She said another <br />option would be to work something out with KVEC staff. <br />The Board asked that she table the request until the next <br />HR Study Session since Commissioner O’Brien was not <br />present, and suggested that he speak with KVEC Director <br />Webb before bringing it back to the Board. <br /> Public Works – Leave Accrual Adjustment – PW Director <br />Cook presented a request to return an employee’s vacation <br />accrual to 17 hours per month; the employee took a <br />supervisory position and lost accrual by going from the <br />Road Union to non-Union. The Board asked Director Cook <br />to bring back a list of concerns from the team with <br />justification for the adjustment. <br /> Public Works – Planning Manager – Director Cook discussed <br />his ideas on hiring a Planning Manager that would oversee <br />transportation, water resources, and the Flood Control <br />Zone District.
