Memorandum, Personnel Actions <br /> Page Two <br /> April 27, 2001 <br /> In addition to the interim pay, I would recommend that Mr. Moore be allowed to use the <br /> Public Works pick up truck that was not sold in 2000 for all trips in and throughout <br /> Arden Hills for Parks and Recreation purposes. This vehicle is currently only being used <br /> for short trips to pick up supplies for Public Works, or in the case of emergency, or if one <br /> of our other vehicles is not in service. This should reduce the wear and tear on Mr. <br /> Moore's personal vehicle, and eliminate the mileage claim from him for all of the internal <br /> trips within the City for Parks & Recreation and Public Works matters. <br /> 3. Labor Management Committee(LMC) Recommendation,Time Off Requests <br /> The Labor Management Committee (LMC) met on April 11, 2001, and brought forward a <br /> recommendation to institute a new policy regarding the number of persons permitted off <br /> at one time. Prior to this recommendation, it was the policy and practice of the former <br /> Public Works Director not to allow more than two (2)people off at any given time. This <br /> did not allow those bargaining unit employees of less seniority an opportunity to have <br /> access to time off until all senior employees had scheduled their time off. Also,there <br /> were emergencies or other situations that necessitated the ability to have time off when <br /> two were already scheduled to be off. <br /> The recommendation provides for a trial policy to modify each bargaining unit employee <br /> to be the third person off for up to three (3)times per year,between April 12, 2001 and <br /> December 1, 2001. The same policies regarding the number of days notice prior to the <br /> time being taken off will apply, (see March 14, 2001 memorandum regarding the policy <br /> change for the number of days notification),with the approval of time off requests given <br /> by the Public Works Foreman and approval of the request of the Public Works Foreman <br /> to be the Public Works Director or responsible position. This policy will be evaluated <br /> and brought up for discussion at LMC meetings on a monthly basis for review and <br /> examination,with a final recommendation being made after December 1, 2001. <br /> This does not add any additional time off for any employees, nor change the amount of <br /> accumulated time off, but only affects the use of their time off. <br /> cc: Terry Post <br /> Sandy Berres <br /> Tom Moore <br />
