. RESOLUTION 7716 CITY OF MOUNDS VIEW COUNTY OF RAMSEY STATE OF MINNESOTA RESOLUTION REVISING THE INTRODUCTION SECTION AND SECTIONS 1.05 AND 1.37 OF THE CITY OF MOUNDS VIEW PERSONNEL MANUAL WHEREAS, the League of Minnesota Cities has suggested that the City of Mounds View add “disclaiming” language to its Personnel Manual which would assert three points: 1. The City Council retains the right and discretion to modify the Personnel Manual as it may see fit and without any notice, 2. The City Council retains responsibility for any necessary interpretation of any policy or provision therein, and 3. Nothing in the Personnel Manual should be construed to be a contract. WHEREAS, the City Council has been made aware of an inconsistency between Section 1.05 and Section 1.37 or the Personnel Manual regarding probationary employees; and, WHEREAS, the City Council has been made aware of an inconsistency between Section 1.05 of the Personnel Manual and Section 106.03, Subd 1b(9) of the City Code regarding terminations. NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Mounds View City Council approves the following revision to the introductory passage of the Mounds View Personnel Manual, as follows: The City reserves the right, at its discretion, to change or terminate any provision of this handbook or to add new provisions at any time without prior notification. Responsibility for final interpretation of any specific issues as they relate to policies, procedures, and benefits lies with City Council. Suggestions you have for changes in the City's personnel policies are welcome and should be submitted in writing to the City Administrator. If, and whenever, information in this packet conflicts with a union contract, the union contract shall override the packet information. This Personnel Manual itself is not an employment contract, and nothing herein should be construed as such.
