Administrative committee advances student representative ordinance, cellphone policy and insurance endorsement
Summary
The council approved a first reading of an ordinance to allow a student member on the council, adopted a cell phone and mobile device policy with $50/month reimbursement, and approved an NDIRF endorsement to cover public sewer backup and water main breaks.
Member Counts presented the Administrative Committee report and summarized several recommended actions, which the council approved.
The council voted to approve first reading of an ordinance to permit a City Council Student Representative. Counts also moved to adopt a Cell Phone and Mobile Device Policy that provides $50 per month to employees who use personal devices for work; that motion passed. The committee discussed and the council later approved a NDIRF endorsement for public sewer-backup and water-main-break coverage in the amount of $10,000.
On personnel policy, the council considered a vacation leave payout policy for amounts over a 240-hour carryover limit after five continuous years of service; the motion to authorize payout on the employee's anniversary date passed with Councilmembers Fritz, Booth, Counts, Schemmel and Albert voting AYE and Councilmember Frydenlund voting NAY.
