Administrative Services Director Lasher said it is around 40 employees. <br /> <br />Councilmember Specht asked if it was in the budget to give these non-union employees the floating <br />holiday. <br /> <br />Administrative Services Director Lasher said yes. <br /> <br />Councilmember Riley said if they do not remove the floating holiday now he does not know how <br />they would be able to remove it later. <br /> <br />Mayor Kuzma stated that if they are giving this holiday to the union employees then they should <br />give it to the non-union employees as well. <br /> <br />Councilmember Woestehoff shared that he is in favor of keeping the floating holiday for <br />consistency purposes. <br /> <br />Councilmember Olson stated that while he understands Councilmember Riley’s point, he does not <br />think they need to remove the floating holiday at this time. <br /> <br />There was consensus of the Council to keep the floating holiday for all non-union employees. <br /> <br />Administrative Services Director Lasher shared that when a paid on-call firefighter signs up and <br />works a holiday, it is paid as time and a half. She noted this has been the practice for the paid on- <br />call firefighters; however, it was never written down in the policy. <br /> <br />Councilmember Musgrove said she is in favor of adding this to the personnel policy to solidify <br />things for Staff. She added that this will also help with budgeting. She asked if they came to a <br />consensus on whether the paid on-call firefighters would have a COLA increase. <br /> <br />Administrative Services Director Lasher stated they are getting a rate adjustment; however, she <br />does not believe that they settled on a COLA. <br /> <br />Councilmember Musgrove noted that it is important that the future Council continue to have this <br />discussion. <br /> <br />There was a consensus of the Council to add the official language for pay for on-call firefighters <br />on holidays. <br /> <br />Administrative Services Director Lasher reviewed the changes to the conflict of interest section of <br />the policy. <br /> <br />Councilmember Woestehoff shared that he likes the proposed changes. He asked if appointment <br />Board and Commission Members are included in this. <br /> <br />Administrative Services Director Lasher said she would like to include Board and Commission <br />Members. <br />City Council Work Session / November 26, 2024 <br />Page 4 of 10 <br /> <br />
