Council delays decision on $9,500 employee‑handbook update to next meeting
Summary
Council reviewed an HR‑vendor proposal to update the town employee handbook for a fixed fee of $9,500 (optionally $175/hour for consulting) and agreed to table the motion until the next meeting to allow more time for review.
Council discussed a proposal to update the town’s employee handbook and to consider ongoing HR consulting services. Staff said the current handbook is outdated and still references a former town manager position. The vendor quoted a fixed rate of $9,500 to update the handbook, with optional consulting billed at $175 per hour.
Several council members said they supported updating the handbook but requested more time to review the proposal. A motion to approve the handbook update was placed on the table but was explicitly tabled to the next council meeting to allow additional review.
What’s next: staff will return the item at the next meeting with the proposal for action; council requested more time to review the packet materials.
