DISCUSSION
On October 1, 2001, the Santa Ana City Council adopted Resolution No.
2001-065, providing for additional partially-paid temporary military
leave of absence for full-time officers or employees of the City called
to active military service with the Armed Forces of the United States in
connection with the then-current military crisis, and for continuation
of dependent benefits. That Resolution also provided that its terms
would expire unless extended by further action of the City Council.
The City Council has subsequently adopted resolutions extending the
termination date of Resolution No. 2001-065 each succeeding year. By
adopting the subject resolution, the City Council will extend the
termination date to June 30, 2010, and continue to assist City employees
and their families with financial hardships resulting from active duty
service in connection with the continuing current military commitment.
