FROM: Timothy C. Hansley, City Manager / ~
SUBJECT: Amendment to Ordinance No. 66-88
DATE: October 13, 1988
Summary & Action Recommended
Attached please find Ordinance No. 98-88 amending Ordinance No. 66-88
regarding certain items of compensation relative to the Chief of Police.
The purpose of the attached legislation is to amend Section 1.D. (Annual
Uniform, Clothing, and Equipment Allowance) of Ordinance No. 66-88 to
authorize the City to provide an initial issue consisting of one complete
set of all uniform parts and equipment required to function as the Chief
of Police in addition to an annual allowance for the maintenance of said
issue as well as for the purchase of other clothing items necessary to
maintain a professional appearance and to function as the Chief of
Police. I hereby recommend passage of Ordinance 98-88, and further
recommend that it be adopted as emergency legislation for the reason that
certain expenditures, as a result of the amended legislation, need to be
approved as soon as possible.
Issue
-
The reason this amendment is being proposed is that Section 1.D. of the
original legislation (Ordinance No. 66-88) did not specify any obligation
on the part of the City to provide an initial issue of uniform parts and
equipment in order to function as the Chief of Police. I believe that
the City should be obligated to provide an initial issue consisting of
one complete set of all uniform parts and equipment in addition to an
annual allowance to maintain said issue as well as for the purchase of
other clothing items necessary to maintain a professional appearance and
to function as the Chief of Police. Since the City provides for an
initial issue consisting of multiple sets of uniform and clothing items
for the other uniformed and non-uniformed Officers, I believe the City
should provide one complete set of required uniform and equipment parts
for the Chief of Police. Likewise, since the City provides an annual
uniform equipment and clothing allowance to the other uniformed and
non-uniformed Officers, I believe the City should also provide an annual
allowance for the Chief of Police.
Conclusion
As stated earlier, I recommend passage of Ordinance No. 98-88, and
further recommend that it be adopted as emergency legislation for the
reason that certain expenditures, as a result of the amended legislation,
need to be approved as soon as possible.
