BY: Human Resources Committee, Sue Ann Douglas, Chairperson
IN RE: RECOMMENDED FISCAL YEAR 2011 SALARY RECOMMENDATIONS
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
The Human Resources Committee recommends the following actions:
1. Decrease the current salary ranges for salary grades 1 – 21 by 1.5% effective September 25,
2010. This date is the beginning of the first pay period for fiscal year 2011.
2. Decrease all remaining classifications not represented by bargaining units by 1.5% effective
September 25, 2010 including County Executive appointed officials classes designated as
exceptions to salary grades 1 – 21 part-time and hourly classes students and summer and
seasonal classes but excluding:
a. Circuit Probate and District Court Judges which are currently at the maximum rate allowed: and
b. Appointed Board and Commission members: and
c. Commissioners addressed by Miscellaneous Resolution #10025: and
d. The County Clerk/Register of Deeds, the Water Resources Commissioner the Sheriff the County
Treasurer, the Prosecuting Attorney and the Assistant Prosecutors.
Note: The county-wide elected officials are exempted because 1879 PA 154.MCL 45.421 provides
that the annual salary of each salaried county officer shall be fixed by the Board before November
1 each year and shall not be diminished during the term for which the officer has been elected or
appointed. Similarly 1925 PA 329 MCL 49.34 provides that the salaries of assistant prosecuting
attorneys shall be fixed by the Board and shall not be diminished during the term for which they
were appointed. However, given the economic situation facing the State and County and the
reductions proposed herein, in order to maintain and stabilize service levels for Oakland County
taxpayers, it is recommended that the Elected Officials and Assistant Prosecuting Attorneys
voluntarily donate an amount equivalent to 1.5% of their salary back to the County.
3. Re-title the part-time non-eligible Seasonal Program Specialist 1 classifications to Seasonal
Program Specialist with the following hourly salary range:
BASE 1 YEAR 2 YEAR 3 YEAR
11.3526 12.4326 13.9259 15.6743
