MISCELLANEOUS SALARY PLANS CITY ATTY AMENDING THE CLASSIFICATION AND RECOMMENDED ACTION: City Council adopt Resolution No. 7/87 . ITEM EXPLANATION: The Personnel Department worked in concurrence with the Police Department to prepare a new classification. The new classifi- cation of Police Officer Recruit will distinguish employees in a non-sworn training status from those who are sworn and per- forming active Police Officer duties. Recruits will become sworn Police Officers upon successful completion of the police academy. The recommended salary for Police Officer Recruit is $589.81 - $702.01, R27, which is approximately 16% below the salary of a Police Officer. One advantage of this classification modification is that the city's exposure to injury during training periods will be reduced for Police Officer Recruit. Police Officer Recruit, as a miscellaneous employee, will not incur the expense of providing public safety industrial disability coverage during training. Another advantage is a realization of salary savings. Police Officer Recruit will be on a lower salary range than that for Police Officer. Police Officer Recruit has the additional advantage of being covered by the less expensive miscellaneous retirement plan. City representatives have consulted with representatives of the Carlsbad Police Officers' Association on three separate occasions, November 19, 29 and December 3, 1982 regarding this item. The city has agreed to hire personnel from the present eligibility list, September 8, 1982, as Police Officers as this practice would be consistent with the recruiting advertising. Future Police Officer vacancies may be filled with recruits but a separate testing for the recruit position will be conducted. FISCAL IMPACT: Savings in salary and retirement costs of $837 per Police Officer Recruit. EXHIBITS: Resolution No. .7/6z adding the classification of Police Officer Recruit with e appropriate salary range. PATRICK J. THISTLE DANIEL R. KRINSKY CHRISTOPHER L. ASHCRb.FT EDWARD C. DILLON A.

CALIFORNIA 9 2243 619-353-1469 Dear Mr. Aleshire: As you are aware, an impasse currently exists rela- tive to negotiations between the Carlsbad Police Officers Association and the City regarding the City's proposed new classi.fication of "Police Officer Recruit". This office sent a letter to the City on December 28, 1982, requesting to invoke the Impasse Resolution Procedure contained in .the City's Employer-Employee Relations Resolution prior to this matter being submitted to the Carlsbad City Council. We, on behalf of the Association, are again for- mally requesting that you conduct a meeting with the parties pilrsuant to the City's Employer-Employee Relations Resolution prior to submitting this matter to the City Counci.1. Furthermore, please consider this letter as a fox- mal request on behalf of the Association that we utilize the services of a state mediator in an effort to resolve the impasse. A mediator from the California State Conciliation Service with offices in San Diego is available without cost to the parties. appear substantial, we believe the intervention of a mediator at this initial stage of impasse could potentially be a worthwhile undertaking. As you are aware, a mediator would not engage in formulating written opinions but would function to coinmunicate between the parties orally in an effort to find some common ground as a basis for an agreement on the issue of the proposed new classification. c From our perspective, although our differences .L Mr. Frank Aleshire January 4, 1983 Page -2-. Attached is a copy of the Association's position on the proposed "Police Officer Recruit" classification. Yours very truly, THISTLE 6( KRINSKY By : a9 i PATRICK J ./ THISTLE PJT/dsb Enclosure POSITION OF THE CARLSBAD POLICE OFFICERS' ASSOCIATION ON THE PROPOSED NEW CLASSIFICATION OF "POLICE OFFICER RECRUIT" 1) That the City delays implementation of the new classification until a new eligibility "list" is established. Rationale: The potential candidates on the current list were recruited under the old classification of Police Officer. -- 2) That the C.P.O.A. shall be the exclusive bargaining representative of the new classification. Rationale: The C.P.O.A. currently represents the employees attending the academy. 3) That the only difference between the classification of Police gfficer Recruit and current Police Officer is that for the period during the academy, said new employees will not be sworn peace officers. Rationale: The City's concern is the cost of a sworn police officer who is permanently injured during the academy. Why should these employees also have to take an approximate 25% cut in pay, be on probation 4 months longer and have to wait an additional 4 months to get subsequent pay raises or take a vacation. 4) That in return for the above concessions, the Association wants to "trade-off" for the following safety items for the police officers and in turn for the citizens of Carlsbad. (a) That as soon as possible, rectify the problem of the "dead spots" with the Police Department radios by setting up a repeater or relayer in the south area of the city (La Costa) so that all calls in/out of La Costa can be heard by both the police department dispatcher and the officer in that area, (b) That the City install in every police car "stream lights" with a recharger. (c) That the City purchase an additional recharger and an adequate supply of batteries for the portable radios, (d) That the City install new "lap type" safety belts in all police units, (e) That the City upgrade the first aid kits in a11 squad cars. Rationale: So that the police officers and citizens of Carlsbad will be insured of prompt responses to calls and that the police officers will have adequate-and proper working equip- ment to ensure the safety of the citizens. The above-items were discussed with the City during our Meet and Confer Sessions on 11/19/82, 11/29/82 and 12/3/82. c ,'L .\ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 a 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 1E 1s 2c 21 22 2: 24 2: 2e 27 2€ * RESOLUTION NO. 7109 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CARLSBAD, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING THE CLASSIFICATION AND SALARY PLAN OF THE CITY TO INCLUDE THE CLASSI- FICATION OF POLICE OFFICER RECRUIT.
