The temporary-employee amendment would pay temporary workers the rate established in the applicable collective bargaining contract when they fill covered positions because of illness, absence, vacancies, or other needs. The broader pay-schedule amendment was advanced but was not yet final. The Council also approved relocating two jointly owned utility poles on High Street, referred a signs-and-advertising zoning change for a joint public hearing, and sent questions about donations to the Gardner Community Action Team to the Law Department.
