Board authorizes limited part-time work for Dakota Hatton while on military orders
Summary
The Board agreed to allow Dakota Hatton to work part time, sparingly, while on military orders, subject to the police chief’s direction and adjustments for pension and insurance; the Board approved the motion by voice vote and asked staff to note the decision in the meeting minutes.
The Board of Works authorized Dakota Hatton to work part time, on a limited basis, while he remains on military orders.
Board members discussed Hatton’s military leave status (noted in the record as running through the end of December). Speakers clarified that Hatton would be on military orders but had some free time to assist locally; staff noted pension payments and leave accrual would need adjustment for any hours worked and that insurance coverage (including TRICARE) does not substitute for municipal coverage. Board members suggested obtaining a letter or command confirmation from Hatton’s military command as a file item.
Councilman Dahl moved to allow Hatton to work part time, sparingly, under the orders of the police chief; a councilwoman seconded the motion. The Board approved the motion by voice vote; the Chair asked that the decision be recorded in the minutes.
The transcript documents the decision and the Board’s discussion of administrative details; it does not provide a specific part-time schedule, pension-adjustment formula, or an insurance authorization letter in the record. Administrative follow-up was directed to place documentation in the minutes.
