12. Merit Performance Salary Advancements: Permanent employees in the Deputy
County ministrator deep class shall be eligible for a salary advancement
of up to 2 steps on the salary range upon their assigned anniversary date
based on the employee' s performance. (For employees serving a probation period,
the anniversary date typically occurs at the completion of probation and an-
nually thereafter; however, in some instances, the Salary Regulations and Section
4 of this resolution provide for other anniversary dates.) Additionally, ef-
fective on the date of any reassignment as provided for in Section 7 of this
resolution or upon the date of any transfer or reallocation to Deputy County
Administrator and continuing for a period of six months thereafter, the incumbent
will be subject to performance review by the County Administrator and may be
subject to reassignment or salary adjustment for less than Satisfactory per-
formance.
The County Administrator will conduct performance evaluations periodically,
typically annually prior to the employee's anniversary date and at any other
appropriate time. The performance evaluation will be based on performance of
assigned functions which will be established by the County Administrator.
12a. Standard Performance. If an employee receives an overall rating of
STANDARD from the County Administrator the employee may be advanced up to two
(2) steps on the salary range provided however that said advancement may not
exceed the maximum base salary rate for the assigned responsibility level as
designated in Section 2.
12b. Outstandin Performance. If an employee receives an overall rating of
Outstan ing from the County Administrator, the employee may be advanced up
to three (3) steps on the salary range (i .e. , ordinarily this would be two (2)
steps for standard performance and one (1 ) additional step for outstanding
performance). However, if the employee is at the maximum base step, up to two
(2) steps may be granted for Outstanding Performance; or if the employee is at
one step less than the maximum base step, one (1 ) step for standard perform-
ance and two (2) steps for Outstanding Performance may be granted). In no
case, however, may advancement exceed by more than two (2) steps the maximum
base salary step for the responsibility level to which the incumbent's position
is allocated.
The County Administrator may conduct an evaluation of an employee's
performance at a time other than the employee's anniversary date. If the
employee receives an overall rating of Outstanding, the employee may be ad-
vanced on the salary range up to the maximum step the employee could have
received for Outstanding Performance on the prior anniversary date (as described
above) ; said adjustment may not be effective sooner than 90 days after any other
adjustment to the employee's salary excluding general adjustments to the salary
range.
Any step or steps awarded to reflect outstanding performance shall remain
in effect only until the day prior to the employee's next anniversary date and
will terminate on that date at the close of business or at the County Admini-
strator' s discretion, whichever is sooner.
12c. Below Standard Performance. If an employee receives an overall rating
of BELOW STANDARD from the County.Administrator the employee may be awarded,
at the County Administrator's discretion, no merit performance salary advance-
ment and may be held at the current step until re-evaluated. Such employee may
also be subject to Y-Rate or reduction in salary as provided in the Salary
Regulations. An employee who receives an overall rating of Below Standard may
be re-evaluated at any time during the subsequent year and, if the employee then
receives a rating of STANDARD or OUTSTANDING, the employee's salary may be adjusted
in accordance with Sections 12a and b above. The decision of the County Administrator
shall be final .
