DISCUSSION
California Code of Regulations, Section 570.5 requires the governing body of local agencies contracting with CalPERS to approve and adopt a publicly available pay schedule in accordance with public meeting laws.

The updated salary schedules are effective on September 24, 2022, October 8, 2022 and December 31, 2022. The September 24, 2022 and October 8, 2022 salary schedules are in accordance with negotiated increases with the various associations that have already been approved by this governing body and reflected in current Memorandum of Understandings. The December 31, 2022 salary schedule is in accordance with the January 1, 2023 California minimum wage increase.
