Subject:Salary Resolution No. 2015/407 Increasing Salaries of Certain Unrepresented Attorneys
BACKGROUND:
Contra Costa County has historically tied unrepresented attorney classes to the represented classes in the Contra
Costa Defenders' and Deputy District Attorney' Associations for purposes of salary parity. On October 20, 2015,
the Board of Supervisors will consider adopting a new memorandum of understanding with the Deputy District
Attorney' Associations that included wage increases. Resolution No. 2015/407 increases unrepresented attorney
classification salaries by 5.0% effective October 1, 2015, 4.5% effective July 1, 2016, and 4.5% effective July 1,
2017 in order to retain parity with represented attorney classes.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The County could be detrimentally impacted by the potential loss of highly-trained legal personnel.
