Merit Appeals Board January 16, 2025 <br />CHR. CABANAS: Mm-hmm. <br />MR. HONG: So, I completely agree with you. <br />MS. TOKIHIRO: With regard to the earnings, if Mr. Turner is returned to the position as if the <br />action was never taken, that will that process and updating our system, our Human Resources <br />system, will correct any payroll discrepancies. So, it will happen at the same time. It does not <br />need to be bifurcated. <br />The other thing that will come into account is any wages that Mr. Turner was paid through a <br />special check run that are not accounted for on a paystub. So, that will correct, if there's any <br />earnings difference from what he would have been paid in his salary versus what he earned on <br />TA for this entire period. <br />So, again, it wasn't —when we received the Order, I needed to see what the Order was from the <br />Board, in order to be able to effectuate the change when we were working with the department <br />with the Order that we received, to try and implement this that was when we realized that there <br />were some issues and then I had concerns because I didn't feel the Order was making him whole <br />and I was concerned that it was not what the Board intended and also not in Mr. Turner's best <br />interest, possibly —so that's why I wanted to raise all of the issues with you, to get that <br />clarification. So, I apologize for any delay. <br />MS. MATHEWS: Thank you for that. Could you tell me what you need that motion to look like <br />and then we'll see if Mr. Hong agrees with it, and then we will make. How does that sound? <br />MS. TOKIHIRO: So, the wording would be to "return" Mr. Turner to the "Construction <br />Equipment Repair Supervisor II" position as if my action had never been taken —as if I had <br />never voided his appointment. <br />CHR. CABANAS: I think we need to be a little bit more clear on that because "return <br />Mr. Turner to the Construction Equipment Repair Supervisor 11 position" and list the date <br />"...return him to March 16'', 2024, and, accordingly, he now will complete his new probationary <br />period." Yes? <br />MS. MATHEWS: Wait, I'm not sure you meant that. You don't want him to have a new <br />probationary period? <br />CHR. CABANAS: No, no, no —he will have completed his new probationary period. <br />MS. MATHEWS: Right. So, I think we need to state that. <br />CHR. CABANAS: Yes. Okay. Maybe I twisted the words (inaudible). <br />MS. MATHEWS: Yeah, I think <br />Page 14 <br />
