Dear Mr. Colsey and Honorable Board Members:
TOWN SUPERVISOR
Christopher J. Colsey
TOWN BOARD
William H. Beale
Vincent Bettina
Ismay Czarniecki
Joseph P. Paoloni
As of this Friday, November 19th, 20111 will have 41.32 hours of accrued compensatory time. I have scheduled this
time off starting with approval of the Town Supervisor. I will be receiving additional compensatory time for the
additional board meetings this year and will use it weekly until finished.
My personal time as of December 1, 2010 will be 33 hours (4.71 days) and will be used in December on approved
days off.
My reason for writing to you is to request your approval on my accrued vacation time. As of my anniversary date of
November 2010 I will have accumulated 189 hours (27 days). The policy of the town is to allow 15 days to be carried
into the coming year and I am requesting permission to extend that number to the 27 days earned.
As for an explanation for the abundance of vacation time this year, due to my spinal surgery in May of 2010, I used
four weeks to recuperate before returning to work. Upon returning to work I began my new appointment as Zoning
Administrator while trying to also juggle as much work as I could for the planning board and the ZBA in anticipation
of a replacement to the position of PB & ZBA secretary. I did use one week of vacation in July and as a result found
myself further behind in a job that had been severely ignored for a very long time. I have since been working long
hours to un -clutter the zoning office of problems and issues that I have inherited.
In closing I respectfully request permission to carry the 27 days of accrued vacation time into the 2011 calendar year.
Very truly yours,
ArsBrbara Roberti
Zoning Administrator
