The issue raised involved the small difference between :I \~,11 the "Budgeted 1935-86" amount of $14,421,256 and the "Recommended 1986-87" ~r amount of $14,416,489. Since 26 positions were recommended for non-funding, it was felt that the "Recommended 1986-87" amount should have reflected a greater decrease. Increases which were negotiated during the 1985-86 fiscal year for non-safety personnel are not included in the "Budgeted 1985-86" column. Considering the added costs related to wage and benefit increases, and the increased costs in the areas of compensation insurance and overtime, the following additions to the 1985-86 personnel costs are necessary to support the 1986-87 personnel request even though the number of positions is reduced: Non-safety raises (14% over 2 years for general employees in addition to adjustments for 1.0. Technicians and dispatch personnel) Increases in compensation insurance costs Increases in health and life insurance costs Increases in PERS costs Increases in overtime requested Increases necessary to fund step increases The cost for one month of charter-mandated increases effective in August 1985, since only 11 months are included in the 1985-86 figure Other i terns tha t affect "Recorrrnended 1986-87" amount are: Positions not funded in 1985-86: 2 P-l Positions 3 Additional Police Assistants Vacancy projection in division #213 (Patrol) for 1986-87 which is not reflected in the "Budgeted 1985-86" amount Difference between the cost of an Assi stant Chief (85-86) and a Captain (86-87) Difference in incentive pay request in Division #216 (Investigations) e'F" ON FHI ~~... $340,505 159,445 73,265 47,979 118,389 125,000 ~, ~ ~~ ~~{ 40,000 $904,583 S 90,582 82,845 65,172 11,304 5,6')0 $255,503 c THE Hm~ORABLE MAYOR Arm COON courKIL MEMORANDUr1 JUNE 2, 1966 PAGE - 2 :) These items account for $1,160,086 that affects the difference between the "Budgeted 1985-86" and "Recorrmended 1966-87" columns in the category of Personal Services.
