CITY COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO
TO: Mayor Jordan and Members of the Fayetteville City Council
THRU: Don Marr, Chief of Staff
FROM: Paul A Becker, Finance Director
DATE: March 4, 2011
SUBJECT: Appropriation Authority for Employee Compensation Adjustments
PROPOSAL:
The operating results from the fourth quarter of 2010 have been posted. The results for
fiscal 2010 show an operating surplus of approximately $1.1 million in the General Fund.
The budget had been formulated on the use $1.1 million from reserves. Thus, rather than
incurring a deficit a surplus was experienced.
This surplus was created through expense control. The Administration was able, through
good management, to hold expenditures $2.6 million dollars under budget. This not only
offset revenue declines but resulted in a surplus for the year. Other operating funds such
as the Street, Water and Sewer and Solid Waste funds also showed positive numbers for
the year.
Based on these results, the Mayor is recommending Service Awards to all permanent
employees who have worked for the City more than one year in recognition of their
service to the Citizens of Fayetteville. The Mayor is also recommending the resumption of
merit increases to those employees whose wages were frozen in July 2009. These
employees did not receive any increases in 2009 and these increases will put them on a
more equal basis with the employees who did receive raises in 2009.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommendation is for the City Council to appropriate monies to complete merit
increases which would have been given to employees during the last half of 2009 who
are still employed by the City. Staff also recommends monies be appropriated to fund
employee service awards for all permanent employees who have been with the City for
over one year as of March 1, 2011.
THE CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS
