(a) Commencing in January 2017, and continuing indefinitely, all officials of the City shall be paid an annual wage in twenty-four semimonthly installments, as determined by the City Auditor. These installments shall be payable at the same time as the biweekly payroll in months where there are two pay dates, and in months with three pay dates, the biweekly payments shall be made only at the time of the first two pay dates of the month, and not on the third pay date of the month, resulting in twenty-four semimonthly payments for each year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the City Auditor is hereby authorized to make whatever changes or adjustments may
be needed to comply with all Ohio laws, rules, and regulations, including but not limited to pension payment requirements, as long as the total annual amounts for officials remain unchanged pursuant to the particular City and/or State provisions governing the same.
(b) Subsection (a) hereof shall apply to all City officials' salaries, except members of Council, including the Clerk of Council and the President of Council, who shall be paid once per month.
(c) All union employees' paydays are covered by an agreement between the City and their unions.
(d) All non-union employees' paydays are to be determined and paid on a biweekly basis.
