Board approves updates to personnel manual to fix pay-scale and wording inconsistencies
Summary
Trustees approved Resolution 24-44 to amend the village personnel policy manual — updating personal-business language, changing 'telephone' to 'phone and text' in attendance rules, and correcting pay scales for several positions so Park 2/3 align with Public Works and Wastewater levels.
The board approved Resolution 24-44 to amend portions of the village personnel policy manual after staff pointed out duplicate language and pay-scale errors. Staff said the changes were to section 7.04 (personal business), section 7.12 (attendance/punctuality—replace 'telephone' with 'phone and text'), and section 16 (job descriptions/pay scales).
Clerk and staff explained that pay scales for Park 2 and Park 3 positions had been misaligned with equivalent Public Works and wastewater positions and needed adjustment. "Those pay scales were off...they all have the same pay scale, but for some reason, those pay scales were off," staff said while describing the correction. The resolution was moved and seconded, and the board adopted the changes in a voice/roll-call vote.
Staff also said a new cover sheet in the packet — an "amend agenda item staff report" — explains the reasons for each change for future reference. Trustees acknowledged the change improves clarity and helps standardize motions and documentation going forward.
