7. WAIVER OF COMPENSATION, SALARY ADVANCEMENT POLICY Approve a waiver of Compensation, Salary Advancement Policy, Section VI. This waiver would allow a salary advancement to $19.43 per hour for Linda Pessin retroactively to July 11, 2011. The Assessor’ Office will absorb the financial impact of the retroactive pay raise for Ms. Pessin. The Assessor’s Office advances employees from Appraiser II to Appraiser III upon completion of a number of criteria detailed in the Appraiser Career Path approved by the Board of Supervisors on May 6, 2009. Pursuant to that plan an advancement committee met on June 9, 2011 to review the qualifications of Ms. Pessin. The committee unanimously agreed to pass Ms. Pessin on to an Appraiser III position. Due to a clerical error she did not receive her increase at the appropriate time. A salary advancement effective August 8, 2011 was submitted and approved increasing her pay from $18.50 to $19.43. To correct the error the Assessor’s Office is requesting her pay be increased retroactively to July 11, 2011. This action will appropriately place the employee in the salary range respective to the pay period in which the action should have been processed. A retroactive expense of $175.21 (Wages $148.80 and Benefits 26.41 ) is being requested from July 11, 2011 to August 7, 2011. (C-12-12-001-M-00)
