The motion carried unanimously. Consideration of Request from Harnett County Habitat for Humanity Land Donation-402 E Cole Street PIN#1516-88-8955.000 Assistant City Manager Billy Godwin presented a request from Habitat for Humanity of Harnett County for the City to donate its one-half interest in the property at 402 East Cole Street. He explained that in the 1990s,the City and county acquired this property together in a tax foreclosure.The county had previously donated its half-interest to Habitat,while the City retained its half. Mr. Godwin explained the legal process for such a donation, noting that cities can donate property to nonprofit organizations engaged in public purposes. The procedure would require Council to adopt a resolution,followed by a notice published in the newspaper,and after 10 days from publication,the City could convey the property. Council Member Hargis asked about the required waiting period, which Mr. Godwin explained was a statutory requirement. Mr. Hargis also noted that Habitat had sent a subsequent letter requesting$2,000 for cutting grass on the property.Mr.Godwin clarified that staffs recommendation was to donate only the property without remitting additional funds, and that the motion before Council addressed only the property donation. Motion by Council Member Hargis, seconded by Council Member J. Wesley Sills to adopt the Resolution Authorizing Conveyance of Real Property to Habitat for Humanity of Harnett County,Inc. a Nonprofit Corporation engaged in a Public Purpose and to direct the Clerk to publish the Notice of Resolution.A copy of the Resolution Authorizing Conveyance of Real Property to Habitat for Humanity of Harnett County, Inc., a Nonprofit Corporation engaged in a Public Purpose (R2025-42)is incorporated into these minutes as Attachment#1. Industrial District(s) Land Use Regulations/ Possible UDO Amendments City Manager Hembree explained that the City had received an inquiry from Samet about the maximum building height requirement and impermeable surface requirements for an industrial building planned for a site on Hwy 301 South.The current maximum building height allowed is 35 feet,which Samet indicated would not be adequate for their project. Mr.Hembree noted that staff would be researching what requirements are in place in other counties that successfully attract economic development projects,particularly Lee and Chatham counties. He indicated that staff would likely initiate a text amendment to the UDO through the planning board process,with a recommendation eventually coming to Council,probably at the October regular meeting. Council Member Bradham commented that when the UDO was initially adopted, Council understood it would be a "living, breathing document" that could be changed as needed. He suggested the Planning Department should regularly review the document to identify areas that need modification. Council Member Hargis questioned why the 35-foot height limit was implemented in the first place,noting that taller industrial buildings would be beneficial for economic development.Mr.Hembree explained that height restrictions sometimes relate to concerns about emissions stacks or other issues, and that some ordinances increase setback requirements as building height increases. Mr.Hembree emphasized that staying competitive with other areas for economic development projects is important,and that businesses often won't wait for text amendments or variance processes when selecting sites. No formal action was requested or taken on this item. ADMINISTRATIVE REPORTS City Manager's Report City Manager Justin Hembree reported that he had been on board for just over a month and things were going well as he gets to know the staff. He mentioned the high level of activity lately, particularly with preparation for the upcoming baseball tournament. Financial Report/Assessment Update Finance Director,Cary McNallan presented the Financial Report for June 30,2025,noting that the numbers were not yet final as some invoices and revenue for FY25 were still being processed. Cash balances as of July 7 were just over$10 million compared to$11.6 million last year.Additionally,there was a cash balance of$7.8 million in the construction account for the East Side Pump Station. General property taxes collected for May were$70,000,with a total of$5.8 million collected to date,which was about$100,000 over the estimated budget of$5.7 million.Sales tax for March receipts was$321,000, which was $5,400 more than the same month last year.April sales tax receipts were $313,000, $19,000 more than the same month last year. Building permits for June were$12,279,with a total of$124,000 collected to date,which was 78% of the budgeted amount.Mr.McNallan noted that the city had paid off a loan for the Harnett Training School last month,which would likely result in a decrease in the general fund balance. Council Member Sills asked when the sales tax revenue from the upcoming baseball tournament would be reflected in the financial reports. Mr.McNallan indicated that July sales tax wouldn't be received until the October 15th payment. Planning Mr. Hembree introduced Will Deaton,who is serving as the interim Planning Director through the City's contract with the COG. He explained that Mr. Deaton would help recruit a permanent Planning Director, evaluate staffing levels and processes,and assist with plan reviews and other planning matters. Parks&Recreation/Diamond Youth Baseball Series Parks&Recreation Director, Brian McNeil provided an update on preparations for the upcoming baseball tournament.He described it as a community effort involving parks and recreation,booster clubs,tourism, first responders, the county, and schools. Mr. McNeil detailed improvements made to the parks in preparation for the tournament, including updating parking lots, adding sod to ball fields to meet DYB regulations,adding fence gates and temporary fencing, completing playground updates at Tart Park,and replacing netting at Tyler Park. Mr. McNeil announced that the tournament opening ceremony would be held Thursday at Campbell University's Barker Lane Stadium, with gates opening at 4:00 PM, teams being fed at 5:00 PM, and the ceremony starting at 6:30 PM. The ceremony would be free to the public and feature several speakers, concluding with a performance by the Golden Knights.Games would begin on Friday with full play,followed by double elimination starting Saturday. The 6U Tournament at Tyler Park would conclude on Monday, while the 8U Tournament at Tart Park would wrap up Tuesday morning. Council Member Sills showed one of the goodie bags being given to players, filled with items donated by local businesses. He emphasized that thousands of people would be coming to town for the tournament and acknowledged the partnerships that made it possible, particularly crediting Carolyn Elmore for her relationship with Dixie Youth. Paving Public Works Director Dwayne Williams reported that on Monday,July 28th,TransitSystems would mark different site locations for paving.After that,the bidding process would begin,with contractors coming to look at the sites.Bids would likely be submitted by the third or fourth week of August,with paving expected to begin by the end of August. Mr.Williams explained that the projects would include a variety of paving types including crack seal,mill and fill,and patching. When asked about the timeline for the project, Mr. Williams noted it would depend on how quickly contractors could move forward and whether they received three bids initially. He also explained that asphalt work typically slows down when temperatures reach around 35-40 degrees,and that they had to consider whether there were any planned water and sewer projects that might tear up newly paved roads. City Manager Hembree mentioned that the total cost estimate for Phase 1 paving projects was around$1.3 million,while the city had about$1.1 million set aside.He indicated they would try to coordinate with DOT to see if any contractors working on DOT projects in the region could also bid on the city's project. Utilities/SOC Update Assistant City Manager Godwin provided an update on the Special Order of Consent(SOC)projects,noting that most projects had been completed.The Machine and Welding Outfall project was nearly finished,with only punch list items remaining. The Eastside Pump Station project was just getting underway with an estimated completion date of November 2026.The Black River Effluent Conveyance Improvements were also underway with an estimated completion date of 2026.The CDBG project was completed,and the SRF Collection System Rehab was underway with an estimated completion date of June 2026. Assistant City Manager Godwin and City Manager Hembree emphasized the significant achievement of completing or making substantial progress on these major infrastructure projects, noting that for a municipality of Dunn's size,even one of these projects would be substantial,yet the City had tackled seven or eight simultaneously. Assistant City Manager Godwin reported that the Pope Street/Spring Branch Road bridge was expected to open in September 2025, though the overall I-95 widening project was still estimated for completion in 2027. Council Member Bradham asked if these projects would satisfy the SOC requirements with the State. Mr. Godwin confirmed that the City has a legally binding agreement with DEQ that these projects would fulfill the requirements. Wayfinding Project Update Assistant City Manager Godwin reported that approximately 29 wayfinding signs had been installed around the City,with one sign needing to be turned around as it was pointing in the wrong direction.Another sign had not yet been installed but would be in the next couple of weeks.Additional directional signs would be ordered to complete Phase 1 of the project.Phase 2 would involve gateway signage at the entrances to the City. Council Member Hargis mentioned that he had received many compliments about the new signs, noting their clarity and readability compared to wayfinding signs in other towns. Code Enforcement Code Enforcement Officer,Stephen Hodges presented updates on three properties: • 309 South Orange: This property had high grass, overgrowth, and junk cars. After multiple unanswered letters,the city had a contractor clean up the property, cutting all overgrowth and removing debris and car parts. • A property between Interstate Trailers and a tactical gear store: Mr. Hodges had been trying to address this property for two years, with neighbors complaining about rats and snakes. The property owner had passed away,and his son was unresponsive to contractor referrals.The