Directing the City 620 Administrator to Include this Action in the Mid Year Budget Adjustments for Ratification John Inch Morgan 34Chief Del Craig reminded the Council that at the beginning of this

he is in 100 agreement of the policy of allowing 57 18 leave to be donated to officers on disability however he believes the cost of leave time should be shifted to the department from where the leave was donated 39 Chief Craig explained that the Police Department still has to pay the officer on leave 59 18 no matter which department donates the leave 17Council Member Catlin stated that the department who donates leave time should 00 19 reduce its own budget for that leave time 41 Chairman Rechtenbach asked for clarification on donated leave 00 19 City Administrator John Inch Morgan confirmed that donated leave is debited from an hourly accrual account 01Chief of Finance Scott Harrington stated that the policy for handling donated leave is a 19 whole separate issue He explained that donated leave is debited from the Hour Bank but when it is used by the employee on leave those actual funds are deducted from the departmental salary budget since his salary is being paid 04 19 L 6 Council Member Pratt noted that leave time is tracked on an hourly basis and not on a dollar amount 21 Additional discussion was held regarding which department should bear the cost of 02 19 donated leave Taylorsville City Council Minutes January 19 201 I Page 10 29Mr Harrington said that he is not certain who donated the leave for the referenced 03 19 officer without checking actual records but believes donations came from within the Police Department 00Chief Craig noted that Administration has previously requested that the Council 04 19 establish a reserve fund to cover leave amounts but there is presently no such account and it is built into the salary and wages line item in each department Mr Harrington confirmed that there is no money set aside to cover leave and the leave accruals referenced are hourly allocations and not financial allocations 36 1t was clazified that two different units dollars and hours are being tracked dollar 04 19 paid out are tracked through the paid s employee department and hours are tracked through the payroll system 27Council Member Pratt asked for clarification on tracking donated leave Mr 05 19 Harrington said that donated leave is tracked on an hourly basis but not by a dollar amount Mr Pratt pointed out that if Mr sCatlin suggestion is implemented every time leave is donated approval for such would have to come to the Council Mr Harrington noted that employee salaries are budgeted on the basis of 2080 hours being paid annually He reiterated that the issue accruals is a separate issue for a later discussion of hour donations 18 Mr Morgan confirmed that the donation of hours is tracked He gave additional 07 19 clarification that there is no extra money allocated for leave time but rather the budget is based on a 2080 hour annual amount per employee He explained that employees can carry a 320 hour leave accrual but if they have more than that amount at year end the excess is lost Mr Morgan stated that the only payout cost obligation to the City is if an employee leaves or retires He noted that the City previously had an Employee Reserve Fund in the budget and said having such a fund would prevent the need to patch budgets or the depletion of departmental budgets 34Council Member Pratt asked for clarification on whether allocations for the three 10 19 officers on leave were originally budgeted for the entire year Mr Harrington stated that the three employees in question actually worked nearly 90of the year He explained that the new officer came on in August and that is why nearly a full s yeaz allocation is being requested 59Council Member Catlin said that the Employee Reserve Fund is not justified He 11 19 suggested that further consideration regarding such a fund beheld during budget discussions 27Chairman Rechtenbach stated that the concept of donating leave time is foreign to him 12 19 He asked for further clarification and Mr Harrington provided such Taylorsville City Council Minutes January 2011 19 Page I I 43 Council Member Pratt inquired whether the latest financial statement available is from 13 19 November and Mr Harrington confirmed that to be the case Mr Pratt said that in November the Police Department had utilized almost 41 of its budget Mr Harrington explained that the payroll schedule does not run consistent with the year to financials because there are 26 pay date periods in the year instead of 24 03 Council Member Pratt noted that the City Council held discussion when the additional 15 19 officer was authorized and they agreed and understood that an additional allocation would be needed if employees came back He stated that he believes the request is fair 26Mr Hamngton clarified that the Police s 15 19 Department surplus car is being used for the additional employee Chairman Rechtenbach said that his only question is why this issue is being addressed now instead of at mid year 08Council Member Catlin said that public entities understand that vacation 16 19 sickleave is an earned benefit and does not accrue until after the pay period worked He stated that he still believes the money for donated leave should go from one department to another 34Mr Morgan agreed to schedule further discussion of donated leave during budget 16 19 sessions 41 Further discussion was held on the tracking of leave used Mr Harrington estimated 16 19 000 on the City books as accrued payables for leave He that there is approximately 587 reiterated that employees can only hold 320 hours at year end He explained that a dollar amount was assigned to leave balances

Year 18 19 Mid Budget is tentatively scheduled for presentation on February 16 2011 He noted that the issue was brought forward now merely to put it on the table He indicated that most resolutions for
