AGENDA REPORT�"�""
TO: Honorable City Council
FROM: Deborah S. Traffenstedt, Administrative Services Director /City Clerk '-D,55,7—
DATE: January 25, 2006 (CC Meeting of 2/1/06)
SUBJECT: Consider Approval of Overtime Compensation for Non - Competitive
Service Staff Working Special Election of February 28, 2006
BACKGROUND
The City's contract election consultant has recommended that approximately 25 persons
be available to assist with the designated counting center at City Hall for the February 28,
2006 Special Election. A request for volunteers was circulated to all management and
department head staff (designated in the City's Salary Plan as non - competitive service), so
as to avoid any out -of -class assignment issue. Approximately 20 non - competitive service
employees have volunteered to assist. In addition, all Administrative Service Department
employees in the City Clerk and Information Systems Divisions have been deputized and
assigned election night responsibilities. All competitive service employees that work
overtime on Election Day will receive overtime pay in accordance with the requirements of
law and the City's Personnel Rules. Non - competitive service staff are not eligible for
overtime pay as exempt employees.
DISCUSSION
Due to the fact that the February 28 Special Election is a developer requested and funded
election, and the City cannot accomplish its election evening responsibilities without the
assistance of our non - competitive service employees, staff is requesting the Council
approve non - competitive service employee election day compensation as follows:
Either straight -time pay or one hour of Annual Leave or Vacation Leave
would be accrued for each hour of overtime worked on Election Day. The
intent would be to allow each employee to select either cash or leave
accrual. The cost is intended to be billed to the North Park developer
funded election account.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Approve non - competitive service staff election day compensation as described in the
agenda report.
