I would say that looks ~10% lower than private sector base pay, and where I work the vacation/benefits/pension are of comparable value to what the city gets. That's only for the very few jobs I know what people at my work get paid. Seems about right for the increased job security compared to private sector.
As an aside, I was surprised to see "Gardener Zoo" and various types of zookeepers on the list. I thought the zoo was an independent society, I didn't know it was part of the city.
