AGENDA ITEM TYPE:                                                                                                                        

Resolution

RECOMMENDATION:                                                                                                                       

Adopt resolution R2024-12-07 which sets compensation for district officers and administrative employees for 2024 and authorizes parameters that allow management to place jobs within the compensation structure as presented.                     

BACKGROUND:                                                                                                                                 

One of the duties of the Board of Trustees is to fix the compensation of all district officers and employees by resolution (Utah Code §17B-2a-810; UTA Bylaws Article II, Section 7; and Board Policy 1.3 (III)(C)(1)).

The compensation resolution sets compensation for all district officers, except the Board of Trustees, and for administrative employees.  The resolution proposes to update the 2024 Salary Structure with additional jobs.  

DISCUSSION:                                                                                                                                      

In March, April, July, and November 2024, the Board of Trustees adopted the 2024 Salary Structure as part of resolution R2024-03-05, R2024-04-02, R2024-07-02, and R2024-11-01. The Resolution included parameters that authorizes the Executive Director and Chief People Officer to place jobs within the compensation structure.

Since the resolution was adopted, additional jobs are being proposed as additions to the structure that does not meet those qualifications. The newly proposed position repurposes existing headcount and has funds available in the adopted 2024 and 2025 Operating Budgets.

 

 

The jobs added to the structure are listed below:

                     Assistant Manager Operations Service Delivery (MG1070)

                     Manager Operations Service Delivery (MG2201)

                     Director Operations Service Delivery (MG3108)

                     Labor Relations Program Manager (MG1071)

                     Chief of Board Strategy and Governance (EX1000)

 

ALTERNATIVES:                                                                                                                                    

If the current resolution is not adopted, UTA would not be able to fill certain positions that are not included in the salary structure.

FISCAL IMPACT:                                                                                                                                

This resolution does not increase approved headcount or existing budget authority. The proposed positions are a result of job reorganization and are included in UTA’s 2024 and 2025 Operating Budgets.
