Finance committee reviews administrative updates, ordinances and alley vacation timing
Summary
Committee authorized staff to rewrite longevity pay language and to reword an existing ordinance for clarity; staff said a legal description for a previously discussed alley vacation will be ready for the March 3 council meeting.
The finance committee considered several technical and administrative items and directed staff to proceed with drafting ordinance language and scheduling items for council.
Staff asked the committee to approve rewriting the city's longevity pay ordinance into a new matrix that reflects recent changes to police and fire pay structures; staff said the change is technical and intended to align the ordinance with current pay practice. Committee members agreed and staff will prepare the revised ordinance for council.
Staff also proposed rewording Ordinance 2024‑09 to remove ambiguous language and to ensure State Board of Accounts compliance; staff said the change is technical and will not alter substantive eligibility or payout practice.
Planning staff said a legal description for a previously discussed alley vacation (brought forward by Peak/Peak Engineering) is being prepared by staff and Andrew Stevenson and is expected to appear on the March 3 council meeting agenda once the legal description is complete.
Ending: Staff will draft amended ordinance language for longevity pay and for Ordinance 2024‑09, and the alley vacation legal description will be prepared for council consideration on March 3.
