ExelIlPt/Non-ExelIlPt Status <br /> <br />Ms. Moore-Sykes indicated this item had been placed on the agenda to discuss the status <br />of the exempt/non-exempt classification. She then indicated there had been some discuss <br />of leaving the current employee at his non-exempt status and changing the position in the <br />future to make it an exempt position. <br /> <br />Council Member Capra indicated there was a contract with Mr. Palzer dated 1995 and <br />asked if the City was bound by that contract. <br /> <br />City Attorney Hoeft indicated the document could have been drafted better but said he <br />feels the City would be bound by the agreement and he feels it is an enforceable contract. <br /> <br />city Attorney Hoeft indicated it was his analysis that the director of public works and <br />building inspector are the same individual and until those duties are separated the <br />position should remain non-exempt. <br /> <br />city Attorney Hoeft further explained that the current public works director's job <br />description contains duties that do not allow for exemption. <br /> <br />City Attorney Hoeft indicated that, if the City is interested in establishing an exempt <br />position, the City would need to more clearly define the position of public works and <br />separate out the positions. <br /> <br />Council Member Capra asked if the City is bound by the agreement. <br /> <br />City Attorney Hoeft commented that it is hard to say what the agreement is but it makes <br />the determination that the current employee at that time would be a non-exempt <br />employee. He then said that if the position is split into a public works director and a <br />building inspector then the agreement would not apply. <br /> <br />Council Member Capra indicated her concern lies with the tact that a non-union <br />employee is doing union work and that is something that the union typically does not like <br />and could become an issue in the future. <br /> <br />Page 9 ofl5 <br />
