Columbus Consolidated Government



Council Meeting



01/10/2006



Agenda Report # 84





TO: Mayor and Council



SUBJECT: FY2007 Holiday Schedule



INITIATED BY: City Manager's Office







Recommendation: Approval is requested of the attached Holiday Schedule for

FY2007 Budget Year. It is recommended that Monday, July 3, 2006, be designated

as the floating holiday to enhance the Independence Day Holiday, which falls on

Tuesday, July 4, 2006.



Background: The Holiday Schedule has historically been approved by City Council

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 Independence Day is on Tuesday, July 4,

2006; therefore, we are recommending Monday, July 3, 2006 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 14, 2006 or Columbus Day, October 9, 2006 as an option. 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

FY2007 Budget designating Tuesday, July 3, 2006 as the floating holiday.

WHEREAS, all holidays are established with the exception of the floating

That the attached Holiday Schedule for FY2007 is hereby approved designating

the FY2007 floating holiday as Monday, July 3, 2006.
