1st Amendment 06/15/2011AMENDMENT TO THE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
DATED DECEMBER 18, 2002 FOR
FORMER COUNTY ATTORNEY, JOHN R. COLLINS
THIS AMENDMENT is made and entered into this �;
day of 2011, between the Board
of County Commissioners of Monroe County, Florida ( "County "), and John R. Collins, ( "Attorney ").
WHEREAS, the parties entered into an Employment Agreement ( "Agreement ") with Attorney,
December 18, 2002; and
WHEREAS, the Agreement contained a provision for an automobile allowance; and
WHEREAS, the Agreement has been interpreted by the County's auditors and the Florida
Retirement System (FRS) to preclude the inclusion in regular compensation, subject to state retirement
calculations, of the automobile allowance; and
WHEREAS, all prior and current Monroe County Administrators and prior Monroe County
Attorneys, the employees of Monroe County normally under contract, have received automobile
allowance as regular compensation, subject to FRS contributions and included in retirement calculations;
and
WHEREAS, both parties to this Agreement contemplated that the compensation package, other
than employee benefits listed in the Agreements, would be subject to County contributions to the FRS and
included in the final average compensation computation for calculating retirement benefits;
WHEREAS, the County has been making the contributions into the FRS for the compensation
heretofore described as salary and automobile allowance; and
WHEREAS, the parties find it in the best interests of both to amend the Agreement to render the
existing Agreement consistent with expectations of the parties; and
WHEREAS, the express intent of the parties is not to give a pay raise to the employee but to
continue benefits as envisioned by the parties; now therefore,
IN CONSIDERATION OF the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties agree as follows:
1. Both parties recognize that the purpose of this amendment is to retroactively reform the
contract(s) with the Employee, to include the former automobile allowance as regular compensation.
2. The amounts of automobile allowance, if any, reported to the State as regular
compensation, but which were designated by contract as automobile allowance, shall be amended to be
included as regular compensation. No automobile allowance or transportation allowance is awarded
under any prior contract.
3. Nothing in this amendment shall be interpreted to add to or subtract from the amount
reported to the State as regular compensation but is intended to confirm that the amounts reported to the
State as regular compensation shall continue to be designated as regular compensation. The intent is to
make this amendment neutral. Cost of living increases and merit pay increase, if any, under the contracts
shall remain in effect; however, there shall be no additional cost of living or merit increases calculated
under this amendment for the inclusion of the formally designated automobile allowance as regular
compensation.
4. A print out from the State, which contains the amounts reported to the State by the
County, is attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit A, and shall become the agreed upon
calculation for salary and contributions under the contract dated December 18, 2002. This agreement
ctm January 15, 2003 until no longer employed by the County.
I v
WHEREOF, the parties have caused these presents to be executed in their respective
first set above.
