   (2)   For Classified Exempt employees with a City seniority date on or after January 1, 2009, the provision of Section 2101.58(e)(1) with respect to pension pick-up does not apply.

(Ord. 8-09. Passed 1-20-09.)

   (f)   Employees who are "red circled" at a rate above the authorized rate for their classification shall receive no increases in their red-circled rates, but shall be given a lump sum payment computed by multiplying the percentage increase in "Hay Rates" that year by their base annual red-circle rate. Annual lump sum payments shall continue until the increases in the authorized ("Hay") rates provided in the foregoing paragraphs of this section causes those rates to equal or exceed the employees' red-circle rates. These lump sum payments, which shall not be added to the base rates, shall be payable the first full pay period of January of each year to those red-circled employees then on the payroll. In the year in which the Hay Rate equals or exceeds the red-circled rate for employees, the employees shall receive a lump sum computed by adding the percentage increase in the Hay Rate that year to their red-circle rate and subtracting their new Hay Rate. They shall then be paid at their new Hay Rate.

   (g)   An employee who is promoted or who works above his/her classification will receive the Promotional Starting Rate of the class to which the employee has been promoted unless the Promotional Starting Rate of the new classification is less than four percent (4%) greater than the rate the employee was earning in his/her regular classification. If the Promotional Starting Rate of the new classification is not at least four percent (4%) greater than the rate the employee was earning in his/her regular classification, then the employee shall receive the full rate of the new classification. Promoted employees at the Promotional Starting Rate will remain at the rate for one (1) year after their appointment to that classification subject to paragraph (f). The Promotional Starting rates shall be as follows:

   (i)   Whenever it becomes necessary to determine the hourly or daily rate of pay for an employee whose rate is stated herein as an annual salary, the determination shall be made by dividing the annual salary by two thousand eighty (2,080) to determine the hourly rate, or by two hundred sixty (260) to determine the daily rate of compensation for the employee.

   (j)   In addition to the above amounts, employees in Salary Groups one (1) through fifteen (15) appointed prior to July 1, 1982, shall be entitled to and be paid longevity pay for their years of service with the City. Employees hired prior to July 1, 1972, shall be paid longevity based on their years of service with the City as of that date. Employees hired after July 1, 1972, shall be paid longevity based on their continuous service to the City after that date. Any employee hired after July 1, 1972, shall not receive credit for any prior service to the City for the purpose of determining the longevity pay to which the employee may be entitled.

   The employee's longevity pay shall be determined either by multiplying the longevity hourly base rate by the appropriate percentage as listed below or by way of the charts set forth in paragraph (a) above. Employees shall continue to receive longevity pay based on their present longevity base rate, or at the rate listed below, or at the rate provided in paragraph (a), whichever is greater. Employees promoted will receive the base rate designated below for their new salary group, or retain their present longevity base rate, or the rate provided in paragraph (a), whichever is greater.
