ISSUE/BACKGROUND:
body
Prior to the transition, the Board authorized several work policies that provided guidelines and procedures for agency-wide operations. The Department of Human Capital has continued to revise such policies to ensure that they are consistent with best practices and comply with legal requirements. Minor changes to the Nepotism and Advertising policies came from this ongoing effort.

DISCUSSION:
In August of 2021, the Board of Commissioners passed HC49 Creation of Policy, which describes the procedures for adopting and revising work policies. Section 2.0 of that policy mandates a uniform format for all policies and any policy revision that modifies the policy's intent or applicability must be approved by the Board under Section 2.3.2. The following changes are suggested:
1. HC8 RTA Nepotism Policy:
Edit Page 1, paragraph 3 - The word “cousins” was deleted from the text. After further research, it was determined that removing cousins from the list of family relatives is consistent with the State.
2. COM2 RTA Advertising Content Policy:
There are no suggested changes to this policy. The policy will be ratified after the board acts.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Adoption of the RTA agency policies has no direct impact on RTA’s expenditures or revenues.
NEXT STEPS:
Upon the Board of Commissioners’ approval, staff will work to provide policies for all RTA staff to view and follow.
