SUMMARY

Each year following budget deliberations your Board adopts the annual salary ordinance. The ordinance enacts the decisions made during budget hearings concerning the number of positions in the County service. The ordinance is the base document identifying the number of authorized positions and classifications for all County jobs. It also establishes the compensation and certain benefits other than base pay for County officers and employees for fiscal year 2006-2007. Base pay and other compensation is established by resolution for each employee group and is listed herein as the amount paid for each bi-weekly pay period for information only. Throughout the year salary ordinance amendments indicate changes in positions and the compensation established herein that occur in the various operating departments.

The total number of positions authorized by your Board during budget hearings is 5,717. One hundred and fifty-six (156) positions were added during FY 05-06 and 98 positions were added in the Fiscal Year 2006-2007 budget. The positions are distributed among the departments as follows:
