Lengthy discussion took place regarding difficult cases with increased mental health and behavioral issues, programs offered, and the need to hold juveniles when picked up until after their court appearance. The ability to hold juveniles would keep out-of- home placement transportation costs down. Ms. Lutzwick indicated that the County uses the Moorhead Detention facility when possible and requested approval of the West Central Regional Juvenile Center (WCRJC) Annual Purchase Agreement. Motion by Huebsch, second by Rogness and unanimously carried to authorize the 2019 Annual Purchase Agreement between the County of Otter Tail and the Clay County WCRJC for out-of-home placement costs in the amount of $554,001, as presented.

Discussion Regarding Possible Animal Control and Nuisance Ordinance Greg Seim, Lieutenant; Jessica Metzger, Public Health Nurse; and Michelle Eldien, County Attorney; spoke with the Board regarding the challenges of developing an Animal Control and Nuisance Ordinance. They reported that Exotic Animals are currently regulated under state and federal statutes. Creating an ordinance for feral cats and nuisances could affect a large group of people with unattended consequences. The County Attorney indicated that, in most cases, there is already a law or rule that regulates these situations. Property Tax Assessment Abatement Policy Doug Walvatne, County Assessor, explained that some mistakes, specifically when structures are placed on a parcel incorrectly, cannot be corrected by clerical means as has been past practice. This was discovered during an audit performed by the Minnesota Department of Revenue (DOR).

The revised Abatement Policy will be posted on the Otter Tail County website under “Ordinances & Policies”.

He referred to recommendations on Page 8 of the report. Beth Nelson and Fonda Knudson, Co-chairs of the Adult Mental Health LAC, submitted several documents and referred to recommendations. Discussion followed regarding the challenges people face with inadequate insurance to obtain medication and lack of adequate housing and psychiatry services. Commissioners requested that these items be discussed further in three months along with the probation update discussion as some of these issues tie together.

The arbitrator shall have no right to amend, modify, nullify, ignore, add to, or subtract from the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The arbitrator shall consider and decide on only the specific issue(s) submitted in writing by the Employer and the Union and shall have no authority to make a decision on any other issue, not so submitted. B. The arbitrator may not ignore the language of the Agreement to pursue the rule of the shop or other considerations beyond the scope of the written Agreement, unless consideration of the rule of the shop or other considerations are necessary to an understanding of the issue or contract language or unless necessary to an understanding of the way the Agreement has been implemented. The arbitrator shall be without power to make decisions contrary to, or inconsistent with, or modifying or varying in any way, the applications of laws, rules or regulations having the force and 7 HS Support Specialists and PH Staff – CBA 2016-20182019-2021 effect of law.

C. The fees and expenses for the arbitrator's services and the proceedings shall be borne equally by the Employer and the Union, provided that each party shall be responsible for compensating its own representatives and witnesses. If either party desires a verbatim record of the proceedings, it may cause such a record to be made, providing it pays for the record. If both parties desire a verbatim record of the proceedings, the cost shall be shared equally. 7.6 WAIVER: If a grievance is not presented within the time limit set forth above, it shall be considered waived. If a grievance is not appealed to the next Step within the specified time limit, or any agreed extension thereof, it shall be considered settled on the basis of the Employer's last answer. If the Employer does not answer a grievance, or an appeal thereof, within the specified time limit, the Union may elect to treat the grievance as denied at that Step and may immediately appeal the grievance to the next Step. The time limit in each Step may be extended by the mutual agreement of the Employer and the Union. 7.7 Choice of Remedy: If, as a result of the written Employer response in Step 3, the grievance remains unresolved, and if the grievance involves the suspension, demotion, or discharge of an employee who has completed the required probationary period, the grievance may be appealed to either Step 4 of Article VII or a procedure such as Civil Service, Veterans Preference, etc. If appealed to any procedure other than in Step 4 of Article VII, the grievance is not subject to the arbitration procedure as provided in Step 4 of Article VII. The aggrieved employee shall indicate in writing which procedure is to be utilized - Step 4 of Article VII or another appeal procedure - and shall sign a statement to the effect that the choice of any other hearing precludes the aggrieved employee from making a subsequent appeal through Step 4 of Article VII. ARTICLE VIII (8). SAVINGS CLAUSE This Agreement is subject to the laws of the United States, the State of Minnesota, and the County of Otter Tail.

Lay off, including involuntary reduction in work hours, as determined by classification within a department, shall be by inverse order of classification seniority. However, an employee about to be laid off shall have the right to bump (displace) a less senior employee within the classification. B. Recall from lay off, which shall be by classification within a department, in inverse order of lay off, provided that, if an employee does not return to work upon recall, as directed by the Employer, or on an extended date mutually acceptable to the employee and Employer, he/she shall automatically have terminated his/her employment. Recall notification shall be by first class mail to the employee's last known address for an indefinite lay off, and shall be contained in the lay off notice for lay offs for a definite period. An employee's name shall remain on the recall list for one year, at which time all rights to recall shall terminate. C.

No new employees shall be 9 HS Support Specialists and PH Staff – CBA 2016-20182019-2021 hired in a work classification within a department where there are employees on lay off status qualified to perform the job, until all laid off employees have been recalled in accordance with the above. 9.5 A. The Employer shall promote the most qualified candidate. When all other qualifications are equal, the Employer shall promote the applicant with the greater department seniority for the job opening. B. An employee promoted or transferred will serve a trial period of ninety (90) days. During the trial period, the employee or his/her supervisor may request return to a position of comparable duties, number of hours paid and classification, or, if available, the former position. 9.6 All vacancies and newly created positions within the bargaining unit shall be posted. Employees shall have ten (10)five (5) working days after posting to complete application for such vacancies or newly created positions. When all other qualifications are equal, the senior employee shall be chosen for the vacancy or newly created position. Positions where incumbents are reclassified shall not be considered vacant or newly created for the purpose of posting. ARTICLE X (10). DISCIPLINE 10.1 Disciplinary action may be taken against an employee for just cause. Disciplinary measures include the following: A. Verbal reprimand; B. Written reprimand; C. Suspension; D. Demotion; or E. Discharge. 10.2 If a department head or supervisor has reason to reprimand an employee, it will be done in a manner that will not embarrass the employee before other employees or the public. When disciplinary action is more severe than a verbal reprimand is intended, the department head or supervisor will, before or at the time such action is taken, notify the employee in writing of the specific reason(s) for the action. 10.3 Written reprimands, notices of suspension and notices of discharge which are to become part of an employee's personnel file shall be read and acknowledged by signature of the employee.
