based on the number of years that such employee has
been employed by the City. Each year, the City Council
shall review and establish these salary levels for each
job classification as to the minimum and maximum salary
levels thereof, plus any interim step levels.
B. Determination of Review Dates. For purpose of
determining annual salary review dates„ an employee who
is hired between the 1st and 15th day of the month

date as of the first of the month of such employment.

paid at the minimum salary level of the job classifica-
tion for which he is hired, provided however that the
City Council may, in its sole discretion, authorize the
payment to any new employee of a salary level based on
an interim step level at the end of the first year,
second year, third year or at the maximum step salary
level according to the experience and/or qualifications

Not at Maximum. Department heads may, in their discre-
tion, recommend to the City Council step -salary in -
creases each year for an employee on 'the annual salary
review date for satisfactory job performance pursuant
to the review process outlined in paragraph E below,
provided, however, that no annual salary for an
employee may exceed the maximum annual salary amount
determined by the City Council based on the number of
years that such employee has been employed with the
City. Where an employee's job performance has been
evaluated as being less than satisfactory, the depart-
ment head may refuse to recommend any increase or, may
recommend 'an increase which may be less in amount than
the aforesaid step -level amount.
In case of superior or excellent job performance,
nothing herein contained shall prevent or prohibit a
department head from recommending to the City Council

an increase in salary greater than the step -level
salary increase as otherwise determined by the

uled in the step -salary table for that year in ques-
tion: provided, however, that no salary increase shall
be granted to any employee which, if granted, would
produce a salary in excess of the maximum salary auth-
orized for the job classification or description held
by such employee.

performance of such employee shall be evaluated in a
written performance appraisal by the employee's immedi-
ate supervisor (or department head where there is no
supervisor), and shall be reviewed by the department
head, who shall either recommend that such employee be
granted or be denied the step -salary increase, or such
other increase that such supervisor determines to be
merited. A copy of the performance evaluation or appr-
aisal shall be furnished to the employee by the super-
visor (or department head where no supervisor exists)
before any recommendation is made by the department
head to the City Council. A progress interview may be
conducted by a supervisor (or department head where
there is no supervisor) of an eligible employee six
months prior to such employee's annual anniversary date
for the purposes of making an interim review of such
employee's job performance. Additional interviews may
be conducted if such supervisor (or department head
where there is no supervisor) desires. These job
progress review procedures shall apply only to
