MINUTES – BOARD OF DIRECTORS – SAN DIEGO COMMUNITY POWER 2 SPECIAL MEETING AGENDA
1. Board and Employee Child Care During Attendance at Certain Meetings or Events on Behalf of SDCP
Assistant General Counsel Norvell summarized the proposed amendment to the Board Compensation and Reimbursement Policy and explained the purpose for the proposed amendment.
The amendment to the Board Compensation and Reimbursement Policy was as follows:
• Authorize the Directors to receive reimbursement for reasonable child care expenses for attending a Board of Directors meeting other than regularly scheduled Board of Directors meetings; because the need to attend special meetings can sometimes arise at the last minute, the reimbursement for those special meetings would not be required to be pre-authorized by the Board of Directors. The reimbursement rate for childcare expenses would be limited to $20 per hour for the length of the meeting. The Director would be required to submit a claim form and supporting documentation regarding the expenditure.
Board questions and comments ensued.
ACTION: Motioned by Director Lawson-Remer (San Diego Couny) and seconded by Vice Chair Padilla (Chula Vista) to: (1) adopt Resolution No. 2022-06 amending the Board Compensation and Reimbursement Policy to provide reimbursement for reasonable child care expenses during attendance at certain meetings of the Board of Directors and to authorize the Chief Executive Officer to establish a program to provide employee child care and/or reimbursement of reasonable child care expenses for attendance at meetings or events outside of business hours; and (2) direct the Human Resources personnel, once hired, to conduct a comprehensive review of all San Diego Community Power’s policies including the child care policy. The motion carried by the following vote: Lawson-Remer/Padilla Vote: 6-0
Yes: Chair Mosca (Encinitas), Vice Chair Padilla (Chula Vista), Director Dedina (Imperial Beach), Alternate Director Humora (La Mesa), Director Sotelo-Solis (National City), and Director Lawson-Remer (San Diego County)
No: None
