89517
. (a) The minimum and maximum salary limits for laborers,
workmen, and mechanics employed on an hourly or per diem basis need
not be uniform throughout the state, but the trustees shall
ascertain, as to each such position, the general prevailing rate of
such wages in the various localities of the state.
In fixing such minimum and maximum salary limits within the
various localities of the state, the trustees shall take into account
the prevailing rates of wages in the localities in which the
employee is to work and other relevant factors, and shall not fix the
minimum salary limits below the general prevailing rate so
ascertained for the various localities.
(b) If the provisions of this section are in conflict with the
provisions of a memorandum of understanding reached pursuant to
Chapter 12 (commencing with Section 3560) of Division 4 of Title 1 of
the Government Code, the memorandum of understanding shall be
controlling without further legislative action, except that if such
provisions of a memorandum of understanding require the expenditure
of funds, the provisions shall not become effective unless approved
by the Legislature in the annual Budget Act.
