Sunset council adopts overtime policy resolution and approves several vouchers
Summary
Council approved Resolution 2024-28 updating overtime policy, and authorized payments for a public-works truck outfitting, an Alpine Excavating invoice for a waterline project, and annual Weber Basin water charges; questions were raised about project completions and staged payments.
At its Dec. 17 meeting the Sunset City Council approved Resolution 2024-28, which clarifies overtime calculations and pay-period timing. Council discussion centered on quarter definitions and whether late-quarter work should roll into the following pay period; department heads present said they were comfortable with the policy language. The resolution was approved via roll call and the council chair announced it passed.
The council also approved several vouchers. The council authorized $37,341.10 to outfit a Public Works truck with a bed, plow and sander. Members then considered a $52,926.78 payment to Alpine Excavating for work on a Central Park / 1800 North waterline project; councilors noted this was one of multiple progress payments and one member expressed concern about cleanup and asked to defer partial payment until deficiencies are addressed. The council approved the payment after discussion. Finally, the council approved a $400,070 payment to Weber Basin for annual water charges; there was a brief recorded dissent on that item.
Where vote details were recorded in the transcript, members identified on the overtime-roll call answered in the affirmative; the chair declared the resolution passed. The council directed staff to follow up on project completion details and to ensure cleanup issues are resolved before final contract closeout.
