shall appear on the November 1986 ballot; and
WHEREAS, this initiative severely damages California's
competitive position in retaining and attracting top talent to
public service positions, and;
WHEAREAS, the arbitrary limits set by the initiative are
in conflict with the marketplace in which California must compete
for technical and managerial skills, and;

due to the arbitrary limits it establishes and the compaction
problems it creates with respect to salary structures, and;

could suffer serious, perhaps irreparable damage as a result of
the loss of competent managers that the initiative would cause,

could actually result in higher, not lower, pensions for some
already highly compensated former public officials,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of
the City of Lynwood opposes the so-called "California Fair Pay"
Initiative and urges its defeat by the voting public.
