Executive Summary:

During the June 4, 2018 City Council meeting the Intergovernmental Agreement between the City of Flagstaff and Coconino County for the Flagstaff Metropolitan Planning Organization was approved.  The Intergovernmental Agreement provides for an Executive Director, who is hired by the Executive Board, which sets the compensation and conducts an annual review of the Executive Director.  The Agreement further states the FMPO Board may request the Executive Director be hired as a City of Flagstaff employee for FMPO purposes, enter into a contract with the Executive Director, or employ the Executive Director as an employee of the FMPO, selecting the method that best meets the needs of the FMPO.  The FMPO Board is currently recruiting for an Executive Director and is planning to hire an Executive Director through a contract with the City of Flagstaff.  If an Executive Director is hired through a contract, this is considered an appointment by the FMPO Board and the Employee Handbook of Regulations needs to be updated in order to include the Executive Director as an appointed position.

Financial Impact:

None.

Policy Impact:

The other policy that references appointed employees is the Employee Advisory Committee policy, so the proposed language has been updated to ensure it matches the recommended changes to the Employment Categories policy.

Connection to Council Goal, Regional Plan and/or Team Flagstaff Strategic Plan:

None.

Has There Been Previous Council Decision on This:

No.

Options and Alternatives:

The City Council may choose to amend this ordinance prior to adoption.
