§ 707. Pay plan for exempt positions.

The Personnel Officer, not later than the first day of February of each year, shall prepare and transmit to the Executive a proposed pay plan for officers and employees in the exempt service of the County, excluding elected officials. The Executive in the preparation of the annual expense budget shall consider for incorporation therein the pay plan changes recommended by the Personnel Officer. Prior to adoption of the annual expense budget ordinance, the Council shall approve such of the proposed pay plan changes for exempt positions as it may deem proper. Should it approve less than the amounts contained in the annual expense budget, it shall adjust the appropriations sought for the various budget units in the light of such action. The law enacting the pay plan for exempt positions shall be effective on the first day of the ensuing fiscal year.
