Item B01 BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY Meeting Date: Jan.25. 2006 Bulk Item: Yes _ No-X- Division: BOCC Department: DISTRICT FIVE Staff Contact Person: Donna Hanson AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Approval of Amendment to Employment Agreement with Thomas J. Willi, County Administrator, raising the County Administrator's base salary by 4% to reflect the agreement entered into with Mayor Nelson for $10,000 bonus after one year. ITEM BACKGROUND: Given the scope of work and the outstanding job that Mr. Tom Willi has provided during the last year, a raise of 4% or $5,867, is warranted. The effective date of the increase will be October 1,2005. At its meeting on July 25,2005, the BOCC approved a $10,000 bonus to the County Administrator which was never implemented due to an Attorney General's opinion interpreting the state statute which precludes a payment of a bonus unless there is a bonus plan with specific provisions in place. PREVIOUS RELEVANT BOCC ACTION: As stated above. At the January 18,2006 Board meeting, the BOCC postponed this item to this date to discuss an evaluation of the County Administrator and the approval of the attached Amendment to Employment Agreement.
