AGENDA ITEM 3B <br />STAFF ORIGNINATOR: Gordon Heitke, City Administrator <br />MEETING DATE: December 12, 2005 <br />TOPIC: Resolution No. 05 -199 Approving Leave Donation Program <br />VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5 <br />BACKGROUND <br />The City of Lino Lakes recognizes that a catastrophic illness or injury of an employee or <br />immediate family member may deplete an employee's available paid leave. The City Council <br />determined that it was in the best interest of the City and its employees to prepare a policy and <br />program to allow for the donation of accrued leave by employees to a fellow employee who is <br />experiencing a catastrophic illness or injury and has depleted all available paid leave. This <br />donation of leave minimizes or alleviates additional challenges to the employee attributable to <br />financial hardship from the loss of wages. <br />The Council reviewed a draft policy and program for the donation of accrued leave <br />at its November 22, 2005 work session. The program sets forth eligibility requirements, <br />program conditions, and administrative procedures. Staff was directed to place the proposed <br />policy on the December 12, 2005 Council agenda for action. <br />OPTIONS <br />1. Approve Resolution No. 05 -199 Approving a Leave Donation Program for the City of <br />Lino Lakes. <br />2. Return to staff with direction. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Option 1 <br />ATTACHMENTS <br />1. Resolution No. 05 -199. <br />2. Leave Donation Program <br />ai <br />
