Motion by Councilmember Peterson and seconded by Councilmember Cich to adopt Resolution ~)0-01-2 designating the 1990 Council Organization. Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Reimann, Councilmembers DeLuca, Pearson, Cich and Peterson. Voting No: None. Council recessed at 7:30 p.m. Mayor Reimann called the meeting back to order at 7:45 p.m. Case #2: Administrator Performance Evaluation: This portion of the meeting was closed to the public and Mr. Hartley's performance evaluation ensued from 7:45 p.m. to 9:45 p.m. Mr. Hartley dismissed himself from Council Chambers at 9:45 p.m. in order to allow the City Council the opportunity to discuss a contract proposal for the City Administrator position. At 10:30 p.m., Mr. Hartley and Ms. Frolik were called back into Council Chambers and the meeting was again open to the public. The City Council proceeded to review the contract proposal that had been drafted for the City Administrator position. The proposal consisted of a 2 year contract with a $1500 increase in annual salary each of the two years; employer contribution to deferred comp equal to 5% of annual salary; an increase in health insurance contributions equal to what the AFSCME unit will be receiving; 15 days of paid vacation annually effective January 1 of each year with a maximum accrual of 25 days vacation. The 'Hours of Work' para~aph of the employment agreement would also be mended by eliminating the last two sentences limiting the employee to 8 hours of personal time off per week and requiring maintenance of a log of hours worked. Mr. Harfley stated that he will take whatever is offered but noted that the proposal just reviewed would leave him as the lowest paid City Administrator in a group of comparable cities and that his increase would be considerably less than what other Ramsey employees are receiving. Motion by Councilmember Peterson and seconded by Councilmember Pearson to renew City Administrator David Hartley's employment agreement with the following adjustments: a two year contract for 1990 and 1991; a $1500 increase in annual salary in each of the two years; employer contribution to employee's deferred comp plan equal to 5% of annual salary; health insurance contributions equal to that received by the AFSCME unit; 15 days of paid vacation annually effective January 1 of each year with a maximum accrual of 25 days vacation; and the 'Hours of Work' paragraph amended by eliminating the last two sentences limiting the employee to 8 hours of personal time off per week and requiring maintenance of a log of hours worked. Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Reimann, Councilmembers DeLuca, Pearson, Cich and Peterson. Voting No: None. City Council/January 3, 1990 Page 7 of 9
