Subject:

Office Holiday Closure


RECOMMENDED ACTION:
APPROVE closure of Transportation Agency for Monterey County offices on December 28, 29 and 30, 2021.
SUMMARY:
Transportation Agency for Monterey County generally has minimal staff in the office during the period between Christmas and New Year’s Day. Many of the agencies that staff works with are also either closed or operate with minimal staff during the holiday period noted above. Closing the office will benefit the Agency financially.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Transportation Agency for Monterey County will benefit from the closure, as it will result in reduction of accrued time off which reduces a financial liability to the Agency.
DISCUSSION:

Transportation Agency for Monterey County generally has minimal staff in the office during the period between Christmas and New Year’s. Many of the agencies that staff works with are also either closed or operate with minimal staff during the holiday period noted above.

 

By approving the closure, staff would need to use 3 days (December 28, 29 and 30) of accrued vacation time, comp time or floating holidays. Although the office will be officially closed, some staff may work remotely, with prior approval from their supervisor. Early approval will allow staff to plan their schedules.
