To the Honorable City Council:
I respectfully request an appropriation of $8,865 from the Salary & Wage Stabilization Fund to the Somerstat Salaries Account for the purpose of funding a temporary salary adjustment.
The ICS Commander has recently left the employ of the City. The Mayor has designated the SomerStat Director to fill the ICS Commander role. FEMA will fund the differential between the Somerstat Director salary and the salary of the ICS Commander, but not the entire salary amount. The ICS Commander role will be funded from both the General Fund Somerstat Director position and FEMA.
The ICS Commander role is a full-time position. To fill the role of Somerstat Director in the absence of the current incumbent, the Mayor has designated the Senior Somerstat Analyst. The appropriation in the amount of $8,865 funds the salary differential between the positions of Senior Somerstat Analyst and Somerstat Director for a period of 15.6 weeks, from March 8, 2021 to June 30, 2021. The difference amounts to $568.22 per week.
My staff will be available to address any questions you may have. Thank you for your consideration of this item.
Respectfully Submitted,
Joseph A. Curtatone, Mayor
