We currently have, a contract with Live Nation for law. enforcement services for the Gorge Amphitheatre. Over the past 10 years,, have been constantly understaffed rid riot being able to fill shifts during festival weekends. This scheduling issue is more common than not. 'hid hfle I understand the reason for the current policy, I believe there is justification for a temporary u on, es i rt . ry em pecially during the concert season. There is a. p i reason to fill all the shifts at these festivals. The mai n reason is safety of the pubic and Deputies that work it. With shifts going unfilled, it increases the risk to both the public and staff alike. I am also a certified peace officer, even as an els . cted officiaL Tracy Williams I am aware that exempt employees cannot be paid overtime by general fund Aft'histrative Assistant monies. Live Nation is a third -party vendor that pays rates outside of the general Office 509-764-2011 fund. I have previous posed this question to MRSC and was advised that it was ext. 2014 Call 509-237-2278 legally permissible for elec- ted officials to work at an overme tirate if by a third- tmil'la.ms@grantoDuntyvia.gov party vendor. Live Nation has stated they were alright with the elected Sheriff working the venue at an overtime rate,., ----------- P.O.
