Bandera council votes to end comp time accrual for exempt employees
Summary
After noting contradictory language in the personnel manual, the council voted to discontinue comp time accrual for exempt employees; the motion passed 4–1 with one member recorded as opposed.
Deanna raised inconsistencies between the personnel manual and an earlier resolution governing comp time for exempt and nonexempt employees, and moved to discontinue comp-time accrual for exempt employees. Council reviewed the manual's language and discussed the history: exempt status had been applied when employees moved from hourly to salaried classifications and a comp-time policy was adopted to compensate the change.
Councilors discussed legal and practical differences between exempt and nonexempt status and special considerations for law-enforcement positions. After debate, the council voted to remove comp-time accrual for exempt staff; the roll-call in the meeting noted four votes in favor and one (Jeff) opposed.