City had the approximately 4-acre property cut,which revealed rats,snakes,and hornets'nests. • 305 West Greenwood: This property had been approved by Council for demolition, and a contractor had completed the demolition after utilities were disconnected. Mr. Hodges mentioned he was working on another property at 125 Spring Branch that would soon be demolished. He reported having 28 active code violations, primarily for high grass, which were being addressed either by property owners or city contractors. Assistant City Manager Godwin noted that while the City places liens on properties when it has to take abatement actions,they needed to develop a better process for enforcing these liens to recoup costs and provide a deterrent. Council Member Hargis questioned the City's regulations regarding inoperable vehicles, suggesting that requirements for current registration should be stricter. Mr. Hodges explained that under current ordinances,a vehicle is considered operable if it can start and move forward and backward,regardless of whether it has current tags. City Manager Hembree mentioned that a new code enforcement position had been budgeted for the year and was currently being advertised. Announcements Mayor Elmore announced the following upcoming events: • Baseball Tournament from July 24th through 29th,with opening ceremonies at Campbell University on July 24th at 6:30 PM • Next City Council work session on Tuesday,August 12th at 6:30 PM • State of the City sponsored by the Dunn Area Chamber of Commerce on August 21st • Next regular City Council meeting on Tuesday,August 26th at 6:30 PM Closed Session Motion by Council Member Bradham,seconded by Council Member McNeil to go into closed session to instruct the public body's staff concerning the position to be taken by the public body in negotiating the price and terms of a contract for the acquisition of real property by purchase, option,exchange or lease.The motion carried unanimously.

I'm writing on behalf of the Harnett County Arts Council, a local nonprofit dedicated to enriching lives through the arts.We are excited to begin planning our 8th Annual ChatkFest,which we would love to host again in beautiful downtown Dunn on Saturday, October 4th. This annual event has become a community favorite—bringing families, artists, and visitors together to celebrate creativity in a vibrant and inclusive setting. Last year,we were excited to collaborate with the Dunn Farmers Market, and this year,we look forward to supporting the Shriners' Morning Breakfast as part of a lively, shared experience for residents and guests alike. As part of our vision for this year's event, we are kindly requesting your consideration for a temporary closure of a portion of E. Edgerton Street to help improve safety and create a more connected space between the events.While ChalkFest would like to remain centered in the public parking tot, the additional space would allow for more interactive art activities and enhance the overall atmosphere for all attendees. We've attached a map outlining our proposed layout and street closure request for your review.We understand this request requires careful consideration, and we greatly value your input and support as we shape this community experience together. As a nonprofit organization,we also respectfully ask if any associated fees for permits or street closures might be waived, if possible, to help ensure we can continue offering this free, family-friendly event for all to enjoy. We would love the opportunity to discuss the proposal further and answer any questions you may have. Thank you for your continued support of the arts and for helping us bring color, creativity, and connection to the heart of Dunn. My contact information is ksandersftharn t Org or 910-814-6028. Warm regards, Kittrane Sanders President Harnett County Arts Council CITY OF W NORTH CAROLINA Gt)/er&ceptnatit4 Xeeb c/ Work Session Meeting—August 12, 2025. Agenda Item(s): Agenda Item #6A—Future Use of Council Chambers for District Court Presenter(s): Justin Hembree, City Manager Billy Ray Godwin, Assistant City Manager Responsible Staff: Justin Hembree, City Manager Billy Ray Godwin, Assistant City Manager Action Item: Yes Attachment(s): None Background The Dunn City Council Chambers has,for decades, been a venue for Harnett County District Court. Over time, the frequency of use has diminished such that now, court in Dunn is only held once a month. The Chief District Court Judge is considering eliminating Dunn as a venue for District Court and this effort is supported by the Harnett County Sheriff, the Clerk of Superior Court, the District Attorney, and Dunn P.D. Chief Cary Jackson. Although the decision whether to eliminate Dunn as a District Court venue is not within the Council's domain, the Council's opinion on the matter has been requested. Budget Impact The City receives rental income for use of the courtroom. The income for FY 23 was $4,002; FY24 was $7,269; and FY 25 was $5,385. Staff Recommendation(s) Staff concurs in the effort to eliminate Dunn as a District Court venue and recommends that Council adopt a motion in support of the closure. Suggested Motion(s) Motion to direct staff to inform all relevant parties that the City has no objection to City Hall no longer being used as a venue for Harnett County District Court.

