Regarding the goals-setting process, Mayor Torrey urged the councilors to identify the goals they wanted to <br />accomplish, and generate support for those goals from their peers and the manager. He thought the goals- <br />setting process had became so huge that certain goals had no champion, and therefore no way to be <br />accomplished. <br /> <br />Mayor Torrey shared some of Mr. Meisner's concerns regarding what he termed %ompensation creep," but <br />said there was nothing to indicate the manager did not deserve a step increase. Mr. Meisner noted his <br />concurrence. <br /> <br /> Ms. Taylor, seconded by Mr. Kelly, moved to approve a COLA increase for the City <br /> Manager. <br /> <br />Mr. Pap6 suggested the manager be compensated because he deserved a raise, not because the price of <br />ketchup went up. <br /> <br /> The motion passed, 7:1; Mr. Pap6 voting no. <br /> <br /> Mr. Farr, seconded by Ms. Nathanson, moved to advance the manager to Step 6 (a <br /> $6,218 annual increase). <br /> <br />Mr. Pap6 determined from Mr. Chouinard that the total compensation increase would be approximately <br />$10,000, an eight-percent increase over the past year. <br /> <br />Ms. Nathanson thought the overtime hours put in by Mr. Johnson as a result of issues facing the City that <br />must be addressed indicated that much active involvement was required on the part of the manager in <br />managing the organization. She considered the step increase an acknowledgment that the job in Eugene was <br />more difficult and complicated than it was in other cities. <br /> <br />Mr. Pap6 asked Mr. Chouinard for comparative information about percentage increases in comparable <br />private industries for chief executive officers. Mr. Chouinard indicated that such information was very <br />difficult to procure from the private sector. Mr. Pap6 said that in his industry, merit increases averaged 3 <br />percent to 3.5 percent. Mr. Chouinard indicated that the percentage increase related to the step increase was <br />5 percent, which was typical in the organization. <br /> <br />Ms. Bettman opposed the motion because the manager started at Step 4, an escalated level, and because of <br />the compensation in comparable communities, which indicated the manager was at or above the compensa- <br />tion of other managers. She also thought there were some areas of serious concern that she wanted to see <br />improvement in. <br /> <br />Mr. Kelly said if he thought that the motion was reflective of the manager's performance alone, he would <br />vote for the motion. <br /> <br />Mayor Torrey indicated he would vote to support a step increase in the case of a tie vote. <br /> <br />MINUTES--Eugene City Council Work Session <br /> <br /> <br />
