"payroll processing period" the manual pay check will be issued the day after the close
of payroll. The check will be mailed to the employee's current address, or upon request,
may be picked up in Personnel Services after 4:30 PM on the day the check is issued.
Final pay may be deposited into a bank account on the last working day of the month by

SECTION VI, SICK LEAVE BANK SUBSECTION: Amend Subsection Ito read as follows:
There shall be no sick or vacation accrual by an employee while on Sick Leave Bank
time unless the leave falls under the Family and Medical Leave Act.
SECTION VI, MILITARY LEAVE OF ABSENCE SUBSECTION: Amend to read as follows:
Any elected official, department head, or employee who is a member of the National
Guard or reserve forces is entitled to receive up to 15 days per calendar year military
leave of absence ("military leave"). Military leave is granted without loss of pay,

Upon returning to work the elected official, department head, or employee shall pay to

spent performing required military training or service, exclusive of any travel allowance
or other expenses paid as indicated on the military voucher. The individual has the
option of keeping his military pay in lieu of receiving his regular pay from Weld County
for the time during which he was engaged in the military training or service. If an
employee elects to keep the military pay, the Weld County regular pay will be reduced
by the per day rate of the Military pay for each work day served, up to 15 days. The per
day rate is determined by the amount of the basic pay divided by the number of days
served as indicated on the military pay voucher. The employee must provide a military
pay voucher for the time period served to determine the per day rate and must forward a
copy to Personnel Services (for Payroll) within 30 days of returning to work at Weld
County.
If an elected official's, department head's, or employee's military status changes from
reserve to active in time of war or other emergency as declared by proper military
authority (extending beyond the 15 days per calendar year), the individual shall be
entitled to leave without pay until reinstated following the active service time.
Copies of military orders shall be submitted to the individual's supervisor and Weld
County Personnel Services at least two weeks prior to the beginning of military leave.
For more detailed information regarding military leave, contact Weld County Personnel
Services. Weld County complies with all sections of Title 38, U.S. Code, Chapter 43,

