#9(Mar) | Amendment | $0.00 | 03/28/2017 | 03/28/2017 | 06/30/2017 | We request a transfer of Twelve Thousand Dollars ($12,000.00) from #15 Television (Program Assoc.) to #8, Bus Benches for a better distribution of grant dollars. We have several 'hot spots' here in Miami-Dade (one north and one south) which are besieged with drive-bys and an increase in crime in general. We have started the bid process with several sources and although we have not decided on which source yet, we want to go this route for public awareness for the remainder of this grant year. We further request the transfer of Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00) from Line #73 Travel to Line #74 Accounting. The Board had requested an independent CPA come in and review and/or make suggestions for streamlining and maintenance of financial necessities of the program. See attachment for Salary. The request that $4193.15 be deducted from Line Item 94 (Salary - Exec. Director) and transferred to Line Item 88 (Salary- Maureen D. Hickey), which would reflect a full year's increase. Please note that in May, 2016 the Exec. Director gave notice to the BOD that he would be leaving on September 2, 2016. He would use the remainder of his sick and vacation time thus not being physically in the office the last month of his employ. Pres. Rice and Treas. Murphy met with Off. Manager, M. Hickey, and requested that she stay until a new Exec. Director and Admin. Assist be hired by the BOD. Ms. Hickey advised that she medically had not been released to return to work a 30-hour week. She would do her best to remain until the new calendar year. She asked that a 25-hour work week be considered with no change in her vacation time (4 weeks) or State paid holidays and she be considered a full-time employee. She further asked for a raise so she would clear (NET) up to $1500 per pay period and her sick leave be increased from 10 to 20 days/year, in exchange for an increased work load and training her replacement as well as showing the new Exec. Director the ropes, after which she would phase herself out of employment. $37.50/hr x 25 hr/wk= $893.75 x 52/wks/yr = $46.475.00 + $3900.00 ER taxes for a total of $50,375.00/yr. Additionally, we request that you note Christelynne McClure was rehired (employed as an Admin. Assist. Briefly during 2015-2016 grant year) in February of this (grant) year. The BOD offered a rehire at her old rate of pay at $16.50/hr. same benefits. She accepted. After giving it some thought she then met with the BOD and advised after her review of her new responsibilities she would like a $2.00/hr increase effective March 1, 2017, bringing her to $18.50/hr. After reviewing her new duties to include all office/clerical responsibilities, assisting BOD officers, assuming outgoing office manager's responsibilities such as liaison with local Federal, State, County and individual law enforcement municipalities, tracking all external rewards, scheduling community events with municipalities, grant, phones, ordering supplies for 2 offices, etc. As she was figured into this year's grant, but did not return, basically her full salary is available. The BOD granted her the increase in hourly pay (from $16.50 to 18.50/hr), with the same benefits (1 week paid vacation - 1 week sick leave and all state holidays) but maintained a 25 hr., 4-day work week. Her figures would be $18.50/hr x 25/hr/wk = $462.50/wk x 52/wk/yr = $24,050.00 + $2,200.00 ER taxes= a total of $26,250.00/yr. (based on a 12 month, a year - we are only looking at 4 months’ actual payment - until the grant year ends). $26,250.00/yr divided by 12/months = $2187.50/mo x 4/mo = $8750.00. |
