of the
City Manager of the City of Eugene
REPEAL OF SICK LEAVE ADMINISTRATIVE RULE R-4.582
ESTABLISHED BY ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 21-15-01-F.
The City Manager of the City of Eugene finds as follows:
A. Section 2.019 of the Eugene Code, 1971 ("EC"), authorizes the City Manager to
adopt rules for implementation of any provisions of that Code.
B. On July 28, 2014, Ordinance No. 20537 was adopted establishing minimum
standards for sick leave for employees who work inside the City. The Ordinance provided that the
Sick Leave provisions (EC 4.570 through 4.584) not become effective until July 1, 2015.
C. Pursuant to EC 2.019 and 4.582, on January 31, 2015, Administrative Order No.
21-15-01-F was issued establishing Sick Leave Administrative Rule R-4.582.
D. On June 17, 2015, Ordinance No. 20553 was adopted amending Ordinance No.
20537 to provide that the City's sick leave provisions not become effective until January 1, 2016,
and that Ordinance No. 20537 be automatically repealed on January 1, 2016, in the event that the
B -Engrossed version of SB 454 (requiring all Oregon employers to implement paid sick time for
employees) was signed into law by the Governor and not referred to the voters.
E. SB 454 was signed into law by the Governor and was not referred to the voters.
Therefore, Ordinance No. 20537 and the City's sick leave provisions were automatically repealed
on January 1, 2016. The repeal of Ordinance No. 20537 rendered Administrative Order No. 21-
15-01-F moot and, as a maintenance matter, that Order should be repealed.
On the basis of these findings, I order that Administrative Order No. 21-15-01-F is
repealed.
Dated this 5'71-1 day of January, 2016.
