Magna Council adopts personnel policy, aligns holidays with Municipal Services District
Summary
Council approved a foundational personnel policy to allow Magna to hire its own employees and to align holiday observance with the Municipal Services District; the policy was approved 5-0 on Feb. 10.
The Magna City Council unanimously approved a personnel policy on Feb. 10 intended to establish a framework for hiring direct city employees rather than relying on the Municipal Services District (MSD). Nathan Bracken presented the draft as a standard, "bare bones" policy that provides starting leave accruals, defines paid holidays (including Juneteenth), and delegates administrative authority over employees to the City Manager as recommended by the Council.
Council members discussed vacation and sick accrual rates, rollover rules (not specified in the draft), and the need to align holiday observance with MSD so city staff would have coverage when MSD offices were closed. Council Member Mike Jensen moved to adopt the policy with the discussed amendments; the motion passed 5-0.
