Menands Village board approves $10,000 transfer to boost pay for employee identified as Mary Jane
Summary
The Menands Village board approved transfers of $5,000 from the water fund contingency and $5,000 from the sewer contingency into labor lines to compensate an employee identified as Mary Jane for additional duties. The motion passed by voice vote; no roll call or tally was recorded in the transcript.
The Menands Village board approved transfers of $5,000 from the water fund contingency and $5,000 from the sewer contingency to labor lines to increase pay for an employee identified only as Mary Jane.
The transfers were proposed during the meeting when a board member moved “to transfer $5,000 from contingency of the water fund to $5,000 in the labor line and $5,000 in the sewer contingency to $5,000 to the labor line and sewer, to pay, in order to benefit the salary of Mary Jane for the duties.” Another board member voiced support. The motion passed on a voice vote: "All those in favor? Aye." The transcript does not record a roll-call vote or a numerical tally.
The board did not specify the employee's position, effective date of the pay change, or whether the transfers are a one-time adjustment or recurring. The motion text ties the transfers directly to covering "additional duties" assigned to the employee; no further details about the duties or a written amendment were provided in the recorded discussion.
After the budget transfer motion, a board member moved to adjourn; that motion also passed by voice vote.