Work Session, August 12, 2025 Agenda Item(s): Agenda Item #6B— USDA Loans Presenter(s): Cary McNallan, Finance Director Responsible Staff: Cary McNallan, Finance Director Action Item: Yes Attachment(s): 1) Public Hearing Notice August 1, 2025 Purpose: a) Public Hearing: The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) requests that the City holds a public hearing for input for loans through their Community Development program. These hearings are to receive comments pertaining to loans we are pursuing. b) Decision: Background The City of Dunn is requesting financing for the following purchases: • $238,000 for a Public Works Boom Truck. • $ 52,000 for a Cab Tractor These vehicles are budgeted in FY26 through a Capital Project Ordinance and are estimated to be put in service by the fall of 2025. This hearing is one step in the loan/grant process and if the applications are approved by USDA, we anticipate closing on the loans and grants shortly after receiving the equipment. The interest rate, loan terms, and grant amounts are to be determined by the USDA once the closing date draws closer. Historically, we have received $50,000 in grant funds and the remainder in low interest loan funds. If USDA funds are not awarded, the City will request financing proposals from banking institutions Budget Impact Funding to repay the USDA loan will be budgeted starting in the FY27 budget. The estimated annual principal and interest payments for these pieces of equipment is $37,320 for ten years. Suggested Motion(s) Open the public hearing and receive comments from the public. Motion to approve City staff to submit an application to USDA for financing the FY26 equipment purchases. Page 1 of 1 PUBLIC NOTICE Public notice is hereby given that the City of Dunn will hold a public meeting on August 12, 2025 at 6:30 PM in the City Hall Council Chambers located at 401 E. Broad Street, Dunn, NC to receive com- ments pertaining to the proposed financing of vehicles for the Public Works Department. Funding for the proposed project will be through funding provided by USDA Rural Development and/or bank financing. Immediately after the public meeting, the City of Dunn will discuss the proposed project. All persons desiring to be heard either for or against the proposed item set forth above are requested to be in attendance at the time and date stated above. Melissa R. Matti City Clerk City of Dunn 8/1/2025 CITY OF 1887 NORTH CAROLINA Gtil er&c� kgu�.s/ Work Session, August 12, 2025 Agenda Item(s): Agenda Item #6C—Consideration of Funding of Police & Inspection Vehicles Presenter(s): Cary McNallan, Finance Director Responsible Staff: Cary McNallan, Finance Director Action Item: Yes Attachment(s): 1) Capital Project Ordinance Amendments 2) Budget Amendment Purpose: To discuss funding options for the FY25 Police Vehicle Purchases and the FY26 Inspection Vehicle Purchase. Background A Public Hearing was held on February 25, 2025, Council Meeting for the purpose of receiving public input for a United State Department of Agriculture (USDA) Loan Application for five police vehicles. No public input was received and the City Council approved moving forward with the loan application. As part of the loan application process, the City is required to obtain loan proposals from three private banking institutions. The USDA compares these proposals to the USDA proposal and will only approve the loan application if no other banking institution has a proposal that is better or equal to the USDA rate. During this latest USDA application, some of the bank proposals were better than the USDA proposal and therefore we are not eligible for the USDA Loan. Based on the above information and anticipating that this may also happen with the budgeted FY26 vehicle for the Inspections Department, staff is recommending that we amend the capital project ordinances for the five police vehicles ($304,975) and the inspection vehicle ($50,000) and change the funding source from installment proceeds to General Fund operating transfer which would be funded with General Fund Reserves. The City has adequate cash reserves for these purchases. The City is currently earning interest on its cash reserves at a lower rate than what we would pay in interest costs to borrow these funds. Budget Impact General Fund balance reserves of $354,975 would be used to fund the cost of the vehicles. This would also eliminate the need to budget any future principal and interest debt payments on these vehicles for the next five years. Suggested Motion(s) Motion to approve the attached Capital Project Ordinance Amendments and the Budget Amendment. Page 1 of 1 !

