JEFFERSON COUNTY
BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
TO: Board of County Commissioners
FROM: Mark McCauley,County Administrator
Sarah Melancon,Human Resources Director
DATE: December 23,2024
SUBJECT: Amending Pay Rate for Jefferson County's Administrator in Resolution No.
53-1014-24R
STATEMENT OF ISSUE:
On October 14, 2024 the Board of County Commissioners Adopted the 2024, 2025, & 2026 Salary
Schedules for the FLSA and Exempt Management and Professional Employees in Resolution No. 53-1014-
24R. In that Resolution the County Administrator pay rate was listed as a flat rate. For consistency with
other FLSA and Exempt Management and Professional Employees, the County Administrator position
compensation should also be established as a wage range.
ANALYSIS:
The current, adopted wage rate for the County Administrator in Resolution No. 53-1014-24R is listed as a
flat rate;with no dollar amount. A flat rate is inconsistent with the methodology used to establish a wage
range for other FLSA and Exempt Management and Professional Employee positions. A wage range allows
for clear communication of the pay rate for a position, and any year to year increase as approved by the
Board of Commissioners. The Human Resources Director completed an analysis of the pay rate for County
Administrator positions for comparable counties to determine the appropriate rate.
In addition, advertising and recruiting for vacant positions requires the establishment of a wage range which
allows the hiring authority to establish the rate in response to an applicant's qualifications and experience.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the Amended resolution to establish a pay range for the County Administrator position.
