PERSONNEL COMMITTEE MEETING

Date: December 2, 2002 Location: Government Center, Hudson
The Personnel Committee meeting was called to order at 8:37 a.m. by Chairman
Daryl Standafer. Members present: Standafer, Dick King, Julie Speer, and Stan
Krueger. Leon Berenschot was absent. Also present: Debra Kathan. Chuck Whiting
arrived at 9:10 a.m.
Moved (Krueger, King) and approved to adopt the agenda as presented. Moved
(King, Speer) and approved to accept the minutes of the November 4 meeting. The next
meeting was scheduled for 8:30 a.m. on December 19 at the Government Center. The
Committee will be mediating with the LAW employee group. Steve Morrison was
appointed as the mediator for the LAW group. The County is scheduled for mediation
with the AFSCME Highway Union on January 15. Steve Boehrer from Eau Claire was
appointed as the mediator for that case.
The Personnel Committee reviewed the course of the bargaining process so far
with labor counsel Steve Weld via a telephone conference. Weld noted that we are in a
"holding pattern" with two requests: the first from the Human Services unionized Social
Workers who earlier this fall asked for a de- certification vote, and second from the Land
and Water Conservation employees who voted to certify as a union, but have had limited
discussion with the County regarding the writing of a contract.
The Committee reviewed the non -union proposal for a 2003 compensation
package. The Committee decided that it was important to forward the information in
resolution form to the County Board for a vote in December.
The particulars for the Employee Appreciation Banquet were reviewed by the
Committee. Members intend on being present for the awards ceremony. The
Committee discussed an item from the Finance Committee minutes regarding a proposal
from the Land and Water Conservation Committee and the Planning, Zoning, and Parks
Committee to increase the Conservationist wages and freeze the Park Director wages.
The Committee noted that such action would have to come to their Committee and then
proceed through a review process using the County's evaluation format.
Standafer adjourned the meeting at 9:45 a.m.
Respectfully submitted,
Julie Speer, Secretary
