CityCouncil | 2021-07-06 | 49 | Councilmember Herrera Spencer stated public comment has raised the issue of whether or not the contract is similar to other City staff; her understanding is that the contract is similar; requested clarification for the contract details. The Human Resources Director stated the provisions in the City Attorney's contract allow for employees to cash out vacation, up to two weeks, after being with the City for 15 years; not all employees have the provision; the provision is negotiated; vacation accruals are different based on years of service; the accruals allowed are higher than other City employees however, the amount is nothing higher than seen at other organizations. Councilmember Herrera Spencer inquired whether any other City employees have the same level of vacation cash-out. The Human Resources Director responded other employees have the 80 hours of cash- out option after 15 years of service. Councilmember Herrera Spencer moved approval of the employment agreement. Councilmember Knox White seconded the motion, which carried by the following roll call vote: Councilmembers Daysog: Aye; Herrera Spencer: Ayes; Knox White: Aye; Vella: Aye; and Mayor Ezzy Ashcraft: Aye. Ayes: 5. (21-463) Adoption of Resolution Amending Resolution Nos. 15728 and 15739 Amending the 2021 Regular City Council Meeting Dates. [Continued to 7/20 at 6:59 p.m.] The City Clerk gave a brief presentation. Councilmember Knox White stated moving the dates back would be problematic; expressed support for the September meeting dates being the 8th and the 22nd Mayor Ezzy Aschraft requested clarification on selecting certain religious holidays to re- schedule. The City Attorney stated Council has a wide range of discretion on when to meet; should Council choose to meet, the reasons would not be due to favoring one religion over another. Councilmember Knox White stated no meetings are scheduled for December 25th which is a Christian holiday; Council can make a determination that meetings can be moved based on conflicts for a large portion of the community; expressed support for not moving the Council meeting dates back; stated that he would like the dates to be September 8th and 22nd to ensure no conflict.
