City Manager, staff seeks City Council approval of an Employment Agreement delineating the terms and
conditions of Ms. Huizar's continued appointment to the position.
The proposed Employment Agreement prepared by the City Attorney's office, a copy of which is attached
as Exhibit A, reiterates the following terms and includes new provisions:
• The City Council shall review and discuss Clerk of the Council's annual performance in or around
July of each year commencing in 2013.
• City agrees that Clerk of the Council will be eligible for the same upward salary adjustments
provided to Executive Management and as approved by the City Council.
