Resolution

RECOMMENDATION:                                                                                                                       

Adopt the Resolution R2023-05-01 to approve Amendment Two to Jay Fox’s Employment Agreement.

BACKGROUND:                                                                                                                                 

In November 2021, the Board of Trustees authorized in Resolution R2021-11-03 the terms and conditions of employment for Jay Fox as UTA’s Executive Director (UTA Contract No. 21-P00127).  A First Amendment was approved by the Board on February 23, 2022, and it is the desire of the Board to now consider a Second Amendment to the agreement based on Mr. Fox’s 2022 performance.  

DISCUSSION:                                                                                                                                      

A Second Amendment to Jay Fox’s employment agreement is being proposed for final approval by the Board of Trustees.   The proposed amendment would:

•                     Accelerate the exercise date of specified option years and extend the term of employment to January 9, 2027.

•                     Adjust the effective date for potential compensation increases to be consistent with the date of pay raises for other UTA administrative employees.

•                     Authorize a 4% merit increase for the Employee’s 2022 performance year.