Background On June 24, 2025, the City Council adopted the FY26 Fee Schedule as part of the annual budget adoption process. Staff have recently discovered that some changes to the adopted schedule need to be addressed to provide a more accurate record of the required fees. Corrections: Original Fee Schedule: Registration Fee for solicitation or peddling was listed as a $20 fee. Revised Fee Schedule: Listing of three separate peddler categories with varying fees. Addition: Original Fee Schedule: Precious Metal Dealer Permit fees were omitted. Revised Fee Schedule: Listing of the Precious Metal Dealer permit application fee of$180 and the employee registration fee of$10 per employee. These fees are established by state statute 45-66. Budget Impact These fees will increase General Fund Revenues but will have a minimal impact on the overall budget.

Background On October 12, 2021, the City Council approved a Capital Project Ordinance for the CDBG- Sewer Collection System Project with a total budget of $1,999,129. This project has now been completed, and the final grant allocation has been received. During the construction bidding process, the scope of the project was reduced for various reasons and therefore, some of the budgeted grant funds were not received.

CITY OF 111DUNN 1887 NORTH CAROLINA Gtiter&ce,/,totztA4 ' utsi Work Session, August 12, 2025 Agenda Item(s): Agenda Item #6F- Personnel Policy Amendment Presenter(s): Connie Jernigan, Human Resources Director Responsible Staff: Connie Jernigan, Human Resources Director Action Item: No Attachment(s): 1) Article III: The Pay Plan Section 12. Overtime Pay Provisions Purpose: Heading into storm/hurricane season, staff presents for consideration/discussion an amendment to the City of Dunn Personnel Policy, Overtime Pay Provisions section. Attached for discussion is a proposed amendment that would allow for overtime pay for exempt employees during a declared State of Emergency at the normal rate of pay. Background The intent of the proposed change is to provide compensation to exempt employees that are requested to working during states of emergencies. Some exempt employees often work numerous hours during emergency situations. FEMA will typically provide reimbursement for such overtime payments. However, a policy must be in place prior to the state of emergency in question being declared. This item is presented for discussion. No action is requested. Budget Impact Will vary based upon State of Emergency issuance. Suggested Motion(s) No specific motion suggested at this time. Page 1 of 1 ARTICLE III. THE PAY PLAN Section 1. Definition The pay plan includes the basic salary schedule and the "Assignment of Classes to Grades and Ranges" adopted by the Council. The salary schedule consists of steps for minimum or beginning, maximum, and intervening rates of pay for all classes of positions. Section 2. Administration and Maintenance The City Manager, assisted by the Human Resource Officer shall be responsible for the administration and maintenance of the pay plan. All employees covered by the pay plan shall be paid at a rate within the salary range established for the respective position classification, except for employees in trainee status or employees whose existing salaries are above the established maximum rate following transition to a new pay plan. The pay plan is intended to provide equitable compensation for all positions, reflecting differences in the duties and responsibilities, the comparable rates of pay for positions in private and public employment in the area, changes in the cost of living, the financial conditions of the City, and other factors. To this end, from time to time the Human Resource Officer shall make comparative studies of all factors affecting the level of salary ranges and will recommend to the City Manger such changes in salary ranges as appear to be pertinent. Such assignments will be made by increasing or decreasing the assigned salary grade for the class and adjusting the rate of pay for employees in the class when the action is approved by the City Council. Section 3. Starting Salaries All persons employed in positions approved in the position classification plan shall be employed at the minimum salary of their classification in which they are employed; however, exceptionally well qualified applicants may be employed above the minimum of the established salary range upon approval of the City Manager. Section 4. Trainee Designation and Provisions Applicants being considered for employment or City employees who do not meet all of the requirements for the position for which they are being considered may be hired, promoted, demoted, or transferred to a "trainee" status. In such cases, a plan for training, including a time schedule, must be prepared by the department head. "Trainee" salaries shall be one or no (more than) two grades below the minimum salary established for the position for which the person is being trained. A new employee designated as "trainee" shall concurrently serve a probationary period. However, probationary periods shall be no less than six months and trainee periods may extend from three to eighteen months. 