COLA Adjustment. The provincial parties agree that in determining the level of any Cost of Living Adjustments (COLAs) that will be paid out starting on the first pay period after July 1, 2023 and July 1, 2024, respectively, the "annualized average of BC CPI over twelve months” in paragraph 2 of the Provincial Framework Agreement means the Latest 12-month Average (Index) % Change reported by BC Stats in March for British Columbia for the twelve months starting at the beginning of March the preceding year and concluding at the end of the following February. The percentage change reported by BC Stats that will form the basis for determining any COLA increase is calculated to one decimal point. The Latest 12-month Average Index, as defined by BC Stats, is a 12-month moving average of the BC consumer price indexes of the most recent 12 months. This figure is calculated by averaging index levels over the applicable 12 months. The Latest 12-month Average % Change is reported publicly by BC Stats in the monthly BC Stats Consumer Price Index Highlights report. The BC Stats Consumer Price Index Highlights report released in mid-March will contain the applicable figure for the 12-months concluding at the end of February. For reference purposes only, the annualized average of BC CPI over twelve months from March 1, 2021 to February 28, 2022 was 3.4%.
COLA Adjustment. At the beginning of each calendar year of this Agreement, commencing with January 1, 2006, and on such date each year thereafter (the "Adjustment Date"), the Base Salary shall be increased in accordance with the increase, if any, in the cost of living during the preceding one year as determined by the percentage increase in the Consumers Price Index-All Urban Consumers (U.S. City Average/all items) published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor (the "Index"). The average Index for calendar years 2003 and 2004 shall be considered the "Base." The Base Salary for the calendar year following each Adjustment Date shall be the Base Salary specified in Paragraph 4(b) increased by the percentage increase, if any, in the Index for the calendar year immediately preceding the Adjustment Date over the Base. In the event the Index shall cease to be published or the formula underlying the Index shall change materially from the formula used for the Index as of the date hereof, then there shall be substituted for the Index such other index of similar nature as is then generally recognized and accepted. In no event shall the Base Salary during each adjusted calendar year be less than that charged during the preceding year of this Agreement.
COLA Adjustment. COLA adjustments will be fully funded by the employees with the Town providing an initial actuarial study.
COLA Adjustment. Effective July 1, 2015 and July 1 of each year from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 20189 a COLA adjustment percentage increase shall be computed which shall not be less than 2% nor more than 5%. The COLA Adjustment percentage shall be determined by the rolling ten (10)-year average in the CPI-U for the Boston-Brockton-Nashua--MA-NH-ME-CT all items index as computed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor for the ten (10) most recent calendar years preceding the July 1 adjustment. BLS’s calendar year for this index is November through November, it is not published on a December to December basis. The reference base is 1982-1984 equals 100 until BLS updates the reference base at which time the parties agree to adopt the official reference based as used by BLS. Applicability After Contract Expires: It is clearly understood that in the event that the three year Working Agreement expires without a successor Working Agreement being settled prior to July 1, 20189 that no further COLA adjustments after July 1, 20178 will be generated under the Working Agreement even though the Working Agreement has an evergreen clause. It is further agreed that continuation of COLA adjustments are not to be deemed “status quo” as the term has been used by the PELRB in the event that a successor agreement has not been settled by July 1, 20189. Therefore the salary schedule effective 2015/16 will read as follows: CTE Director 210 $85,893 RJA Principal 217 $86,806 Large Elementary Principals 230 $98,305 High School Assistant Principals 210 $85,893 Middle School Principal 230 $102,651 High School Principal 230 $110,892 Middle School Asst.

Starting in the 2016-2017 school year, the parties will create a joint labor/management committee to study and make recommendations about possible performance based compensation systems for the Administrators’ bargaining unit, utilizing data from the implementation of the new Portsmouth Teachers’ Association collective bargaining agreement to inform the process.

COLA Adjustment. Commencing with January 1, 2012 and at the beginning of each calendar year of this Agreement thereafter (each an “Adjustment Date”), Executive’s Base Salary shall be increased in accordance with the increase, if any, in the cost of living during the preceding one year as determined by the percentage increase in the Consumers Price Index-All Urban Consumers (U.S. City Average/all items) published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor (the “Index”). The Base Salary for the calendar year following each Adjustment Date shall be the then current Base Salary increased by the percentage increase, if any, in the average annual Index for the calendar year immediately preceding the Adjustment Date (the “Preceding Year”) over the average annual Index for the calendar year immediately preceding the Preceding Year; provided, however, that, if the Base Salary as increased by this Section 4(c) for 2014 is less than 115% of the Base Salary as of the Effective Date, then, for 2014 and 2015 only, the annual increase in the Base Salary shall be the greater of five percent (5%) or the increase otherwise determined in accordance with this Section 4(c). In the event the Index shall cease to be published or the formula underlying the Index shall change materially from the formula used for the Index as of the date hereof, then there shall be substituted for the Index such other index of similar nature as is then generally recognized and accepted. In no event shall the Base Salary during each adjusted calendar year be less than that paid during the preceding year of this Agreement. By way of illustration, (i) on January 1, 2012, the Base Salary shall be increased by the average percentage increase, if any, in the Index for 2011 over 2010, and (ii) if the Base Salary is less than $385,250.00 on January 1, 2014, then the Base Salary shall be increased by no less than five percent (5%) for each of 2014 and 2015.

BLS's calendar year for this index is November through November. It is not published on a December to December basis. The reference base is 1982-1984 equals 100 until BLS updates the reference base at which time the parties agree to adopt the official reference based as used by BLS. The parties agree that in the event that the City approves COLA increases, general wage increases, or general bonuses for fiscal years 2009 through 2014 for any other City or School District bargaining unit, except the Association of Portsmouth Teachers, that are greater than the increases generated under the COLA Adjustment clause in this contract, members of this bargaining unit shall be entitled to the same increases.

BLS's calendar year for this index is November through November, it is not published on a December to December basis. The reference base is 1982-1984 equals 100 until BLS updates the reference base at which time the parties agree to adopt the official reference based as used by BLS.
