Agenda Item # _ 2
Columbus Consolidated Government
Council Meeting
December 15, 2009
Agenda Report # 453
TO: Mayor and Council
SUBJECT: FY2011 Holiday Schedule
INITIATED BY: City Manager's Office
Recommendation: Approval is requested of the attached Holiday Schedule for
the FY2011 Budget Year. It is recommended that Monday, December 27, 2010, be
designated as the floating holiday to enhance the Christmas Holiday, which
falls on Saturday, December 25, 2010.
Background: The Holiday Schedule has historically been approved by City
Council in December or January to assist various departments and organizations
in developing their calendar schedules. All holidays are established with the
exception of the floating holiday.
Analysis: The floating holiday has traditionally been used to extend a date
specific holiday (Independence Day, Christmas or New Year's Day) to provide a
long weekend for employees. This year Christmas Day is on Saturday, December
25, 2010 and the CCG will be closed on Friday, December 24; therefore, we are
recommending the Monday after Christmas December 27, 2010 be designated as the
floating holiday.
Alternatives: The floating holiday could be designated to follow a day
specific holiday, for example, extending the holiday weekend or adding Good
Friday, April 2, 2010. The floating holiday could also be designated to
recognize some other event or occasion.
Financial Considerations: None
Recommendation: Approval is requested of the attached Holiday Schedule for
the FY2011 Budget designating the Monday after Christmas, December 27, 2010,
as the floating holiday.
A RESOLUTION
No.
WHEREAS, all holidays are established with the exception of the floating
holiday; and,

December 24 because of the Saturday holiday.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE COUNCIL OF COLUMBUS, GEORGIA HEREBY RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:
