To: Mark Rohloff, City Manager

From: John Fitzpatrick, Assistant City Manager /
Director of Administrative Services
Re: Fire Department Chief Officers Contract for 2010 -2011
As you know, we reached a tentative agreement on July 12, 2010 with the Fire
Department Chief Officers for the contract years of 2010 and 2011. This
agreement was ratified by the Fire Department Chief Officers on July 19, 2010.
I believe this agreement is good for both the Fire Department Chief Officers and
the City as it:
1) Restores the integrity of percentage contribution by increasing the flat
dollar caps to better define an employee's contribution to health.
2) Provides a modest wage increase dependent upon insurance changes.
3) Provides opportunity for voluntary settlements with all other represented
groups.
Included in this packet is the conceptual tentative agreement ratified by the Fire
Department Chief Officers and a financial statement which details all existing
costs and the costs associated with the agreement. Please let me know if you or
any of the Council Members have any questions and thank you for your support
and assistance with this process.
