review. After discussing with our attorneys,a proposed language modification was suggested as <br /> follows: "Employees in the Management Group are eligible for an additional employer matching <br /> contribution up to 2.5%of the manger's annual base salary,conditioned on the individual providing <br /> the Utilities with authorization for the necessary payroll deduction." This policy language change was <br /> agreed upon by the committee,however,needs formal approval by the commission. <br /> Additionally,a house keeping item was discussed. The employer matched contributions have been <br /> funded May 31st since inception. After discussion with staff, it was proposed to change this to a <br /> calendar year contribution that could be made with each payroll funding,just like PERA is handled <br /> currently.This eliminates additional tracking and year-end audit accruals,as well as the challenge of <br /> funding terminated employees still eligible for the pro-rated match when they close their account <br /> before the contribution is made. Consensus was to make a policy change to eliminate the May 31st <br /> funding language,effective as soon as administratively feasible,and needs formal approval by the <br /> commission. <br /> One final housekeeping item,the annual personal leave day that is awarded to staff is also on a similar <br /> timeline and is currently awarded June 1,expiring the following May 31 if not used. As this would be <br /> the only mid-year item remaining, staff proposed having this awarded January 1 with a December 31 <br /> expiration if not used,effective January 1,2019. <br /> Page 2 of 2 <br /> 100 <br />
