Major points of significance include: a two-year agreement with a reopener clause for
wages and physical fitness incentive at the end of year one; the addition of a
compensatory time provision; the opportunity for parking control officers to issue
parking tickets outside of the downtown parking management zone; clarification of paid
holiday procedures; a one-time grant of one additional week of annual leave; revisions
to health insurance coverage options, adjustments to sick leave, education course
reimbursement, kennel fee stipend, physical fitness incentive, probationary period, and
specialty team pay; inclusion of a response distance requirement and no cost -of -living
adjustment.
The Agreement has been reached within the bargaining guidelines previously
established by the City Council. The Union has recently voted to ratify the proposed
agreement and it is now ready for Council consideration. This has been reviewed with
the Council in Executive Session and is presented with the recommendation of the
Management Negotiating Committee.
