JOINT REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL AND REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR
AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
HONORABLE CHAIRWOMAN
AND MEMBERS OF THE REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
FROM: BARBARA LEIBOLD
CITY ATTORNEY /AGENCY COUNSEL
DATE: DECEMBER 13, 2011
RE: AMENDMENT TO CITY CLERK/AGENCY SECRETARY EMPLOYMENT
AGREEMENT
Background
The City Clerk/Agency Secretary employment agreement ( "Employment Agreement ")
provides that the City Council review the City Clerk's performance. The City Council
conducted a performance review of City Clerk Virginia Bloom in closed session at the
City Council meetings on October 25 and November 8, 2011.
Discussion
An amendment to the Employment Agreement is necessary to reflect changes to the
terms of the City Clerk/Agency Secretary's employment. A First Amendment to the
Employment Agreement has been prepared by the City Attorney and is attached for
your consideration.
The amendment provides for an extension of the term of the Clerk Clerk/Agency
Secretary's employment contract from January 31, 2012 to January 31, 2015 and an
annual salary of $80,000.
The amendment also includes one technical clarification. The existing Employment
Agreement used the term "department head" when referring to the City Clerk's
classification level. The City's commonly refers to this level as a "department director."
Consequently, the amendment reflects that these two terms are synonymous for
purposes of the Employment Agreement.
