Item # 16.F.2.

Executive Summary
Recommendation that the Board of County Commissioners extends the County Manager Employment Agreement to
September 30, 2027.
OBJECTIVE: To extend the term of the County Manager Agreement by two years.
CONSIDERATIONS: On June 28, 2022, the Board of County Commissioners and Amy Patterson entered into the
County Manager Employment Agreement.
Section 2.B of the Agreement provides as follows:
Section 2: Term
B. On or before September 30th of the year immediately preceding the then ending year of the Agreement, including
any applicable extensions, the term of this Agreement may be extended for a period of two (2) years by the mutual
written agreement of the parties. It is contemplated that the Board will base its decision on the question of whether
or not to grant the extension of the term of this Agreement on (1) the County Manager’s performance and (2) the
County Manager’s ability to successfully achieve goals mutually developed and agreed to by the County Manager
and the Board. The end date of the first extension term, if implemented, will be September 30th, so that the term of
this Agreement will ultimately correspond with the County’s fiscal year.
The Agreement is currently scheduled to expire on September 30, 2025. The proposed Extension of County Manager
Employment Agreement would extend this by two years, with the new end date of September 30, 2027.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no change in total amount of compensation (salary and benefits), funds are appropriated in
the County Manager Office operating budget.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no growth management impact associated with this item.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item has been reviewed by the County Attorney, is approved as to form and

Agreement to September 30, 2027.
