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.
