BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
On February 7, 2018, the City of Moorpark and City Manager Troy Brown entered into an
Employment Agreement that set forth employment terms. Amendment No. 4 to
Mr. Brown’s Employment Agreement will amend Section 4.A. related to base salary so that
Mr. Brown receives the same salary adjustments granted to the City’s Non-Competitive
Service management employees. Amendment No. 4 makes the following changes to
Mr. Brown’s base salary:
a) Effective with the first full pay period commencing on or after July 1, 2021,
Mr. Brown shall receive a 2% cost-of-living allowance, which will result in an annual
base salary of $227,780.80 and increase his hourly rate to $109.51. He will also
receive a 2% one-time payment of $4,555.62.
b) Effective with the first full pay period commencing on or after July 1, 2022,
Mr. Brown shall receive a 2% cost-of-living allowance, which will result in an annual
base salary of $232,336.00 and increase his hourly rate to $111.70.
Attached is the draft Resolution for approval of Amendment No. 4 to the Employment
Agreement, which includes the draft of the proposed Amendment No. 4.
