CITY OF SAN BERK _RDINO - REQUEST t JR COUNCIL ACTION
STAFF REPORT
The contract with the Police Safety Employees expired on November 30, 1992. The City Team
and the San Bernardino Police Officers' Association (SBPOA) held ten (10) negotiations
sessions, before SBPOA declared impasse at the tenth negotiations session on August 9, 1994.
Both parties agreed to mediation by the State Mediation and Conciliation Service. Two (2)
mediation sessions were held, on September 19, 1994, and October 3, 1994. The mediator,
upon request of SBPOA, presented SBPOA's proposals in closed session at the November 21,
1994 Council meeting.
Attached is the Police Safety Employees' Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). The term
of the MOU is from January 1, 1995 to December 31, 1998.
The Mayor and Common Council approved an economic benefit package on December 19,
1994. Since then, City Team members have met twice with SBPOA members to resolve their
concerns on MOU language, on January 19 and March 2, 1995. Highlights of the MOU are
summarized below. The MOU also contains several language changes on non-economic items.
Health Benefits Increase City contribution to employee's health insurance, to add
$50/month over and above the Kaiser South and Mission Dental
(Denticare) rates following open enrollment in 1995; and, add
$100/month over and above these rates ($50/month more than in
1995) following open enrollment in 1996.
Retirement Benefits Increase contribution to the employees' share of the Public
(two items) Employees' Retirement System (PERS) plan, from 8% to 9%, as
of January 1, 1995.
Contract with PERS to provide the Post-Survivors' Retirement
benefit, as of January 1, 1988, based on approval from PERS and
the Mayor and Common Council.
Vacation P arity Implement vacation parity with non-safety bargaining units,
resulting in employees receiving additional vacation hours after
fewer years of service, e.g., 120 hours after five (5) years of
service vs. 120 hours after seven (7) years of service, as of
January 1, 1995.
As part of the contract, Police Safety Employees gave up 16 hours of holiday time each calendar
year, starting in 1995.
