RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Board of Supervisors adopt a Resolution to:
a. Approve the 2015 Winter Recess for unrepresented Units P, X, XL, Y and Z (excluding elected officials in Unit Y).
b. Authorize the Auditor-Controller to implement the Winter/Eco Recess for the aforementioned Unit in the Advantage HRM system.

SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
In a collaborative environment, the County and SEIU (Units F, J, H & K) implemented the current bargaining agreement which included a three year "Winter/Eco Recess" for Fiscal Years 2013-2014; 2014-2015; and 2015-2016. In recent years, the Board has also granted the Winter/Eco Recess to certain unrepresented employee groups.
OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT:
The County Administrative Office concurs with this recommendation.
FINANCING:
Providing a “Winter/Eco Recess” to the unrepresented Units P, X, XL, Y and Z will not require any budget modifications as these costs are built into the FY 2015-16 Adopted Budget.
