"COMPENSATION POLICY RE TAX IMPACT ADJUSTMENTS
Mr. Puckett reported contacting Mr. Ronald Graichen, tax consultant, to
discuss Mr. Graichen's findings regarding the treatment of compensation
bonus monies. Mr. Puckett determined the bonus payments put an
additional tax burden on the employee and recommended the District adopt
a practice of setting the bonus amount and then "grossing up" the
payments by 13.2% of the base amount to make the employee whole as if
the bonus payments had been treated as reportable earnings on their W -2.
• Further, Mr. Puckett asked the Board to determine if such policy would be
made retroactive to the date of the bonus payments to Ms. Revak and Ms.
Schmeisser, January 1, 2000.
Director Ferryman motioned to approve a practice of determining a bonus
amount and then "grossing up" that amount by 13.2 percent and making
the payments to Ms. Revak and Ms. Schmeisser retroactive to January 1,
2000. Director Worthington seconded. Motion carried 5 -0."