11 If the training is not successfully completed to the satisfaction of the City, the trainee shall be transferred, demoted, or dismissed. If the training is successfully completed, the employee shall be paid at least at the minimum rate established for the position for which the employee was trained. Section 5. Probationary Pay Increases Employees hired, promoted, or reclassified below the minimum rate of pay shall receive a salary increase within the pay range of approximately 5% or to the minimum rate, which ever is less, upon successful completion of the probationary period. Employees serving a twelve-month probationary period may be considered for this increase after six months of employment. Employees hired or promoted above the hiring rate of the pay table may be considered for probationary increase of up to 5%based upon performance. Section 6. Merit Pay Upward movement within the established salary range for the employee is not automatic but rather based upon specific performance-related reasons. Employees may be considered for advancement within the established salary range based on the quality of their overall performance. Procedures for determining performance levels and performance pay increases shall be established in procedures approved by the City Manager. Section 7. Merit Pay Bonus Employees who are at the top step of the salary range for their position classification are eligible to be considered for a Merit Bonus at their regular performance evaluation time. Performance bonuses shall be awarded based upon the performance of the employee as described in the performance evaluation and shall be the same percentage of annual salary as employees within the salary range with the same performance level. Merit bonuses shall be awarded in lump sum payments. Section 8. Salary Effect of Promotions,Demotions,Transfers, and Reclassifications Promotions. When an employee is promoted,the employee's salary shall normally be advanced to the minimum level of the new position, or to a salary which provides an increase of at least approximately 5% over the employee's salary before the promotion, provided, however, that the new salary may not exceed the maximum rate of the new salary range. The purpose of the promotion pay increase is to recognize and compensate the employee for taking on increased responsibility. Demotions. When an employee is demoted to a position for which qualified, the salary shall be set at the rate in the lower pay range which provides a salary commensurate with the employees' qualifications to perform the job when the demotion is not the result of discipline. If the current salary is within the new range, the employee's salary may be retained at the previous rate if appropriate. Consideration should be given to whether the employee is receiving the same pay for decreased workload or responsibility level and action should be appropriate to this consideration. If the demotion 12 is the result of discipline, the salary shall be decreased at least approximately 5%, and may he no greater than the maximum of the new range. Transfers. The salary of an employee reassigned to a position in the same class or to a position in a different class within the same salary range shall not be changed by the reassignment. Reclassifications. An employee whose position is reclassified to a class having a higher salary range shall receive a pay increase of approximately 5%or an increase to the hiring rate of the new pay range, whichever is higher. If the employee has completed probation, the employee's salary shall be advanced to at least the minimum (probation completion) amount in the new range. If the position is reclassified to a lower pay range, the employee's salary shall remain the same. If the employee's salary is above the maximum established for the new range, the salary of that employee shall be maintained at the current level until the range is increased above the employee's salary. Section 9. Salary Effect of Salary Range Revisions When a class of positions is assigned to a higher salary range, employees in that class shall receive a pay increase of at least approximately 5%, or to the hiring rate of the new range, whichever is higher. If the employee has passed probation,the employee's salary shall be advanced at least to the minimum (probation completion) amount in the new range. When a class of positions is assigned to a lower salary range, the salaries of employees in that class will remain unchanged. If this assignment to a lower salary range the salaries of the employees in that class will remain unchanged. If the assignment to a lower class range results in an employee being paid at a rate above the maximum rate established for the new class, the salary of that employee shall be maintained at that level until such time as the employee's salary range is increased above the employee's current salary. Section 10. Transition to a New Salary Plan The following principles shall govern the transition to a new salary plan: 1) No employee shall receive a salary reduction as a result of the transition to a new salary plan. 2) All employees being paid at a rate lower than the hiring rate established for their respective classes shall have their salaries raised to the new hiring rate for their classes. 