CITY COUNCIL <br />AGENDA ITEM lE <br />STAFF ORIGINATOR: Jeff Karlson <br />MEETING DATE: September 14, 2015 <br />TOPIC: Revision to Section 6.2 of the Personnel Policy <br />VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5 <br />INTRODUCTION <br />The Council is being asked to approve a revision of Section 6.2 of the City of Lino Lakes <br />Personnel Policy. <br />BACKGROUND <br />Currently, the Personnel Policy allows employees to use accrued vacation at the end of their <br />employment with the City. Employees who leave the City in good standing are generally <br />compensated for their vacation hours as a lump sum payment towards a post -employment <br />Health Care Savings Account. Allowing employees to use vacation after their last day of <br />employment extends their leave accruals since they are still on the City's payroll. The City is <br />also contributing additional dollars toward FICA and PERA. <br />The revised language in Section 6.2 reads as follows: "Employees may elect to use up to four <br />weeks of accrued vacation or PTO at the end of their employment with the City, but are not <br />eligible for leave accruals or paid benefits during this period." <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Staff recommends approval of revised Section 6.2 of the Personnel Policy. <br />
