPENSATION
Application of Rates - The City has a policy of open salary
ranges which define the minimum, midpoint and maximum for each
job. Employees occupying a position in the classified service
shall be paid a salary or wage established for that position
class under the approved compensation schedule, based on their
time worked.
Compensation Schedule - The compensation schedule for classified
service shall include a list of classes of positions by
occupational group, with the standard rates of compensation
shown for each class.
All rates shown on the official compensation schedule and
conditions set forth therein are in full payment for services
rendered and are intended to cover full payment for the number of
hours regularly worked in each class.
Application of the Compensation Schedule - The salary range as
set forth for each c assi ication shail be applied in accordance
ow with the following:
New Appointments - Each position has a salary range
which consists of minimum, midpoint and maximum.
The minimum rate for the position shall generally apply
to new employees with little or no experience within his
classification. When qualifications and experience
warrant, an original appointment or reinstatement may be
made at a rate other than the minimum rate. The City
Manager will decide the new appointment salary based
in part on the experience and training of each employee
involved and according to the needs of the City.
Normal Advancements - After an employee successfully
completes his six-month probation, he is eligible for an
increase. It is up to his department head to recommend
the percentage of increase based on the employee's
performance record to the City Manager. Thereafter,
increases may be considered at annual evaluation
dates. The date that the employee receives his first
increase will be the annual evaluation date.
Employees that demonstrate consistent superior
performance may receive advancements outside the normal
procedure based on the merit of the performance.
Advancement Provisions - No salary advancement shall be
made so as to exceed any maximum rate established in
the compensation schedule for the class to which
the advanced employee's position is allocated except
as otherwise may be provided for. Advancement shall
not be automatic, but shall depend upon increase
service value of an employee to the City as
exemplified by the recommendations of his department
head, length of service, performance record, special
4 training undertaken, or other pertinent evidence, within
the advancement policy established by the compensation
schedule. The advancement of an employee, therefore,
is one in which actual merit and not time alone governs.
An employee shall be recommended for pay increases then
only when he clearly deserves advancement as indicated
by at least a competent rating on his last performance
evaluation, and not simply according to the elapse of a
time period.
Exceptional Service - Another provision of these rules,
notwithstanding, the City Manager may grant a 5% increase in
salary above the established rate for a given class for a
specified period of three, six, nine, or twelve months when an
employee on his own initiative and by his own efforts and
abilities is rendering service above the level of proficiency
440 normally expected in the class or is producing results
consistently superior to that normally expected of employees in
the class.
"Y" Rate - "Y" rate of the salary range of any class is defined
as any rate of pay in excess of the maximum step prescribed for a
class. An employee at the "Y" rate shall retain the same rate of
pay that he was receiving immediately prior to being assigned to
the "Y" rate. An employee may be assigned to "Y" rate who is
reclassified from a class or position in which he has acquired
regular status to a class or position with a lower salary maximum
than his present position, or he may have his salary reduced. An
employee with regular status may appeal a salary reduction to the
City Council.
Promotion to Another Class - Upon promotion, an employee shall
receive a minimum of ° increase in pay, subject to the following
conditions: The position held by the employee immediately prior
to the promotion must have been held under a regular or
probationary appointment. The employee who is receiving
compensation at the "Y" rate immediately prior to promotion shall
have his salary reduced by reason of such promotion. A promotion
under the above requires a six-month probation period with salary
review upon completion of probation. This date will become the
new annual evaluation date.
-10-
Pay Increases Other than Advancement and Promotion - The pro -
provision governing the granting of pay increases specified on
page 9 under Advancement Provisions apply to all pay increases as
well as advancements.
Transfer to Position within the Same Class - When a transfer of
position is made within the same pay range, there shall be no
salary increase or decrease because of such transfer.
6W If, in the opinion of the City Manager, the application of the
provisions of this section results in compensating an employee at
an inequitably low rate compared to other employees in the same
class, the City Manager may raise such salary to a rate
determined to be most equitable. Such action shall not be
contrary to the general intent and spirit of this Rule.
Overtime - General - All nonexempt employees who render approved
overtime service and, as a result, whose time worked exceeds the
normal work week, shall be paid overtime. A current record shall
be kept at each instance of authorized overtime work stating the
reasons therefor and by whom authorized; and also that date and
duration of each instance. The overtime service must be for work
definitely ordered or approved in advance by the appointing
authority, except in emergency conditions.
Overtime Rate - Overtime shall be computed at one and one-half
times the employee's hourly rate of pay. The smallest unit of
time worked to be credited as overtime shall be a half-hour.
Compensatory Time Off - Exempt employees shall be allowed to
accrue compensatory time in lieu of overtime pay. Said
compensatory time shall be accrued as hours worked in excess of
40 hours per week or eight hours per day. The maximum accrual
shall be 40 hours. In addition, the City Manager shall have the
option of paying exempt employees for time worked in excess of
the standard work day or week at straight time computed at that
employee's regular hourly rate of pay.
Temporary Salary Increase - The City Manager may, at his
discretion, grant an employee a temporary advancement of not more
than ten percent for a period in excess of one month, but not to
exceed six months, during that time such employee is required to
perform the duties of a higher position. At the conclusion of
such assignment or period of advancement granted, whichever is
shorter, the employee's salary shall be reduced to the normal
rate prescribed for his classification.
-11-

RULE V
FRINGE BENEFITS - RETIREMENT
Fringe Benefits (Cafeteria Plan)
For eligible employees the City provides payment for health
insurance. Also provided for eligible employees is payment for
life insurance for the employee ($15,000) and spouse ($3,000).
18.1 percent of each eligible employee's salary is put into an
account whereby you can use the fund for additional benefits such
as a dental plan for employee and family, and health insurance
for family. An eligible employee is defined as a full-time or
regular part-time employee. Any money not used for insurance
benefits is deposited in the employee's deferred compensation
account and accrues interest until time of termination or
retirement. The employee can also designate a portion of his
salary be deferred to this account.
The complete plan is available to employees should they want
further information.

The City pays 12.4 percent on the salary of each eligible
employee which goes into a retirement account. Again,
eligibility is determined as a full-time employee or regular
part-time employee. An employee is fully vested (100%) at ten
years of employment. Should an employee leave after the first
year he would be entitled to 45% of his retirement; 55% after the
second year; 65% after his third and then in 5% increments for
each year until the tenth year. The complete plan is available
to employees should they want further information.
