MEMORANDUM
Date: January 7, 2011
To: Mark Rohloff, City Manager
CC: Scott Greuel, Police Chief
From: John Fitzpatrick, Assistant City Manager / Director of Administrative Services
Re: Oshkosh Professional Police Officer's Association Contract for 2010 -2011
As you know, we reached a tentative agreement on November 18, 2010 with the
Oshkosh Professional Police Officer's Association (OPPA) for the contract years of
2010 and 2011. This agreement was ratified by the Oshkosh Professional Police
Officer's Association on December 13, 2010.
I believe this agreement is good for both the Oshkosh Professional Police
Officer's Association 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
Oshkosh Professional Police Officer's Association 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.

Additional Information
1. Oshkosh Police Officers Association costing is based on 78 members.
2. Health ins. costing assumes all employees participate in the health risk assessment & 2011 premiums include an estimated
8% increase.
3. State retirement rate for protective with social security employees increased 1% in 2010 and .6% in 2011.
4. An increase of $5.13 per bargaining unit member per pay period for 2010 was agreed upon in lieu of a Detective adjustment
in order to secure ratification by a majority of employees.
5. Across the board increases of 2% in 2010 & 2% in 2011 are reflected in the salary line.
6. Clothing allowance net increase is $800 per year.
7. As was the case with the Fire contract, Police have been at the higher contribution levels for health insurance since the last
bargaining cycle (2007 -2009) which is why the percentage increases reflected in this document may appear higher than
AFSCME units.
