CAO RECOMMENDATION: Adopt resolution approving the memorandum of Agreement BACKGROUND: Discussions with employee representatives of the newly formed association commenced in May of this year to prepare a memorandum of agreement for the police managerial staff officers. The attached agreement reflects the mutual and cordial resolution of items of concern to both the City and the police mid-managers. This association is the exclusive representative for all Police Captains, Police Lieutenants, and Police Sergeants. These total thirteen positions. Previously these positions were represented by the Police Officers Association which remains the representative for all sworn non-supervisory police officers, dispatchers and technical personnel. In consideration of the staff officers supervisory and managerial responsibilities, the differences between exempt and non-exempt compensation schedules, and in accordance with the common practice in both private and public sectors to allow a separate association for supervisory personnel the new unit requested by the staff officers was approved by the City Administrative Officer. This group is the second mid-management association recognized by the City, and will soon be followed by a similar group representing the Fire Battalion Chiefs. As has been the case with the general mid-management group, neither the City nor the Association used outside negotiators. The focus of the negotiations was to establish a compensation package which was consistent with both internal and external comparisons and which reflected the organizational values of the City while recognizing the managerial roles performed by the staff officers. Of initial concern and necessity was the development of an exempt salary schedule for these positions to adequately provide a minimum differential between the various ranks and functional responsibilities. Equally important in the establishment of the actual proposed salary ranges is for the ranges to reflect that these positions are no longer eligible for additional pays such as educational incentives, speciality pays, line-up pay, overtime pay and minimum call back allowances. During 1986 we began the establishment of the police exempt managerial classifications but chose to defer a major compensation schedule change until the next negotiations session. The 1986 reorganization did result in temporary salary ccmpaction between sworn ranks which has been addressed in this agreement and the ranges also reflect the reduction of the plethora of additional pays in favor of one exempt pay range common for managerial positions.
