Information
TITLE:
Consideration and Approval of Contract Amendment: Approval of a contract amendment for the City Attorney effective March 5, 2024.
STAFF RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve City Attorney Contract Amendment adding one week (5 days) of vacation leave per year for a total of 28 days.
Executive Summary:
City Council approved a contract for the City Attorney effective July 5, 2022, for a term of five (5) years, expiring on July 4, 2027. In May/June of 2023, the Human Resources Director facilitated the City Council’s annual performance evaluation of the City Attorney. As a result of the evaluation in which the City Attorney received a high rating of "Consistently Exceeds Expectations", Council agreed to add one week of vacation to the terms initially agreed upon in addition to the standard merit increase associated with his rating.
Unfortunately, the HR Director went on leave before he was able to take the contract amendment before Council for formal approval and, therefore, we are bringing it forward now. If approved, the change in vacation days will be retroactive to July 9, 2023.
