plus compensation at time and one-half for the hours actually worked. This payment at
time and one-half abrogates the employee's right to that holiday.

Maintenance employees in the bargaining unit required as part of the regular work
assignment to work on Christmas Day, New Years Day, Independence Day or
Thanksgiving Day, are allowed to observe the holiday on another day. Additionally, these

responsible for the payment of medical, dental and optical premiums to keep the coverage
in force during the leave of absence.

between the disability payments received under Workers Compensation Act and the
employee's full salary. Such payments by the City should be made without any deduction
from accrued sick leave benefits. The City's obligation for such payments shall commence
on the first (1st) day of such disability absence. In the event the employee's disability
absence should exceed three months, an employee shall be allowed to supplement the
Workers Compensation benefit received under State law with available accrued sick leave,
accrued vacation leave or accrued compensatory time. The total number of leave hours,

"pass" in any one or more of such classes, the amount of expenses subject to City's
reimbursement shall be reduced and/or as appropriate, pro-rated to reflect no
reimbursement being made for expenses related to classes where the minimal
grade was not received).
C. Eligibility for reimbursement for said expenses shall be confined to either: 1)those

work schedule. Employees will have three options to complete the forty (40) hour
furlough as outlined below, with the final, irrevocable decision to be made in writing by
July 29, 2010. Once the City has received in writing the decision by all employees
regarding their preferred method of meeting their furlough obligation, the City will, within
sixty (60) calendar days, provide a written Furlough Implementation Plan to be shared
with all employee groups.
Furlough Options:
• Vacation Hours — The employee may elect to "give back" forty (40) hours from
their accrued vacation leave bank to the City.
A. If an employee opts to give back vacation leave hours but does not
have all forty (40) hours available, the City will permit the employee to
accumulate the additional hours through January 31, 2011. If the
employee has not accumulated sufficient vacation hours by January
31, 2011, then the employee must take the balance of the forty (40)
hours as unpaid furlough hours during the period February 2011
through June 30, 2011.
B. Probationary employees who complete probation prior to 5/30/11 and
have elected, in advance, to have forty (40) hours deducted from their
accrued vacation balance, shall have the deduction made at the
conclusion of probation. If the employee does not complete probation
prior to 5/30/11, a one-time exception shall be made to allow the
deduction of the accrued leave by 6/30/11 if they so chose. If a
probationary employee has not accrued 40 hours as of 5/30/11, then
the employee must take the balance of the forty (40) hours as unpaid
furlough hours by June 30, 2011. Any probationary employee who did
not chose to deduct accrued leave shall take the balance of the forty
(40) hours as unpaid furlough hours during the period February 2011
through June 30, 2011.
Resolution No. 10-059— Page 13 of 15
• Unpaid Furlough Hours —An employee may elect to take forty (40) unpaid
furlough hours during the period October 1, 2010 through June 30, 2011.
Holiday Closure—An employee may elect to take unpaid furlough hours during the three
(3) day holiday closure described in Section 39 and choose either of the preceding options
to total forty (40) hours of furlough. If an employee furloughs during the holiday closure
period but is subsequently called in to work, that day shall not be counted toward the
employee's required forty (40) hours of furlough.
SECTION 39: Holiday Facility Closure
Certain City Facilities shall close for three days during the period 12/24/10 through 1/2/11.
City Hall and the City Yard shall close December 27, 28 and 29. Closure dates for the
Libraries, the Cultural Center and other Community Services facilities shall be determined
by the City in order to balance the impact on public services with the need for cost savings.
During this closure employees may take paid leave from holiday, management leave,
compensatory time or vacation accruals.
SECTION 40: LIMITED REOPENER
The parties agree to reopen negotiations in February, 2011. The purpose of this reopener
will be to discuss, if necessary, the implementation of furlough days and holiday closure in
FY 2011/12, and an increase in the employee payment of the CalPERS employee
contribution for new hires. The reopener is non-binding if both side are unable to reach
agreement, and if that should occur, both sides acknowledge that layoffs may be
implemented in the General, Supervisory/Professional and Mid-Management Employee
Group regardless of whether layoffs occur in any other employee bargaining group.