WELD, STATE OF COLORADO:
WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners of the County of Weld, State of Colorado,
pursuant to Colorado statute and the Weld County Home Rule Charter, is vested with the
authority of administering the affairs of Weld County, Colorado, and
WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners has the power and authority, under the Weld
County Home Rule Charter and the Colorado County Home Rule Powers Act, Article 35 of Title
30, Colorado Revised Statutes, and in specific, under Section 30-35-201(7), C.R.S., to adopt by
ordinance, Personnel Policy Rules and Regulations for the County of Weld, State of Colorado,
and
WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners has previously adopted Ordinance No. 118-J,
the Weld County Personnel Policy Handbook, and has adopted amendments in Ordinance No.
118-K through 118-P, and
WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners hereby finds and determines that there is a
need to amend portions of said Ordinance No. 118-J, as amended, and
WHEREAS, this Ordinance is for the benefit of the health, safety, and welfare of the people of
the County of Weld.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED by the Board of County Commissioners of the County
of Weld, State of Colorado, that Ordinance No. 118-J, as amended, be, and hereby is,
amended as follows:
SECTION IV, SUSPENSION AND TERMINATION FOR CHARGE WITH CRIME
SUBSECTION: Delete existing text and replace with the following.
In the event an employee is formally charged or indicted for the commission of a crime, the
Department Head/Elected Official or a designee may suspend such employee without pay,
pending prosecution of the offense. Unless the circumstances are such that immediate action
must be taken, the Department Head/Elected Official or a designee should hold a hearing with
the employee prior to a suspension without pay. If the circumstances warrant an immediate
suspension without pay, the Department Head/Elected Official or a designee should hold a
hearing with the employee as soon after the suspension takes effect as is practicable. The
employee should be informed of the reason for the hearing and should be afforded an
opportunity to respond to the charges. The hearing may be very informal, with no required prior
notice. No other person besides the Department Head/Elected Official or a designee, and the
employee may be present at the hearing. If the Department Head/Elected Official determines,
based upon the situation, that immediate disciplinary action is appropriate, a hearing as set
forth in the section herein entitled DISCIPLINARY ACTIONS may take place instead of a
hearing as provided in this section.
If an employee is found guilty of any crime by a court or jury, the County shall immediately
suspend such employee without pay until the employee's conviction shall become final at the
time the employee is sentenced. Notwithstanding the suspension based upon the criminal
proceeding in which the employee is involved, the County may conduct its own internal
investigation of the employee's actions and other job performance. The Department
Head/Elected Official is authorized to take any appropriate discipline concerning the employee
at any time, up to, and including termination. In addition, at the time such employee's
conviction is final (i.e., after a finding of guilt and sentencing by a court or other tribunal),
notwithstanding any prior disciplinary action, the employee may be terminated. A deferred
judgment and sentence upon a plea of guilty or nolo contendere shall be deemed to be a final
conviction at the time the employee enters the plea and such plea is accepted by the Court.
During the period of time that the employee is suspended with or without pay, the employee is
required to notify the Department Head/Elected Official of any change in address, phone
number, or the status of the criminal case. If an employee's suspension without pay continues
for more than three months and there has been no disciplinary action taken by the Department
Head/Elected Official, the employee may request that the Department Head/Elected Official or
a designee further investigate the matter. If the Department Head/Elected Official or a
designee determines, based upon the results of the investigation, that disciplinary action is not
yet warranted, an additional informal hearing may be held with the employee to determine the
status of the criminal proceedings. For so long as the employee is suspended without pay, the
employee may request a review of the employee's status at reasonable intervals of not less
than three months until such time the employee's conviction is final as defined herein.
For the purposes of this section, "crime" shall be defined as a felony or class 1 or 2
misdemeanor as defined by state law, or a comparable federal or municipal crime or crime in
some other state. The term "crime" does not include petty offenses.
SECTION VI, VACATION LEAVE SUBSECTION: Amend to read as follows:
No annual leave is earned by temporary, part-time, seasonal, hourly paid employees or initial
review employees during their first six months of their employment. During the first six (6)
months, employees in the initial review period will not accrue vacation leave. Upon successful
completion of their first six (6) months, employees will be awarded their earned vacation hours.
Successful completion means that the employee meets or exceeds appraisal standards on the
employee's six month appraisal. Employees may schedule vacation leave after the successful
completion of their first six (6) months.
SECTION VI, SICK LEAVE BANK SUBSECTION: Amend Subsection C.8. to read as follows:
8. If the request is granted, the Sick Leave Bank days will not begin until after thirty calendar
days have expired. This thirty day elimination period begins on the first day of leave, whether it
is paid or not.
SECTION VI, UNPAID FAMILY AND MEDICAL LEAVE POLICY SUBSECTION: Amend last
paragraph of Subsection C as follows:
If husband and wife both work for the county and each wishes to take leave for the birth of a
child, adoption, or placement of a child in foster care, or to care for a child with a serious health
condition, the husband and wife may only take a total of 12 weeks of leave.
SECTION VI, BEREAVEMENT LEAVE SUBSECTION: Amend to read as follows:
Leave of absence with pay because of death in the immediate family may be granted to regular
employees by the Department Head/Elected Official for a period not to exceed three days.
Entitlement to leave of absence under this section shall be in addition to any other leave. For
purposes of this section "immediate family" means mother, stepmother, father, stepfather,
spouse, son, stepson, daughter, stepdaughter, brother, sister, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son
or daughter-in-law, grandparents, spouse's grandparents, grandchild, foster parent, foster child,
guardian, nephew, niece, aunt, or uncle.
SECTION X, APPEARANCE/DRESS SUBSECTION: Add the following as the last sentence:
While on duty County employees are not permitted to wear any visible body piercing
ornamentation except on the ears.
SECTION X, SEAT BELT USE SUBSECTION: Amend to read as follows:
All drivers will wear seat belts while operating County vehicles or when operating personal
vehicles on County business. Drivers will be responsible to insure that all passengers in the
vehicle have fastened their seat belts while the vehicle is in motion.
SECTION X, SMOKING POLICY SUBSECTION: Amend to read as follows:
Smoking is prohibited in all County buildings and County vehicles. Smoking is prohibited within
fifty (50) feet of any entrance to all County buildings.
BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED by the Board that this Ordinance shall become effective five days
after its final public notice, as provided by Section 3-14(2) of the Weld County Home Rule
Charter.
BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED by the Board if any section, subsection, paragraph, sentence,
clause, or phrase of this Ordinance is for any reason held or decided to be unconstitutional,
such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions hereof. The Board of County
Commissioners hereby declares that it would have enacted this Ordinance in each and every
section, subsection, paragraph, sentence, clause, and phrase thereof irrespective of the fact
that any one or more sections, subsections, paragraphs, sentences, clauses, or phrases might
be declared to be unconstitutional or invalid.
