WHEREAS, by Resolution No.: 430,1999 the Queensbury Town Board authorized
implementation of a temporary, voluntary sick leave bank to be made available for a certain
ill employee, which bank accepted voluntary, one-time contributions of unused sick leave
from Department Managers and non-union employees from which the employee could draw
on after exhausting his own leave for the purpose of a medical emergency, and
WHEREAS, the Town Board also authorized at that time the Town Supervisor and
Town Comptroller to explore sick leave banks to be made available to future participants
under terms to be established by the Town Board, and
WHEREAS, a Sick Leave Bank Policy (Policy) has been presented to the Town
Board and the Town Board wishes to authorize the Policy in order to provide a secondary
source of sick leave for eligible employees who have not been able to accumulate a personal
sick leave reserve, and

RESOLVED, that the Town Board further authorizes and directs the Town
Supervisor and/or Town Comptroller to distribute copies of the Sick Leave Bank Policy to
all eligible employees, sign any documentation and take such other and further action as
