ed:
R E S 0 L U T I 0 N 33-84
BE IT RESOLVED BY TIlE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF TIlE TOWN OF ESTES
PARK,COLORADO,that the following wage,salary and rule changes
be placed into effect on January 1,l9BS
Wage and salary increases by departments —
Finance and Clerical 4.27%
Police 8.08%
Public Works and Water 4.27%
Light and Power 7.13%
Department Supervisors 6.10%
Administration 8.00%
In addition to the above,merit awards are authorized for
the above departments not to exceed 1.9%of the 1984 base payroll
for each respective department.Employees will be evaluated each
year on his/her employment anniversary date and the resulting
merit increase,if warranted,will take effect the first day of
the pay period following the employee’s anniversary date.
The compensation schedules and classification grades dated
January 1,1985 as prepared by Arthur Young Company,shall take
effect January 1,1985.All wage and salary increases will
amount to 8%of the total 1984 annual payroll.
The Sick Leave Rule shall be amended effective January 1,
1965 as follows:
Sick Leave
All Town employees will earn sick leave at the rate of
eight hours per month (prorated for part—time and temporary
personnel)
Sick leave may not be used when caring for the illness
of others.In such instances,annual leave or leave without
pay must be taken.
When an employee takes more than two continuous days of
sick leave,that employee’s supervisor may require submittal
of a doctor’s certificate.
An employee’s accumulation of sick leave benefits shall
not exceed 480 hours,or 60 work days.Enployees whose
accumulation during a year results in a total accumulation
exceeding 480 hours,will be allowed to convert that addi
tional sick leave to annual leave on a 2—for—l basis.For
example,if an employee has 480 hours of unused sick leave
on his/her anniversary date,and obtains an additional 96
hours during the next year without using any sick leave,the
employee will be allowed to convert that sick leave to
annual leave on a 2—for—l basis.That is,the employee will
receive an additional 48 hours of annual leave in exchange
for the 96 hours of unused sick leave,and the total accumu
lation of sick leave benefits will remain at 480.Any
amount of unused sick leave in excess of 480 hours will be
converted to annual leave on a 2—for—i basis.
For those employees who currently have more than 480
hours of sick leave,this excess over 480 hours will be
placed in a “bank”for his/her use.The employee will not
lose those hours;however,they will not at this time be
eligible for conversion to annual leave.For example,if an
employee has 600 hours of unused sick leave,120 of those
hours will be put into a bank for that employee’s use.Any
additional hours which the employee accumulates over 480 cun
be converted to annual leave on the anniversary date.Under
no circumstances can more than 96 hours of unused sick leave
be converted to annual leave during a given year.Excess
sick leave in the employee’s bank shall be used prior to the
use of the first 480 hours,
