Adoption of Resolution No. 2025-36 Establishing Salary and Benefits for
the City Council of the City of Rosemead Effective July 1, 2025, and
Including a Monthly Auto and Communications Allowance in Lieu of
Reimbursement In lieu of submitting individual mileage reimbursement
claims, staff recommends establishing a fixed monthly auto allowance for
Council Members. This approach ensures fair compensation, simplifies
administration, and aligns with practices in neighboring cities. In addition,
staff recommends providing a separate monthly allowance to support
accessibility and technology needs, such as mobile devices, internet
connectivity, or virtual meeting tools, in lieu of processing individual
reimbursement requests. Consistent with City policy, Council benefits
including Cafeteria-style Health, Welfare, and Savings plans, as well as
wellness program benefits will also be updated to reflect recent
enhancements proposed to employee groups.
Recommendation: That the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2025-36,
entitled: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
ROSEMEAD, CALIFORNIA, ESTABLISHING SALARY AND BENEFITS FOR
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ROSEMEAD EFFECTIVE JULY 1,
2025, AND INCLUDING A MONTHLY AUTO AND COMMUNICATIONS
ALLOWANCE IN LIEU OF REIMBURSEMENT
