Deputy City Administrator Nelson stated she would also check on that. She stated we have four sergeants and it's unlikely we will be laying any of them off. Acting Chair Jeffrey expressed concern that if this language stays in about no layoffs, they may lose their rights to go back into Patrol. He asked staff to make certain we are not violating some agreement. He asked if the Sergeants are protected by any bigger body of sergeants to which Ms. Nelson responded no. Motion by Acting Chair Jeffrey, seconded by Councilmember McGlone to recommend City Council adopt Resolution #10-06-XXX approving 2010 Labor Agreement with LELS-Sergeants. Motion carried. Voting Yes: Acting Chair Jeffrey and Councilmember McGlone. Voting No: None. Absent: Councilmember Dehen. 4.03. Consider Resolution Approving working Out of Classification Pay and Interim Title for the Human Resources Technician Human Resources Technician Lasher excused herself from this discussion. Deputy City Administrator Nelson reviewed the staff report as follows: Council accepted the resignation of the Human Resources Manager/Assistant Administrative Services Manager on May 11. Due to budget issues, dealing with replacing this position has been postponed. In the absence of this position, Ms Lasher has assumed many of the duties of Ms. Reed Kone and is working out of her pay classification. Ms. Nelson added that in the past when the City has had a situation like this, we have given out of classification pay and sometimes an interim title change. Staff is recommending that Council approve a 5% pay increase for Ms. Lasher and to give her an interim title change to Human Resources Representative. The increase would be paid from the salary budgeted for Ms. Reed Kone. She suggested that as we move through the budget process, we would determine what we will do with this position. Ms. Nelson pointed out the job descriptions attached — Ms. Lasher's current description as well as one for an Interim Human Resources Representative. Upon inquiry regarding confidential personnel issues, Ms. Nelson asked that Council continue to talk with her (Nelson) and/or City Administrator Ulrich; however, employees have been encouraged to start with Ms. Lasher. Acting Chair Jeffrey and Councilmember McGlone complimented Ms. Lasher's presentation of personnel cases.
