RESOLUTION 18829 TO PLACE THIS POSITION IN SALARY
BAND E2, AND AMENDING RESOLUTION 17468 TO ADD THIS

WHEREAS, the Police Chief has recently promoted two lieutenants to the rank of Police
Captain, filling vacancies created by one recent retirement and the "unfreezing" of a six month
vacant position; and
WHEREAS, the restructuring of the Executive Management of the department (as a
result of the long-term vacancy) has proven beneficial and at the same time, highlighted the
need for a "Number Two" person; and
WHEREAS, creation of the Assistant Chief of Police will recognize the additional higher
level duties and responsibilities currently assigned to the incumbent; and
WHEREAS, in addition to the aforementioned areas of responsibility, a designated
- "second in command" will "act" for the Chief in his absence thereby allowing the Chief to
devote additional time and effort to essential community and regional policing efforts; and
WHEREAS, though these external needs have been met in the past, the recent citizen
survey pointed out the need to enhance police/community outreach efforts beyond current
levels.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED the City Council of the City of Chula Vista does
hereby amend the FY 1997-98 budget to create the position of Assistant Chief of Police.

specified reasons, employees are advised to carefully review the information
that will be provided on the program prior to deciding whether or when to
participate.
Participating employees will pay the participant costs (currently $24 per year).

used within the fiscal year for which it is credited and will not be accumulated
from year to year. Floating holiday time in an employee's last fiscal year of City

at the time of separation frorn City service. Employees who have not used this

14. Auto Allowance
The City Manager has authorization to provide, at his/her discretion, an auto
allowance of up to $285/month for certain executive managers with the
allowance contingent on evidence of adequate auto insurance.
C. All officers ("employees") provided for herein are FLSA-exempt.
Effective April 15, 1986, an FLSA-exempt employee shall not be placed in leave
without pay status for any absence, due to personal reasons not covered by
some form of leave with pay, of less than the employee's regular work day, but
rather shall be charged annual leave time, if available, for the absence and shall
be paid for the portion of the absence not covered by such leave time, so long
- as the employee has, in fact, worked for a portion of the work day. If the
exempt employee is absent from an entire work day, he/she shall be charged
annual leave time for the absence, if available, and shall be placed in leave
without pay status for the portion of the absence not covered by such leave.
Thus, for example, if an exempt employee works three hours of a work day, is
authorized to take five hours of the day off for personal reasons, and has at the
time three hours of annual leave time available, the employee will be charged
his/her three hours of leave time and will be paid, for the remaining two hours
of the absence. As a further example, if an exempt employee is authorized to
take an entire work day off for personal reasons and has, at the time, six hours
of annual leave available, the employee will be charged his/her six hours of
leave time and will be placed in leave without pay status for the remaining two
hours of the absence. If such absences are not authorized by the employee's
supervisor, the employee shall be placed in absence without leave (AWOL)
status, and disciplinary action shall be considered, as appropriate. Every
attempt should be made to minimize absences without leave of less than one
work day for FLSA-exempt employees.
Effective April 15, 1986, an FLSA-exempt employee who is absent due to
sickness or disability for less than a work day and whose sick leave and annual
leave balances are inadequate to cover the absence shall be paid for the portion
of that less-than*a-day absence not covered by such leave time, so long as the
employee has, in fact, worked for a portion of the work day. If the employee
is absent for an entire work day due to sickness or disability, he/she shall be
charged sick leave and/or annual leave time for the absence, if available, and
shah be placed in leave without pay status for the portion of the absence not
covered by such leave time. Thus, for example, if an exempt employee works
two hours of the day and is off for six hours due to sickness and has at the
Resolution 18895
Page 8
time two hours of sick leave and two hours of annual leave time, the employee
will be charged his/her four hours of leave time and will be paid for the
remaining two hours of the absence. As a further example, if an exempt
employee is absent for an entire work day due to sickness, and has, at the
time, two hours of sick leave and four hours of annual leave, the employee will
be charged his/her six hours of leave time and will be placed in leave without
pay status for the remaining two hours of the absence. If such absences are
not authorized by the employee's supervisor, the employee shall be placed in
absence without leave (AWOL) status, and disciplinary action shall be
considered, as appropriate. Every attempt shall be made to minimize absences
without leave of less than one work day for FLSA-exempt employees.
