SECTION 36: PARITY PROVISION If, during the term of this MOU, the City provides base salary increases to other City/Fire District employees in amounts in excess of that provided to City employees pursuant to this MOU, then said additional base salary increases shall be implemented as to City employees in the payroll period(s) for which said base salary increases were made effective for other City/Fire District employees. Additionally, if during the term of this MOU, the City provides to another City (not District) employee group a furlough amount less than that provided to City employees subject to this MOU, the City employees subject to this MOU shall be collectively offered an equivalent proposal, including furlough amount, which may at the option of the affected bargaining unit, be Resolution No. 11-062 - Page 3 of 6 implemented in the same or equivalent time frame as was applied to another City employee group. SECTION 38: FURLOUGHS Employees will be required to take sixty (60) hours of unpaid furlough during Fiscal Year 2011/12. The number of furlough days will depend on the employee's regular work schedule. Employees will have four options to complete the sixty (60) hour furlough as outlined below, with the final, irrevocable decision to be made in writing by May 19, 2011 . Once the City has received in writing the decision by all employees regarding their preferred method of meeting their furlough obligation, the City will, prior to July 1, 2011, provide a written Furlough Implementation Schedule to the affected departments and to the negotiation team for each affected employee group. Furlough Options: • Vacation Hours — The employee may elect to "give back" sixty (60) 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 sixty (60) hours available, the City will permit the employee to accumulate the additional hours through January 31, 2012. If the employee has not accumulated sufficient vacation hours by January 31, 2012, then the employee must take the balance of the sixty (60) hours as unpaid furlough hours during the period February 2012 through June 30, 2012. B. Probationary employees who complete probation prior to May 31, 2012 and have elected, in advance, to have sixty (60) 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 May 30, 2012, a one-time exception shall be made to allow the deduction of the accrued leave by June 30, 2012 if they so chose. If a probationary employee has not accrued 60 hours as of May 31, 2012, then the employee must take the balance of the sixty (60) hours as unpaid furlough hours by June 30, 2012. Any probationary employee who did not chose to deduct accrued leave shall take the balance of the sixty (60) hours as unpaid furlough hours during the period of February 2012 through June 30, 2012. • Unpaid Furlough Hours — An employee may elect to take sixty (60) unpaid furlough hours during the period of July 1 , 2011 through June 30, 2012. Furlough hours may be scheduled in full ten (10) hour increments or five (5) hour increments for those employees who work ten (10) hour schedules. However, a maximum of thirty (30) hours can be taken in five (5) hour increments. Resolution No. 11-062 - Page 4 of 6 Furlough hours may be scheduled in full eight (8) hour increments or four (4) hour increments for those employees who work eight (8) hour schedules. However, a maximum of twenty-eight (28) hours can be taken in four (4) hour increments. • Furlough Spread Over 26 Pay Periods — As an option to spread the furlough obligation over the full twenty-six (26) pay periods in the 2011/12 fiscal year, employees may elect to "bank" 2.31 furlough hours per pay period. These employees will work their normal eight (80) hour work week (less any regular holiday, vacation, sick or other leave) but will note 2.31 hours of furlough on each time sheet which will result in the employee being paid for 77.69 hours per eighty (80) hour pay period. The 2.31 hours of furlough will accrue for that employee's use. The employee may begin taking their sixty (60) hours of furlough effective July 1, 2011 providing days are pre-approved by their supervisor and in compliance with rules for use of other types of leave. Use of banked furlough hours shall be subject to the same requirements as stated above under "Unpaid Furlough Hours." All furlough hours must be used no later than July 31, 2012. • 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 sixty (60) 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 sixty (60) hours of furlough. SECTION 39: HOLIDAY FACILITY CLOSURE Certain City Facilities shall close for three days during the period of December 26, 2011 through January 2, 2012. In addition to the regular scheduled City holiday of December 26, 2011, 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; however, unpaid leave may only be taken from furlough hours. All other terms and conditions of the MOU dated May 19, 2010 and covering the term July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2012 remain unchanged.
