Regular City Council Meeting <br />Monday, December 5, 2016 <br />Page 19 <br />should be for thoughtful budgeting. Councilmember Etten reiterated that he <br />didn't support using money for ongoing budget allocations to reduce the levy with <br />a one-time shot. <br />Councilmember Willmus clarified that with his next proposal, the city still had the <br />ability to allocate as much as $518,000 toward CIP needs. <br />Councilmember Etten opined that it still didn't address nor was it relevant to the <br />philosophical question of how much was proposed for use for ongoing expenses. <br />Even if $900,000 was allocated to CIP from these reserves, Councilmember Etten <br />noted that there was still a need of $20 million in the CIP over the next twenty <br />years, and one way or the other, they were still taxpayer dollars. While Coun- <br />cilmember Willmus' proposal may avoid a budget shift by reducing the levy per- <br />centage now, Councilmember Etten opined that the city would simply have to pay <br />far it at one point, and it will come due. <br />Councilmember Laliberte asked Councilmember Willmus to clarify the $518,000 <br />proposed by him as part of the next discussion. <br />Councilmember Willmus clarified that his proposal would be to use $406,000 <br />from the carry forward funds to offset the levy, with a remaining $300,000 still <br />remaining unallocated from TIF. <br />Assuming City Manager Trudgeon's recommended 2.75% COLA for 2017 was <br />not chosen randomly, Mayar Roe asked City Manager Trudgeon to address the ra- <br />tionale behind his recommendation. <br />City Manager Trudgeon noted references by individual council members already <br />related to the previous compensation study findings with a number of employees <br />significantly below peer comparisons; and the City Council's policy established in <br />2013 for Roseville city employees set at 98% of the average. With that policy in <br />mind, Mr. Trudgeon reported that current comparisons to peer communities indi- <br />cated that Roseville had still fallen behind the average at 1.45%, or approximately <br />96% of the policy guidelines. For 2017, Mr. Trudgeon reported that average <br />COLA for peer communities was 2.56%; and in consideration of current policy <br />guidelines using CPI and ECI indexes, compensation studies, peer city and em- <br />ployee market comparisons, recommended that the City Council reconsider and <br />avoid further slippage with a 2°/o COLA, even if not fully supporting his recom- <br />mendation of 2.75%. <br />City Manager Trudgeon noted this was also a fairness or equity issue with real <br />numbers for union and non-union employees; with non-union employees continu- <br />ing behind union employees; with a 2% COLA only further increasing that dispar- <br />ity. Mr. Trudgeon also cautioned that the city was required to abide by state law <br />regarding pay equity requirements for the male/female pay equity, with signifi- <br />
