Procfamation
Whereas, in Washington State, 45% of women and 22% of men report having experienced sexual violence
in their lifetime; and
Whereas, the risk is even higher for people of color, refugees, immigrants, LGBTQ, and other marginalized
community members; one recent study shows 94% of Native American women in Seattle report they have
been sexually assaulted; and
Whereas, in King County, more than 7,300 adults and children received specialized assistance from
organizations with programming for sexual assault victims in 2018; and
Whereas, demand for services at the King County Sexual Assault Resource Centerjumped 19% last year,
reflecting the cultural shift that is taking place that has prompted many survivors who have remained silent
to now speak up and seek the help they need to heal; and
Whereas, of the 4,888 individuals served by the King County Sexual Assault Resource Center in 2018, half
were children; nationally, 1 in 5 children under 18 are sexually abused; and
Whereas, in 2016, 18% of 10th graders in Washington reported that they had been made to engage in
unwanted kissing or sexual contact; and
Whereas, negative impacts of sexual violence trauma on women, men, children, and youth include fear,
concern for safety, symptoms of post -traumatic stress disorder, injury, and missed work or school; and
Whereas, working together to educate our community about sexual violence, supporting survivors when
they come forward, speaking out against harmful attitudes and actions, and engaging in best -practice
sexual violence prevention work helps end sexual violence;
Now, therefore, I, Denis Law, Mayor of the City of Renton, do hereby proclaim April 2019 to be

An annual fee of $2,200, and $11,000 total over five years, will be required from the Parks and Trails Division
budget of the Community Services Department.
Since 1993 the City of Renton (City) has coordinated with Federal wildlife agencies to manage waterfowl at
City parks to reduce negative impacts on water quality, minimize resource damage and ensure safety from
disease for park visitors. In a cooperative effort to continue to manage wildlife, especially Canada Geese, the
US Department of Agriculture Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service — Wildlife Services Program (WS) and
the City are entering into a multi -agency agreement to address communication, maintenance and
management of surplus waterfowl.
The purpose of the 2019-2023 Interlocal Agreement for Waterfowl (Canada Goose) Management Program (IA)
is to provide joint funding for an egg addling program, lethal control, population monitoring and census,
mainly of Canada Geese, within King, Pierce and Snohomish Counties. WS will implement a program of
removal subject to the terms and conditions of a permit to be issued to them by the US Fish and Wildlife
Service.

