1 1 July 27, 1981 39 Mr. Schumacher stArted with Section 13 which deals with suspension and rights of appeal. Mr. Schumacher read the revised section. Section 16 - Special Leave which deals with employees attending conferences, etc., this allows approval through the City Administrator's office rather than having to have approval from the Council. These are budgeted items. Section 17, Breavement Leave, concern on definition of immediate family. This section sets forth the immediate family - with three working days off with pay. With members of the family outside the immediate family, three working days off with pay to be deducted from sick leave. Section 18, Maternity Leave, generaly handled under a broad clause but Mrs. Elsenpeter had felt this section should be more specific. Mr. Schumacher read the revised section. These were the only concerns that had'been set forth at the last discussion of this policy. Mayor Gourley had some concerns with Section 7. He felt that this Section deprives the employee of any rights of appeal. Mayor Gourley said this gives the City the right of fire an employee without any review during the first six months of his employment. He felt this probationary employee shaould have a review sometime during that six months period. Mr. Schumacher felt that some of the respobsibility for decisions in this area should be left to the immediate supervisor. Mr. Schumacher felt each department has its own rules for handling employees in this catagory and since this is an Ordinance, it should be handled on a general basis. Mayor Gourley felt that should be a requirement that the department head equire a review at the three months level. Mr. Jaworski said there should be a statement in this Personnel Policy, that Union Contracts take precedence over this Policy. Mr. Schumacher pointed out this is provided in Section 3. Mr. McLean moved to amend this section to require a written three months review on probationary employees wa well as a six month written review. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Motion carried unanimously. Mrs. Elsenpeter moved to adopt Ordinance #83, Personnel Policy and the Clerk is to prepare a summary for Council consideration for publication. Seconded by Mr. Kulaszewicz. Motion carried unanimously. HEARING - CARRIAGE HOUSE STABLES SPECIAL USE PERMIT - 9:15 P.M. Ken Hardwick and Marty Bancroft were present to represent the Stables.
