AGENDA REPORT
TO: The Honorable City Council
FROM: Steven Kueny, City Manager
DATE: March 9, 2006 (CC Meeting of March 15, 2006)
SUBJECT: Consider Approval of Additional Administrative Leave for Director of
Administrative Services and Director of Community Development
DISCUSSION:
The city has historically recognized the extra time, work and additional responsibilities
required of certain management overtime exempt positions due to position vacancies and
other reasons by approving additional administrative leave to partially compensate for such
efforts. Such is the case with the Director of Administrative Services (in her role as City
Clerk) in regards to the recently concluded Special Election. As you know, much work
went into this stand alone election, which the city conducted without the contract
assistance of the County of Ventura. The Director of Administrative Services had to
maintain her regular duties while managing this very time - consuming event. This resulted
in many extra hours over several months. It is recommended that eighty (80) hours of
Administrative Leave be awarded to Deborah S. Traffenstedt, Director of Administrative
Services.
In July 2005, the city's in -house City Engineer position became vacant with only two weeks'
notice. The position was not filled until mid November 2005. During this time, the Director
of Community Development was responsible for overseeing the contract engineering
services related to development projects. It is recommended that forty (40) hours of
Administrative Leave be granted to Barry Hogan, Director of Community Development.
In both cases, the individuals would have the option of cashing out all or a portion of this
additional Administrative Leave instead of taking time off. No additional appropriation of
funds is needed if this option is selected.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Approve additional Administrative Leave for the Director of Administrative Services and
Director of Community Development as described in this report.
