AGENDA ITEMS 1. PARKS & RECREATION – AMENDMENT TO GRILL ROOM STAFFING Previously the Board of Commissioners had adopted MR #17036 that created Grill Room operations staffing at White Lake and Lyon Oaks County Parks. However , there was an omission in MR #17036 that did not reflect the creation of two positions and additional hours for four positions, which is included in the budget. This resolution approves the creation of one (1) Seas onal Program Specialist each at White Lake and Lyon Oaks County Parks. In addition, the resolution adds 500 hours to the Second Cook and Parks Helper positions at each of the two County Parks. Spisz moved to report to recommend approval of the attached suggested resolution. Supported by Zack. Motion carried unanimously on a roll call vote. 2. HUMAN RESOURCES DEPARTMENT – AMENDMENT OF SECTION 34 OF THE DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLAN CONCERNING REDETERMINED AMOUNTS FOR 2017 The Provisions in Section 34 o f the Defined Benefit Plan allows for certain Post Retirement Benefit increases through the “redetermined amount.” Every year in May Human Resources Committee staff reviews the retiree pensions and performs a calculation that takes into account the timefra me for which the employee retired and the current Consumer Price Index (CPI). Typically, the majority of retirees receive a 1 1/2 percent increase. This year it was determined that there is a group of 33 retirees (retired in the time period of January 1, 2012 through May 1, 2012) that would receive a decrease in their benefits . To make a provision for these retirees’ benefits to remain the same for FY 2017, t he Human Resources Department is requesting approval of a resolution to modify Section 34 of the D efined Benefit Plan by adding the following language: “34.7 – 2017 Suspension of Application of Redetermination Amount” Effective May 1, 2017, the first sentence of the last full paragraph of Section 34 shall be amended to read as follows: The redeterm ined amount calculated for 2017 shall not be less than the redetermined amount calculated for 2016. This amendment shall be void and shall have no further force and effect as of April 30, 2018.” Middleton moved approval of the attached suggested resolut ion. Supported by Bowman. Motion carried unanimously on a roll call vote. 3.
