Summary

The Council adopted Resolution No. 2400 to repeal and replace sections of the Town Personnel Rules to align with federal/Arizona law, update leave policies, and modernize discipline and appeals processes.

Human Resources Director Tarah Mayerhofer presented a grouped repeal-and-replace of selected Personnel Rules to ensure legal compliance, improve administration, and enhance certain benefits. Updates included FMLA, military leave, earned sick time, holidays, Paid Parental Leave, Emergency Paid Leave, and updates to discipline and appeals procedures.

Mayerhofer told the Council that most revisions clarify existing practices; a subset adds benefits and risk-management improvements (for example, compensatory time cash-out options). The Council approved Resolution No. 2400 by a 5–0 vote.
