1952 <br />MINUTES OF THE READING RETIREMENT BOARD MEETING <br />Monday February 28, 2022 <br />The Reading Retirement Board held a special session meeting on February 28, 2022 in The Conference <br />Room at 2 Haven Street, Unit 307, Reading, Massachusetts. <br />The meeting was called to order at 9:30 A.M. by Chairman David Gentile with board members, Carol <br />Roberts, Sharon Angstrom, John Halsey and Assistant Board Administrator Elaine Kelly. Joseph <br />Coughlin was unable to attend. <br />OLD BUSINESS <br />Carol informed the Board members that at the last Board meeting on February 23, 2022, she took the <br />recording device, used to record both the regular session and the executive session, to the IT Manager to <br />have him extract the executive session and download them separately. Carol Roberts will prepare and <br />record the executive minutes. The Assistant Administrator will prepare and record the regular minutes. <br />The Chairman pointed out that the executive session minutes need to have a process that the Board goes <br />through them; clearing and then releasing them into record. This will be put on a future agenda. <br />Employee Handbook <br />Carol Roberts continues to lead the effort in updating the employee handbook, with feedback from all <br />Board members and the Retirement office staff. <br />Carol states that the Handbook is ready to have labor counsel review it, although one has not yet been <br />obtained. Sharon Angstrom will check with the town's Procurement officer to see if there's a dollar <br />amount before we would be required to do an RFP, stating that this would not require a lot of time. <br />Sharon will also contact PERAC again for additional guidance. <br />Carol would like to gathermore information and guidance on the issue involving the 2 -week <br />termination notice policy. She would also like labor counsel to discuss and clarify the issue of pro- <br />rating an employee's vacation time, as Atty. Sacco states that the Board cannot do that. The <br />Chairman asked for clarification regarding the authorizing of vacation time. The Chairman requests <br />that the 2 Retirement employees do not take vacation at the same time, which is not a standard <br />practice of the Retirement office. <br />The vacation timetable for all eligible employees has been revised, updating the current number of <br />vacation hours allotted to both Exempt and Non -Exempt employees. <br />The Chairman wanted clarification for the following; if a holiday falls on a Friday or Saturday <br />(nonscheduled work days) in a calendar year, the staff members will be granted an additional 9 hours <br />of holiday time, to be taken at a later date. The Board concurred, adding that the additional hours are <br />not to be taken simultaneously, enabling the Retirement office to remain open. The final wording is <br />being drafted. <br />
