Whenever there is to be the establishment of
a previously nonexisting salaried position or the abolishment of a
previously existing salaried position, the Personnel Board shall make
a preliminary and nonbinding recommendation to the Council relative
to the necessity of the creation of a new position, or the reasons
for the abolition of an existing position, and its fiscal impact on
the municipal budget.
A.
The Personnel Board, after making an affirmative determination
relative to the necessity of a new position and its fiscal impact
on the municipal budget, shall recommend to the City Council what
it ascertains to be an appropriate salary for the proposed position.
B.
This preliminary, nonbinding recommendation may be
based, in part, on a comparison of the actual salaries allocated to
the same or similar positions as established in other municipalities.
Other factors which may be considered are the responsibilities inherent
in the proposed position, the recommendations of the managing director
or appointing authority, and the recommendations of the Personnel
Director.

Whenever there is a formal request before the
Personnel Board for the reclassification of a classified employee
or a change in salary of an unclassified employee, the Personnel Board

is warranted and its fiscal impact on the municipal budget.
This article would affect, prospectively, all
existing or newly established municipal positions, including classified
union, classified nonunion, unclassified union and unclassified nonunion.
