PERSONNEL COMMITTEE MEETING
Date: October 18, 2000 Location: Government Center, Hudson
The Personnel Committee meeting was called to order at 8:35 a.m. by Chairman Gerald
Peterson. Members present: Peterson, Julie Speer, Ralph Swenson, Art Jacobson, and Mary
Louise Olson. Also present: Debra Kathan, Bob Heise, and Chuck Whiting.
Moved (Jacobson, Speer) and approved to adopt the agenda as presented. The next
meeting was scheduled for November 20 at 9 a.m. The Employee Appreciation Banquet
honoring milestone employees was tentatively scheduled for November 16. Peterson suggested
that we look at the Gethsemane Lutheran Church fellowship hall as a site for the banquet. It was
centrally located for the employees. Moved (Swenson, Speer) and approved to accept the
minutes of the September 14 meeting.
The Committee received the report of the Evaluation Team regarding reclassification
requests. Moved(Speer, Olson) and approved to accept the Evaluation Team report as noted on
the attachments.
Discussion regarding a three-to-five year plan and a ten-year plan for employee growth in
County departments. It was noted that wage schedules had been updated for all employee
settlements and retro-checks had been processed. The County will file for arbitration with the
Human Services—Professional Employees Union since impasse was reached at the last
negotiations session. Moved(Speer, Swenson) and approved to authorize the actions necessary
to file for arbitration with the HS-PE union.
Discussion regarding a referral from the Finance Committee to review the task of
providing passport services in the Clerk of Courts Office. The matter will be referred back to the
Finance Committee since they are the Supervising Committee for that department and should
determine the level of service for that office. The Personnel Committee encourages the Finance
Committee to continue the passport services within the Government Center as they view this as a
legitimate use of government time. Whiting will discuss the issue with the parties involved.
The Committee reviewed a question regarding using temporary help in the jail operation.
It was noted that regular jailer shifts cannot be filled with temporary help unless all other avenues
for filling the slot have been used—i.e. overtime, filler shift, etc. The use of temporary help is
limited to partial shifts and work overloads. It was noted that a future meeting should discuss
goal-setting for the Committee and its approach to long-term employee management. Moved
(Jacobson, Olson) and approved to adjourn at 12:41 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,
Mary Louise Olson, Secretary
