Title
Communication from Mayor Jim Ardis and the Legal Department with a Recommendation to APPROVE a RESOLUTION to Increase the COMPENSATION of the CITY MANAGER by $3,787.06, to be Allocated as a Bonus, Salary Increase, Deferred Compensation, or Any Combination as Deemed Appropriate by the City Manager.

Body
BACKGROUND: The Mayor and the City Council conducted a performance review of the City Manager, Patrick Urich covering the period of January 1, 2018 through Dec. 31, 2018. Based upon that review, the attached Resolution increases Patrick Urich's compensation by $3,787.06 (2%) to be taken as a one-time bonus, an increase in base salary, an increase in deferred compensation or any combination deemed appropriate by the City Manager. Any increase in base salary is retroactive to January 1, 2019. It should be noted that the Mayor and Council approved a 3.5% increase for the period of Jan.1, 2017 through Dec. 31, 2017 but City Manager declined the increase due to budgetary concerns. Additionally, the City Manager again declined to take the 2% increase the City Council authorized for the period of January 1, 2018, to December 31, 2018; however, the Council directs that the City Manager must accept this increase in pay. The City Manager has not received a salary adjustment for three years.

FINANCIAL IMPACT: $3,787.06 will be distributed as a one-time bonus, an increase in base salary, increase in deferred compensation or any combination thereof.
