SECTION II
Regulations for Pay Classification System
(a) Wage rates for all permanent full time employees and certain permanent
part time employees as determined by the Borough Administrator, are part of the Pay
Classification System. The Borough Administrator shall determine equal increments for
each position. Each increment shall be considered a step. The Borough Administrator
shall annually review the salary of each salaried employee covered by this plan for the
purpose of determining whether said employee shall be entitled to a step increase. The
Borough Administrator may advance an employee in that employee's grade until the
maximum step has been reached subject to budgetary limitations.
(b) New employees shall be paid the minimum step for his/her grade except that
the Borough Administrator shall have the discretion to determine whether said new
employee has qualifications greater than the minimum qualifications for the
classification. In the greater qualification situation, the employee may receive a salary
in a higher step.
(c) When an employee is promoted to a position in a higher classification, his/her
salary shall be increased to the minimum rate for the higher classification subject to the
discretion of the Borough Administrator. In the case of overlapping ranges, the salary of
promoted employee shall be increased to the step immediately above his present
salary, subject to the discretion of the Borough Administrator. When an employee is
demoted to lower classification, he/she shall be paid at a rate which is within the
approved range for the lower classification. The rate of pay shall be determined by the
Borough Administrator.
SECTION III
Overtime Pay, Pay Dates and Longevity Pay
Except as stated below, time worked, when approved by the Administrator or
his/her designee, which is in excess of regularly scheduled hours, will be paid at time
and one half of the base rate of pay including longevity and education pay (where
applicable). Department Supervisors and Office Heads are not eligible for overtime
pay except for circumstances as determined by the Administrator. The Administrator
may, at his/her discretion, approve compensatory time off for these management
positions guided by the number of previously approved hours worked beyond regularly
scheduled hours.
Salaries normally shall be paid on Friday of the week following the work week in
which the salary was earned. If requested in writing, salaries may be paid in advance
of vacations.
All officials and employees who have completed 15 years of service as of
December 31, 2008 shall receive longevity pay as described below. Percentages used
in the formula are only for the purpose of arriving at a dollar figure for individual salaries.
The longevity figure which the employee will receive in the current year is the final dollar
figure reached by using years of service, individual current year salaries and applicable
percentages.
YEARS OF SERVICE PERCENTAGE LONGEVITY PAYMENT
5 YRS 1.00%
10 YRS 2.50%
15 YRS 5.00%
20 YRS 7.75%
24 YRS 11.75%
All officials and employees who have not completed 15 years of service as of
December 31, 2008 shall receive longevity pay as described below. Percentages used
in the formula are only for the purpose of arriving at a dollar figure for individual salaries.
The longevity figure which the employee will receive in the current year is the final dollar
figure reached by using years of service, individual current year salaries and applicable
percentages.
YEARS OF SERVICE PERCENTAGE LONGEVITY PAYMENT
5 YRS 1.00%
10 YRS 2.50%
15 YRS 3.50%
20 YRS 4.50%
24 YRS 5.50%
No officials or employee hired after January 1, 2009 will be included in Longevity
pay.

incentives (where applicable). "Years of Service" means all time served with the
Borough including previous periods of employment as long as previous separation was
in good standing.
SECTION IV
All Ordinances or parts of Ordinances which are inconsistent with the provisions
of this Ordinance, are hereby repealed to the extent of such inconsistency.
SECTION V
If any section or provision of this ordinance shall be held unconstitutional or
invalid by any court, the remaining sections and provisions shall, notwithstanding such
holding, remain and be in full force and effect.

are hereby authorized to be issued in the principal amount of $13,575,000 pursuant to
the Local Bond Law. In anticipation of the issuance of the bonds, negotiable bond

purposes pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40A:12A-1 et seq.

been duly prepared and filed in the office of the Clerk, and a complete
executed duplicate thereof has been filed in the office of the Director of
