Modena council adds limited PTO to employee handbook
Summary
The Borough of Modena council approved a change to its employee handbook adding 4 hours of PTO per year for part-time employees who work at least 20 hours weekly after one year of employment; the motion passed with VP Sherman opposing the PTO addition.
The Borough of Modena council approved an amendment to its employee handbook on Aug. 10, 2026, adding a modest paid time off benefit for qualifying part-time employees. The amendment grants 4 hours of PTO per year to employees who work at least 20 hours per week and have completed one year of employment with the borough.
Council member Taylor moved to approve the handbook with the PTO addition; Council member Gallagher seconded the motion. The motion passed, with Vice President Sherman recorded as the sole nay vote. The agenda for the meeting had been approved after removing a previously listed resolution related to hiring part-time public works, with council noting that hiring could proceed by council vote at a public meeting if details were documented. The minutes do not explain why the formal resolution was removed but show subsequent hiring votes taken by motion during the same meeting.
