2. Non -Exempt employees, on their request and at the
City's option, may be permitted to take
compensating time off at the overtime rate of 1 1/2
times the actual overtime worked in lieu of
payment; provided that such employees may not
accumulate more than 40 hours of compensating time
and any compensating time off must be used within
the twelve (12) month period following the date on
which overtime is earned.
3. All exempt employees other than those excluded by
paragraph 1 shall receive compensatory time for
night meetings, emergency call outs, and other
similar periods for which they are required by
their supervisor to work. Compensating time shall
not be earned for short extensions of regular work
hours less than one hour in length, such as staying
late or coming in early. Compensatory time for
such exempt employees shall be earned at the
straight time rate, one hour of compensatory time
earned for each hour work. The measurement of such
time shall be in accordance with the Mayor's
administrative policies. Commencing January 1,
1990, such exempt employees shall be allowed to
accumulate up to a maximum of 40 hours of
compensatory time during any calendar year. The
terms of use shall be as established by the Mayor's
administrative policy. If an employee earns
additional compensatory time after he or she has
accumulated the maximum, then the employee must
either be paid for the additional time or provided
time off during the next pay period.
4. Compensating time shall be taken at the convenience
of the City. All compensating time must be
recorded and then approved by the employee's
supervisor and/or department head.
5. Upon termination, no exempt employees shall be paid
for unused compensatory time unless time has been
earned in excess of the 40 hour maximum. Non-
exempt employees shall be paid for unused
compensating time at 1 1/2 times the overtime
worked. However, every effort should be made to
use compensating time prior to termination.
Section 2. This ordinance, being an administrative
action, is not subject to referendum and shall take effect five
