Attached is a list of the citizens and officials in attendance. The Commissioner's Court met to discuss with the representative from the Texas Association of Counties deductions for exempt Brazos County employees. Mary Ann Saenz, Human Resources expert from the Texas Association of Counties (TAC) addressed the issues. She discussed Fair Labor Standards Act and what the Court's options were in regard to exempt employees. She pointed out that elected officials are exempt from the Fair Labor Standards. She told the Court that Polk and Comal Counties have a flexible hours policy that allows exempt employees that Vol 133 Page 05a, Commissioners Court meeting May H, 2010 2 have worked over 8 hours in one day to use those hours at a later date. This is akin to a comp hour bank. Amy Bates, representing the Auditor's office noted that although the law does not prohibit this, it makes the exempt employees like hourly workers. Ms. Saenz went on to say that the Department of Labor looks harshly at deducting partial days. If this is the wish of the Court then it would be better to have a flex time bank.