3) All employees being paid at a rate below the maximum rate established for their respective classes shall be paid at a rate within the salary schedule 4) All employees being paid at a rate above the maximum rate established for their respective classes shall be maintained at that salary level until such time as the employees' salary range is increased above the employees' current salary. 13 Section 11. Effective Date of Salary Changes Salary changes approved after the first working day of a pay period shall become effective at the beginning of the next pay period or at such specific date as may be provided by procedures approved by the City Manager. Section 12. Overtime Pay Provisions Employees of the City can be requested and may be required to work overtime hours as necessitated by the needs of the City and determined by the Department Head. To the extent that local government jurisdictions are so required, the City will comply with the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). The Human Resource Officer shall determine which jobs are "non- exempt" and are therefore subject to the Act in areas such as hours of work and work periods, rates of overtime compensation, and other provisions. Non-exempt employees will be paid at a straight time rate for hours up to the FLSA established limit for their position(usually 40 hours in a 7 day period; 171 hours for police personnel in a 28 day cycle). Hours worked beyond the FLSA established limit will be compensated in either time or pay at the appropriate overtime rate. In determining eligibility for overtime in a work period, only hours actually worked shall be considered. Whenever practicable, departments will schedule time off on an hour-for-hour basis within the applicable work period for non-exempt employees, instead of paying overtime. When time off within the work period cannot be granted, overtime worked will be paid in accordance with the FLSA. In no event will vacation, sick, compensatory leave or holidays be included in the computation of hours worked for FLSA purposes. Employees in positions determined to be "exempt" from the FLSA (as Executive, Administrative, or Professional staff) will not receive pay for hours worked in excess of their normal work periods. These employees may be granted compensatory leave by their supervisor where the convenience of the department allows and in accordance with the procedures established by the City Manager. Such compensatory time is not guaranteed to be taken and ends without compensation upon separation from the organization. During a declared emergency, as defined in NCGS 166A, exempt employees shall be paid overtime wages for hours worked beyond (40) forty hours per work week, at a rate equal to their normal rate of pay. Section 13. Call-back The City provides a continuous twenty-four hour a day, seven day a week service to its customers. Therefore, it is necessary for certain employees to respond to any reasonable request for duty at any 14 hour of the day or night. One of the conditions of employment with the City is the acceptance of a share of the responsibility for continuous service, in accordance with the nature of each job position. If an employee fails to respond to reasonable calls for emergency service, either special or routine, the employee shall be subject to disciplinary actions up to and including dismissal. Call-back. Non-exempt employees will be guaranteed a minimum payment of two hour's wages for being called back to work outside of normal working hours. "Call-back" provisions do not apply to previously scheduled overtime work(scheduled one or more days in advance). Section 14. Payroll Deduction Deductions shall be made from each employee's salary, as required by law. Additional deductions may be made upon the request of the employee on determination by the City Manager as to capability of payroll equipment and appropriateness of the deduction. Section 15. Hourly Rate of Pay Employees working in a part-time or temporary capacity with the same duties as full-time employees will work at a rate in the same salary range as the full-time employees. The hourly rate for employees working other than 40 hours per week, such as police officers working an average 42 hours per week, will be determined by dividing the average number of hours worked scheduled per year into the annual salary for the position. Section 16. Longevity Pay Full-time employees of the City may be compensated for years of service by payment of a longevity supplement as established by the City Council. 15 CITY OF ,;.,,,: 1887 NORTH CAROLINA Grllzer�ce ,6egb tsi Announcements : • The State of the City is scheduled for August 21st. - 11:30 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. at the Dunn Community Building • A regular Meeting of the Dunn City Council is scheduled for Tuesday, August 26th at 6:30 p.m. • The next Work Session of the Dunn City Council is scheduled for Tuesday, September 9th at 6:30 p.m. CITY OF hid DuNN 1887 NORTH CAROLINA Where cr�inn t4 A?giirS Closed Session (Specify one or more of the following permitted reasons for closed sessions) Move that we go into closed session in accordance with: [N.C.G.S. 143-318.11(a)(1)] Prevent the disclosure of privileged information Under the North Carolina General Statutes or regulations.
