title
Approval of a Resolution Authorizing Compensatory Time in Lieu of Overtime Pay for Eligible Non-Exempt Police Officers and Firefighters.
request
ADMINISTRATIVE COMMENTS:
The City currently allows eligible non-exempt employees to earn compensatory time in lieu of cash overtime. Police officers and firefighters have historically been excluded from the City’s compensatory time program. As part of a review of the City’s overtime practices and in preparation for the October 1, 2026, Workday ERP implementation, Administrative Directive 2.7.5 is being updated to standardize compensatory time provisions. The proposed resolution authorizes eligible non-exempt police officers and firefighters to participate in the City’s compensatory time program, subject to the same 240-hour maximum accrual applicable to other eligible employees and in accordance with federal and state law.
RECOMMENDATION:
That City Council approve the resolution as set forth in the caption above.
