A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUKWILA
WASHINGTON, AMENDING RESOLUTION NO. 1621, UPDATING AND
CLARIFYING THE NON REPRESENTED EMPLOYEES' COMPENSATION
AND ADOPTING THE NON REPRESENTED SALARY SCHEDULE AND
BENEFITS SUMMARY EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2008.
WHEREAS, the Tukwila City Council has conducted a review of the non
represented employees' compensation system that was originally implemented in
January 1998; and
WHEREAS, the City Council recognizes that current economic conditions and
forecasts are a consideration in actions that deal with the compensation of employees;
and
WHEREAS, the City Council has made a determination to review the non-
represented compensation for even numbered years and provide COLA's in odd
numbered years; and
WHEREAS, a compensation study has been conducted and the recommended non-
represented wage schedule and benefit information has been prepared for
implementation on January 1, 2008,
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUKWILA,
WASHINGTON, HEREBY RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The following statements have been used for the purpose of adopting the
non represented employees' wages for 2008 and consideration for future years.
A. The following basic plan elements remain the same:
1. Decision Band Methodology (DBM) for creating classifications.
2. Market analysis using comparable jurisdictions' top step wages.
3. Regression line analysis to establish the Control Point for each DBM rating
with a range of 12.5% and 30% used to establish the steps (regression line analysis
provided by Fox Lawson Associates, LLC based on Personnel Department acquired
market data).
4. Steps below the Control Point are automatic as individuals move through the
system.
5. Ranges A11 -D61 are established based on 90% of the Seattle- Tacoma-
Bremerton Semi- Annual Consumer Price Index (CPI -W) Average (first half of 2006 to
first half of 2007).
6. Ranges for D62 -F102 are established based on the outcome of the trend line
analysis.
7. A market adjustment may be applied to a position when the wage survey
results establish a new control point, which is 10% or more below the market; and

internal compression exists within the career ladder, or where there is difficulty in
recruiting and /or retaining qualified employees. The integrity of the Decision Band
Method (DBM) is maintained, while recognizing a wage gap based on market
conditions for a specific position. The market adjustment shall be calculated by taking
the difference between the newly- established control point and the market average
wage for the position, and applying it on top of the established salary range for the
positions. This market adjustment shall be reviewed every two years as part of the
salary study and may be eliminated or changed based on the results of the survey.
B. The non represented salary schedule for 2008 provides an average 4.6% increase
to the salary schedule bringing the positions up to the current CPI -W as shown in
Section A.5. and A.6. above, and to the regression trend analysis line, as appropriate.
C. The City shall continue to conduct in -house market analysis of the non
represented compensation system during odd numbered years, using outside
assistance on regression line analysis calculations, as needed. The results of the analysis
will be implemented on January 1 of the following even numbered year.
D. A COLA shall be applied each January 1 during odd numbered years based on
the Seattle- Tacoma- Bremerton Consumer Price Index (CPI -W) Average (first half of
2006 to first half of 2007).
E. The Decision Band method of job evaluation will be used to establish
classifications and the relative internal value and relationship of non represented jobs
within the City of Tukwila.
F. Merit will continue to be eliminated from the plan at this time and may be
reconsidered as a plan element in subsequent years.
G. Step increases from the minimum to the control point for all positions shall be
given annually on the employee's performance review date. There will be no step
increases for employees at or above the control point.
Section 2. Non represented salary schedule and benefits summary.
A. The non represented salary schedule, "Attachment A" hereto, is hereby
approved, effective January 1, 2008.
B. The non represented benefits summary, "Attachment B" hereto, is hereby
approved, effective January 1, 2008.
