The ineligibility of this member has been confirmed by City legal counsel. Staff has been unable to confirm with the committee member that they will voluntarily resign their position on the committee, therefore staff is recommending a public hearing be held to remove this individual from the committee. An application has been received by Ruth Caesar, President of the Stillaguamish Valley Genealogical Society to replace a member on the lodging tax advisory committee that has recently become ineligible to serve. An interview was conducted and the interview panel recommends the appointment of Ruth Caesar to the committee. Her term will expire April 1, 2017. City of Arlington Council Agenda Bill Item: NB #1 Attachment C HISTORY: On November 16, 2015, the Council appointed two members to the lodging tax advisory committee, Vicki Johnson and Eric Stroschein. Subsequent to that appointment, Mr. Stroschein became ineligible to serve on the committee as he is no longer participating in the organization that qualified him as eligible (Stillaguamish Genealogical Society). In addition, the organization to which Mr. Stroschein is currently serving, the Association of Professional Genealogists, does not qualify for funding as they do not have any active events within the City of Arlington. State law and Arlington Municipal Code require that the committee be comprised equally of members who represent businesses require to collect the tax and members who are involved in funded activities (eligible to receive funding). Legal counsel confirmed that “if the organization to which the member belongs is not engaged in local events, the organization presumably is not eligible for lodging tax funding because of the prohibition against the City making gifts of public funds; consequently the member would not be eligible to serve on the committee”. Going forward, we will update our process which will require applicants to provide a letter of recommendation from the organization they are representing to confirm the member is in good standing. ALTERNATIVES Reject staff recommendation. RECOMMENDED MOTION: The first motion will read: “I move to repeal the appointment of Eric Stroschein from the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee”. The second motion will read: “I move to confirm the appointment of Ruth Caesar to the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee”. City of Arlington Council Agenda Bill Item: NB #2 Attachment D COUNCIL MEETING DATE: December 21, 2015 SUBJECT: Cost of Living Adjustment for Non-Represented Employees for 2015 and 2016 ATTACHMENTS: Proposed Cost of Living Adjustment DEPARTMENT OF ORIGIN Administration / Human Resources EXPENDITURES REQUESTED: $23,649.27 BUDGET CATEGORY: N/A LEGAL REVIEW: DESCRIPTION: In conjunction with the budget process and the recent adoption of two collective bargaining agreements, Administration and Human Resources are proposing a cost of living adjustment (COLA) for the City’s non-represented employees not under contract. Consistent with the recent settlements with the IAFF Local No. 3728 and the Arlington Police Officer’s Association, we are recommending a COLA of 3.5% retroactive to July 1, 2015 and COLA of 1.6% beginning January 1, 2016. Because the COLA for 2015 is for a half year, the actual COLA is 1.75% over the whole year. The cost of the COLAs were assumed in the development of the 2015 and 2016 budgets. HISTORY: The last cost of living adjustment (COLA) for non-represented employees was in January 1, 2009. ALTERNATIVES RECOMMENDED MOTION: I move to approve the proposed Cost of Living Adjustment for Non-Represented Employees for 2015 and 2016.
