2. PAY PLAN ADMINISTRATION:
(a) Non-uniformed Pay Plan. The pay plan presented herein for positions except uniformed police
and fire defines the range of pay for each position in the city. There will be two steps between minimum
and market, with minimum designated as Step I and market pay designated as Step 4, that range being
designated as both a hiring and probationary range. Market pay (Step 4) of each range is considered the
rate of pay for a fully trained, competent employee. There will be five steps between market pay and
maximum, with maximum designated as Step 10, that range being designated for merit pay. Progression
from one step to the next higher step shall be based solely on performance as approved by the department
head or city manager and will be effective on an employee's evaluation date.
(b) Uniformed Police and Fire Pay Plan. In order to receive a step increase, each employee must meet
the time-in-service requirement and have a performance evaluation that is at least "Meets Expectations." If
an employee does not meet the performance evaluation requirement, the supervisor may set a time for re-
evaluation and reconsideration of the step increase if improved performance is recognized.
3. ASSIGNMENT PAY:
Paramedic and Fire Inspector positions are not specified as rank, but are designated as an assignment and
receive assignment pay as follows:
Paramedic
Inspector
Preceptor
$125 per month plus $20 for each shift assigned to MICU
$50 per month
$25 per shift while assigned as Preceptor
The assignment pay will be in addition to the pay allocated for the rank at the time of assignment. For
example, a firefighter assigned as paramedic will receive the pay for a firefighter plus $125 per month plus
$20 for each shift assigned to the MICU. If the employee discontinues the paramedic assignment, that
employee reverts back to the previous rank and the assignment pay is discontinued. The same is true if the
reassignment is made with cause or is in the best interest of the department. Fire Department employees
will not be eligible for assignment pay while on leave for any reason.
Police officers assigned to CID rotation will receive assignment pay as follows:
CID

5. SHIFT DIFFERENTIAL PAY:
Dispatchers who work the evening shift will receive an additional pay of$25 per month. Police Officers,
Police Sergeants, Police Lieutenants, and Dispatchers who work deep night shift will receive an additional
