Farmers Branch council affirms contract change to increase leave sellback from one week to two
Loading...
Summary
The council voted unanimously to approve a contract amendment that increases leave sellback from one week to two weeks and expressed support for the deputy city manager named in the motion.
The Farmers Branch City Council on May 20 approved a contract amendment that increases leave sellback from one week to two weeks and recorded a council expression of support for a senior staff member.
Council returned from executive session and approved a motion describing a single edit to a contract — increasing the allowable leave sellback from one week to two weeks. The motion also stated the council's support for Deputy City Manager Joraya Tureen and recognized her contributions to city leadership.
Discussion vs. decision: the amendment was presented as a discrete contract edit and council approved the change by unanimous vote. The meeting record shows the council's public affirmation; the full contract text and any related personnel-file details were not read into the public record at length.
Why it matters: the change affects employee leave-sellback policy for the affected contract and signals council direction on personnel terms.
What comes next: city staff will implement the contractual edit per the motion and the city manager — as the employee’s direct manager — will manage related personnel administration.
