MEMORANDUM
TO:
Mayor Brian Gabriel and Kenai City Council
THROUGH:
Paul Ostrander, City Manager
FROM:
Terry Eubank, Finance Director
DATE:
May 11, 2021
SUBJECT:
Ordinance 3211-2021 Adopting the FY22 Budget - Substitute
The purpose of this memo is to recommend movement of and enactment of Substitute Ordinance
3211-2021. A substitute is being provided to include adoption of the City's Employee
Classification Plan with adoption of the Annual Budget for the City of Kenai, Alaska July 1-, 2021
— June 30, 2022 consistent with the provision of Ordinance 3210-2021. The following is a
summary of changes to employee class titles and pay ranges which have been included for your
consideration:
New Positions:
207 IT Desktop Support Technician Range 13
A new class title to reflect a new part-time position in the Finance Department to provide
City-wide Information Technology (IT) support
504 Recreation Center Worker Range 1
A new class title to reflect five new part-time positions in the Parks and Recreation
Department to provide assistance at the Recreation Center
Removed Positions:
507 Activities/Volunteer Coordinator Range 2.4
Ordinance 3179-2021 amended the position to add administrative support duties and fill
the vacant position with an Administrative Assistant II
510 Outreach Worker Range 1.1
The duties of this part-time position have been performed by other positions beginning in
2018, and the position has not been filled
Amended Positions:
414 Wastewater Treatment Plant Foreman Range 21
Amended from "Sewer Treatment Plant Foreman" for consistency with other Wastewater
Treatment Plant class titles in Public Works
Pay Ranae Recalculation
The pay ranges for all positions were adjusted to eliminate rages with decimal points and
create consistency in the percentage change between ranges. Ranges below 3 were
recalibrated to a 5% change per range, and the minimum pay for a City position was set
at $12.75 per hour. All other pay ranges were renumbered, and the entire salary scale
was stretched to include 29 ranges where there were only 24 before. This change resulted
in minimal increase in compensation to positions that were below range 3 prior to this
change.
Creation of Temporary Employee Pay Table
The administration is recommending the addition of a temporary employee pay table.
Temporary employees are hired for a pre -established period, usually during peak
workloads and for not more than six months, and are ineligible for benefits and holiday
pay. A temporary employee pay table will allow adjustments to temporary positions without
impacting the pay range of permanent employees.
Expansion of Department Head Service Ranges
Additional pay ranges have been included for department head service employees to
include all department head positions of the City. In addition to adding additional ranges
to the table, all were renumbered consistent with the pay range recalculation noted
above.
Your support for movement and enactment of Ordinance 3211-2021 is respectfully requested.

MEMORANDUM
TO: File
THROUGH: Paul Ostrander, City Manager
DATE: June 4, 2021
SUBJECT: Amendment to Substitute Ordinance 3211-2021 to Correct
Typographical Errors
Substitute Ordinance 3211-2021 included adoption of the City's Salary Schedule and Employee
Classification Plan with adoption of the Annual Budget for the City of Kenai, Alaska July 1-, 2021
— June 30, 2022. Since the Ordinance was approved, two typographical errors were discovered
within the Employee Classification Plan:
• On page 5, in Section 5, the Classification Plan shows the Library Aide at Range 7, and
this should be Range 8.
• On page 6, in Section 5, the Classification Plan shows the Recreation Center Worker
with Class Code 504, and this should be 503.
These two typographical errors did not materially change Substitute Ordinance 3211-2021 or
have a monetary impact as the correct class code, range, and salary are included in the Annual
Budget.
The amendment to the Library Aide Range was part of a pay range recalculation for all positions
to eliminate ranges with decimal points and create consistency in the percentage change between
ranges. All pay ranges were renumbered and, as indicated in the supporting memo for the
Ordinance, were not intended to create a decrease in pay for any class of employees. The correct
recalculation for the Library Aide is a Range 8.
The Recreation Center Worker is a new class title to reflect five new part-time positions at the
Kenai Recreation Center. This class of employees had not previously had a Class Code assigned,
and Class Code 504 has already been assigned to the Parks, Beautification and Recreation
Operator Class of employees. The correct Class Code for the Recreation Center Worker is 503.
Substitute Ordinance No. 3211-2021 has been amended to correct the two typographical errors
found on pages 5 and 6.

MEMORANDUM
TO: File
FROM: Paul Ostrander, City Manager
DATE: July 13, 2021
SUBJECT: Second Amendment to Substitute Ordinance 3211-2021 to Correct
Typographical Errors
Substitute Ordinance 3211-2021 included adoption of the City's Salary Schedule and Employee
Classification Plan with adoption of the Annual Budget for the City of Kenai, Alaska July 1-, 2021
— June 30, 2022. On June 4, 2021 and was amended to correct two typographical errors found
on pages 5 and 6. These two typographical errors did not change the meaning of Substitute
Ordinance 3211-2021 or have a monetary impact as the correct class code, range, and salary
are included in the Annual Budget.
On July 13, 2021, an additional typographical error was discovered on page 6. In Section 5 of
the Ordinance, the Classification Plan shows the Janitor as a Range 6, and this should be a
Range 3. This error also occurs on pages 22, 338, and 341 of the Annual Budget; however, the
correct amounts were appropriated in the Ordinance and included in the Annual Budget and the
staffing tables. This typographical error does not change the meaning of the Ordinance or have
a monetary impact.
The amendment to the Janitor Range was part of a pay range recalculation for all positions to
eliminate ranges with decimal points and create consistency in the percentage change between
ranges. All pay ranges were renumbered and, as indicated in the supporting memo for the
Ordinance, were applied uniformly to all positions to move all positions to the closest grade on
the new schedule. The correct recalculation for the Janitor is a Range 3.
Substitute Ordinance No. 3211-2021 has been amended to correct this typographical error and
the Annual Budget document is being updated to reflect the change.
