Winlock council approves clerk to serve as treasurer with pay increase and overtime option
Summary
Maureen Crabtree agreed to serve as combined Clerk/Treasurer; council approved 'Treasurer Option 2' including a 10% out-of-class wage increase and overtime accrual after legal review that the CBA did not automatically require the increase.
City Clerk Maureen Crabtree told the council she would serve in the combined Clerk/Treasurer role and requested that hours worked over 40 per week be paid as overtime rather than accrued as compensatory time. The City Attorney advised that the Collective Bargaining Agreement does not include the Treasurer position and therefore does not automatically trigger a 10% out-of-class wage increase, though the council may choose to authorize an adjustment at its discretion.
After discussion of workload and audit requirements, Councilman Jeramy Allman moved to approve Treasurer Option 2 — described in the meeting as a 10% out-of-class wage increase plus overtime accrual — which the council approved unanimously. Council also acknowledged a full audit of the payroll system would be required before changing payroll vendors; the council tabled ADP payroll service consideration pending further information.
