ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MARCH 13, 2023 5 <br /> <br />I. Motion To Approve Purchase Of 2023 Bobcat Toolcat And Snowblower <br />Attachment <br />J. Motion To Approve Resolution 2023-011 Ordering Preparation Of Feasibility <br />Report – 2024 PMP <br />K. Motion To Approve Resolution 2023-012 Relating To No Mow May For Arden <br />Hills Residents And Businesses <br /> <br />MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Rousseau seconded a <br />motion to approve the Consent Calendar as amended and to authorize <br />execution of all necessary documents contained therein. The motion carried <br />(5-0). <br /> <br />8. PULLED CONSENT ITEMS <br /> <br />A. Motion To Approve Personnel Policy Update Pertaining To Paid Parenting <br />Leave Language <br /> <br />City Administrator Perrault stated the Personnel Committee recently discussed adding Paid <br />Parenting Leave to the City’s Personnel Policy. The draft language would allow for eighty hours <br />of paid leave to be provided to parents upon the birth or adoption of a child assuming they met <br />certain criteria. As part of the research for this draft policy change, City Staff looked at what <br />nearby cities offer to set a baseline. Cities vary from offering no Paid Parental Leave to more than <br />the eighty hours being proposed; for example, White Bear Township offers no paid leave, while <br />Vadnais Heights offers up to 200 hours depending on the type of birth and other circumstances.

When <br />combined with this leave it would offer approximately six to eight weeks of paid leave. Should <br />Council approve this language it will be incorporated into the City’s Personnel Policy. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden asked if this change would apply to union employees. <br /> <br />City Administrator Perrault reported this policy update would apply to both union and non- <br />union employees. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden questioned if this leave was concurrent with FMLA. <br /> <br />City Administrator Perrault stated employees could take this time with FMLA, or after the 12 <br />week period if an employee had PTO saved up. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden inquired if staff received any negative feedback from staff regarding the <br />proposed personnel policy change. <br /> <br />City Administrator Perrault explained he did not receive any negative feedback from staff <br />regarding the proposed policy change. <br /> <br />Councilmember Monson indicated she was disappointed with this policy and she believed the <br />City could do more. She stated she did not support the proposed policy. She believed the City
