通俗摘要
Metro elected officials will be paid every two weeks, like staff
Metro's eight elected officials, the council president, councilors and auditor, are now paid twice a month, while all other Metro workers are paid every two weeks. This change puts the elected officials on the same every-two-weeks schedule. Their pay amounts do not change; the goal is to cut a separate manual payroll process before Metro switches to new finance and HR software called Workday in 2027.
Decision: Passed, 7 to 0.
Who it affects: Metro's eight elected officials and Metro's payroll staff.
Money: No change to how much elected officials are paid.
Next: Metro plans to launch the new Workday software by July 1, 2027.

The Metro Code Section below is amended as shown with underlined text representing
inserted text and strikethrough text representing deleted text.
2.01.170 Salary and Expenditure Reimbursement Guidelines
(a) Councilors shall be paid an authorized salary at the same time as regular Metro
employees. The amount of the salary shall be as prescribed by law. The annual salary shall
be divided into 24 equal payments. If a councilor vacates the ofϐice, he or she shall be paid on
a pro-rata basis for the number of working days from the last pay period. A councilor may
waive all or any portion of an authorized salary by signing a waiver form which indicates the
amount of salary waived and the period of time for the waiver. The waiver shall remain in
effect until written notice of cancellation is given prior to the commencement of the pay
period for which the waiver will no longer be in effect. A councilor who waives a salary must
sign a release form at the time of receipt of a salary which releases Metro from any further
obligation for the period of time for which the salary is paid.
(b) The council by resolution shall adopt guidelines for reimbursement of councilors for
expenses incurred in the conduct of business of Metro. The guidelines shall specify the
amount each councilor shall be allocated for authorized expenditures, the type of authorized
expenditure, and procedures for the request and approval of expenditure reimbursement
requests.
(c) Pursuant to Metro Charter Section 21(4), the salary paid to members of the Council is
the full and exclusive compensation that may be paid to them by Metro. Councilors may not
become employees of Metro during their term of ofϐice. Councilors shall receive an equivalent
beneϐit (health and welfare coverage) package received by full-time Metro employees but in
no event shall such beneϐits be measured based on any determination of the amount of time
devoted to ofϐicial duties. [Ord. 89-289, Sec. 1; Ord. 93-481, Sec. 1; Ord. 95-583B, Sec. 1; Ord.
