Body
Agenda of October 15 2025
Item No. 2025-249
TO: The Honorable
Board of Water Commissioners
City of Detroit, Michigan
FROM: Tiffany Jones, Interim Director of Human Resources/Organizational Development
Detroit Water & Sewerage Department
RE: Updated Salary Ranges for various classifications
MOTION
Upon recommendation of Tiffany Jones, Interim Director of Human Resources & Organizational Development, the Board of Water Commissioners for the City of Detroit Water and Sewerage Department approves the updated salary ranges for various classifications and authorizes the Director to take such action as may be necessary to accomplish the intent of this vote.
BACKGROUND/JUSTIFICATION
In September, the Official Compensation Schedule, including new classifications and salary ranges, was presented to the Board of Water Commissioners. The schedule was developed following a comprehensive compensation study, which determined that DWSD was not consistently paying at or above market rates for certain classifications.
As a result, a revised salary structure was created, assigning each position an appropriate market-aligned pay range. This updated structure was reviewed by the Human Resources Committee on September 3, 2025, and subsequently approved by the Board at its regular meeting on September 17, 2025.
These classifications were not previously presented to this Honorable Body.
