A single amendment is being proposed to the Executive Pay Plan: to clarify and
implement language that provides for acost-of-living adjustment (COLA) for EPP
employees that is equivalent to employees of other non-sworn bargaining groups.
Discussion
The Executive Pay Plan (EPP) establishes the terms and conditions of employment for
Department Heads and other at-will employees who receive the EPP benefits as a part
of their separate employment contracts. It is proposed to amend the EPP to provide a
cost-of-living adjustment for FY2009-10 that will give the EPP parity with other non-
sworn employees. -That COLA will be 2%, which will also be provided to all non-sworn
employees per the terms of their respective Memoranda of Understanding for
FY2009-2010.
