TITLE
Recommendation to adopt resolution which amends the Water Department Resolution No. WD-1244, approving the compensation fixed by the Board of Water Commissioners of the City for Officers and Employees in the Water Department.  (Citywide)
 
DISCUSSION
On June 26, 2008, the Board of Water Commissioners approved Resolution No. WD-1244 fixing compensation of Water Department employees. The City of Long Beach (City) recently executed a new Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the International Association of Machinists Union (lAM) which was adopted by the City Council on May 6, 2008. As a result of changes made in the MOU, Water Department staff has reconciled the Water Department Salary Resolution to include these changes.
 
The Water Department also modified the section in the Water Department Salary Resolution that addresses compensation for Water Department management employees.  The increase or decrease in compensation for Water Department management employees in a fiscal year has been revised from 12 percent to seven percent. This change now reflects the language adopted by the City Council in the City's Salary Resolution.
 
We respectfully request that you approve the attached Resolution approving the Water Department's Resolution No. WD-1244, as adopted.