2019-2023 INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT FOR WATERFOWL (CANADA GOOSE)
MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
WHEREAS, Chapter 39.34.040 RCW (Interlocal Cooperation Act) permits local government
units to make the most efficient use of their powers by enabling them to communicate and
cooperate with other localities on a basis of mutual advantage and thereby to provide services in
a manner pursuant to forms of government organization that will accord best with recreational,
park and natural resources and other factors influencing the needs and development of local
communities and
WHEREAS, the various agencies, cities, counties, Washington State and agencies of the Federal
Government listed in Exhibit A - Page 6 of this Agreement, desire to manage waterfowl,
especially Canada Geese; and
WHEREAS, all parties require assistance from the Wildlife Services Program of the U.S.
Department of Agriculture, to reduce negative impacts on water quality, minimize resource
damage, ensure safety from disease for park visitors, and enhance other property managed; and
WHEREAS, this program will be an ongoing resource management activity attempting to
maintain a manageable number of birds on a year-to-year basis; and
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants herein, it is mutually agreed as
follows:
SECTION I - PURPOSE
The purpose of this Agreement is to provide joint funding for an egg addling program,
lethal control, population monitoring and census; mainly of Canada Geese, within King, Pierce,
and Snohomish Counties. This program will assist each party in communicating, maintaining,
and managing public and selected and approved private site impacts of surplus waterfowl.
SECTION II - SCOPE OF PROGRAM
Wildlife Services (WS) will receive funds from each participating member for the
continuation of an egg addling program, lethal control and evaluation during spring and summer
2019-2023.
Using best management practices WS will carry out an egg addling program, seeking as
many accessible nesting areas as possible and will make every effort to minimize damage to the
surrounding environment.
AGENDA ITEM #6. c)
To request lethal control, WMC members must contact the WS District
Supervisor or Assistant District Supervisor at 360-337-2778. WS will work
with the member agency to determine if removal is warranted and if the
location is suitable for removal operations.
With the assistance of Wildlife Services, the WMC members will continue a yearly
program to increase monitoring activities that will enhance our locating and accessing nests on
public and private land, and to facilitate an expanded egg addling program,
WS will also implement a program of removal, as requested by the Waterfowl
Management Committee, subject to the terms and conditions of a permit to be issued by the U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service. This will be done on a case by case basis in situations where an over
population of Canada geese may result in an impact on human health and safety, such as potable
water contamination, bird aircraft strikes, disease transmission or other situations as determined
by WMC members.
WS will provide an annual report to the members of the WMC which will include
information regarding egg addling, the general location of nests and number of eggs addled,
number of geese removed, difficulties encountered, and other pertinent information valuable to
the WMC.
WS will conduct a standardized monthly goose population survey of selected area parks
and will annually conduct up to six goose surveys of Lake Washington by boat. As in previous
years, census counts will be expanded using staff from local agencies and participants at times
and places to be specified. Survey results will be presented annually to the WMC.
Where possible, community outreach and educational programs such as `don't feed
wildlife' and interpretive signage will be initiated to inform the public about urban Canada
Geese, the associated problems, and the efforts of this committee at addressing those problems.
SECTION III - RESPONSIBILITIES
Each party, represented in Exhibit A — Waterfowl Management Committee Participants,
and incorporated by reference herein, will share in the ongoing review of the programs carried
out by WS.
Each party agrees that if necessary, an Oversight Committee will be appointed to monitor
and report back to the general committee on a regular basis. Three members of the Committee
will make up the Oversight Committee chaired by the Seattle Parks and Recreation
representative.
SECTION IV - COMPENSATION
Each party shall contribute to the financial costs of the program. The costs are shared
between the agencies. Individual costs per agency may vary year-to-year and are based upon the
total number of agencies actively participating in the program and receiving services. Table 1
AGENDA ITEM #6. c)
shows the 2019 minimum and maximum costs for each agency.
SECTION V - TERM AND EXTENSION
The Term of this Agreement is from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2023. This
Agreement may be extended in time, scope or funding by mutual written consent from all parties
referenced herein.
SECTION VI - TERMINATION
This agreement may be unilaterally terminated by any of the parties referenced herein or
Wildlife Services upon presentation of written notice to the Oversight Committee at least 30 days
in advance of the severance date shown in Section V.
Should termination of this agreement occur without completion of the egg addling, each
party shall pay only its' pro rata share of any expenses incurred under the agreement at the date
of the termination, and each party shall receive copies of all products resulting from the addling
activities up to the time of the termination.
SECTION VII - DELIVERABLE
Using best management practices, Wildlife Services will carry out an egg addling
program, seeking as many accessible nesting areas as possible, and will make every effort to
minimize damage to the surrounding environment. Field conditions or changing conditions may
increase or decrease the number of eggs addled from previous years' totals. Eggs will be coated
with vegetable oil on dates to be determined by Wildlife Services.
Lethal control will be implemented as requested and the total numbers are established by
the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Permit. Participants will receive a report on the number of
eggs addled and geese euthanized in 2019.
SECTION VIII - FILING
As provided by RCW 39.34.040, this agreement shall be filed prior to its entry and force
with the City or County Clerks of the participating parties, the County Auditor and the Secretary
of State, and, if found to be necessary, with the State Office of Community Affairs as provided
by RCW 39.34.120.
SECTION IX - LIABILITY
Each party to this agreement shall be responsible for damage to person or property
resulting from the negligence on the part of itself, its employees, its agents or its officers. No
party assumes any responsibility to another party for the consequences of any act or omission of
any person, firm, or corporation not at party to this agreement.

MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
WHEREAS, Chapter 39.34.040 RCW (Interlocal Cooperation Act) permits local government
units to make the most efficient use of their powers by enabling them to communicate and
cooperate with other localities on a basis of mutual advantage and thereby to provide services in
a manner pursuant to forms of government organization that will accord best with recreational,
park and natural resources and other factors influencing the needs and development of local
communities and
WHEREAS, the various agencies, cities, counties, Washington State and agencies of the Federal
Government listed in Exhibit A - Page 6 of this Agreement, desire to manage waterfowl,
especially Canada Geese; and
WHEREAS, all parties require assistance from the Wildlife Services Program of the U.S.
Department of Agriculture, to reduce negative impacts on water quality, minimize resource
damage, ensure safety from disease for park visitors, and enhance other property managed; and
WHEREAS, this program will be an ongoing resource management activity attempting to
maintain a manageable number of birds on a year-to-year basis; and
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants herein, it is mutually agreed as
follows:
SECTION I - PURPOSE
The purpose of this Agreement is to provide joint funding for an egg addling program,
lethal control, population monitoring and census; mainly of Canada Geese, within King, Pierce,
and Snohomish Counties. This program will assist each party in communicating, maintaining,
and managing public and selected and approved private site impacts of surplus waterfowl.
SECTION II - SCOPE OF PROGRAM
Wildlife Services (WS) will receive funds from each participating member for the
continuation of an egg addling program, lethal control and evaluation during spring and summer
2019-2023.
Using best management practices WS will carry out an egg addling program, seeking as
many accessible nesting areas as possible and will make every effort to minimize damage to the
surrounding environment.
AGENDA ITEM #6. c)
To request lethal control, WMC members must contact the WS District
Supervisor or Assistant District Supervisor at 360-337-2778. WS will work
with the member agency to determine if removal is warranted and if the
location is suitable for removal operations.
With the assistance of Wildlife Services, the WMC members will continue a yearly
program to increase monitoring activities that will enhance our locating and accessing nests on
public and private land, and to facilitate an expanded egg addling program,
WS will also implement a program of removal, as requested by the Waterfowl
Management Committee, subject to the terms and conditions of a permit to be issued by the U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service. This will be done on a case by case basis in situations where an over
population of Canada geese may result in an impact on human health and safety, such as potable
water contamination, bird aircraft strikes, disease transmission or other situations as determined
by WMC members.
WS will provide an annual report to the members of the WMC which will include
information regarding egg addling, the general location of nests and number of eggs addled,
number of geese removed, difficulties encountered, and other pertinent information valuable to
the WMC.
WS will conduct a standardized monthly goose population survey of selected area parks
and will annually conduct up to six goose surveys of Lake Washington by boat. As in previous
years, census counts will be expanded using staff from local agencies and participants at times
and places to be specified. Survey results will be presented annually to the WMC.
Where possible, community outreach and educational programs such as `don't feed
wildlife' and interpretive signage will be initiated to inform the public about urban Canada
Geese, the associated problems, and the efforts of this committee at addressing those problems.
SECTION III - RESPONSIBILITIES
Each party, represented in Exhibit A — Waterfowl Management Committee Participants,
and incorporated by reference herein, will share in the ongoing review of the programs carried
out by WS.
Each party agrees that if necessary, an Oversight Committee will be appointed to monitor
and report back to the general committee on a regular basis. Three members of the Committee
will make up the Oversight Committee chaired by the Seattle Parks and Recreation
representative.
SECTION IV - COMPENSATION
Each party shall contribute to the financial costs of the program. The costs are shared
between the agencies. Individual costs per agency may vary year-to-year and are based upon the
total number of agencies actively participating in the program and receiving services. Table 1
AGENDA ITEM #6. c)
shows the 2019 minimum and maximum costs for each agency.
SECTION V - TERM AND EXTENSION
The Term of this Agreement is from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2023. This
Agreement may be extended in time, scope or funding by mutual written consent from all parties
referenced herein.
SECTION VI - TERMINATION
This agreement may be unilaterally terminated by any of the parties referenced herein or
Wildlife Services upon presentation of written notice to the Oversight Committee at least 30 days
in advance of the severance date shown in Section V.
Should termination of this agreement occur without completion of the egg addling, each
party shall pay only its' pro rata share of any expenses incurred under the agreement at the date
of the termination, and each party shall receive copies of all products resulting from the addling
activities up to the time of the termination.
SECTION VII - DELIVERABLE
Using best management practices, Wildlife Services will carry out an egg addling
program, seeking as many accessible nesting areas as possible, and will make every effort to
minimize damage to the surrounding environment. Field conditions or changing conditions may
increase or decrease the number of eggs addled from previous years' totals. Eggs will be coated
with vegetable oil on dates to be determined by Wildlife Services.
Lethal control will be implemented as requested and the total numbers are established by
the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Permit. Participants will receive a report on the number of
eggs addled and geese euthanized in 2019.
SECTION VIII - FILING
As provided by RCW 39.34.040, this agreement shall be filed prior to its entry and force
with the City or County Clerks of the participating parties, the County Auditor and the Secretary
of State, and, if found to be necessary, with the State Office of Community Affairs as provided
by RCW 39.34.120.
SECTION IX - LIABILITY
Each party to this agreement shall be responsible for damage to person or property
resulting from the negligence on the part of itself, its employees, its agents or its officers. No
party assumes any responsibility to another party for the consequences of any act or omission of
any person, firm, or corporation not at party to this agreement.

Renton Police Guild, Non -Commissioned, hereinafter referred to as
the Guild, governing wages, hours, and working conditions for
certain members of the Renton Police Department.
It is intended that this Agreement, achieved through the process of

The Employer recognizes the Guild as the exclusive representative
of all non-commissioned employees for the purpose of bargaining

outlined in RCW 41.56.030. The Guild represents those classes
listed in Appendix A.
1.2. Union Representation.
The Guild President, or any other members of the Guild appointed
by the President, shall be recognized by the Employer as the official
representatives of the Guild for the purpose of bargaining with the
Employer. The Guild recognizes the Employer as the duly elected

Within thirty (30 days of hire or transfer into the bargaining unit,
each employee has the choice to attend a one -hour orientation
session with a designated Guild representative during work hours.

Guild membership. The Employer and the Guild agree the
employees in positions covered under this Agreement hired on or
after its effective date shall, on the thirty-first (31st) day following
the beginning of such employment, make an election whether or

should a replacement be needed to assume the duty
of the Guild representative granted time off.

right to restrict time off under subsections 2.3.1 and
2.3.2 above if an emergency exists or when such time

2.4. Dues Deduction.
Upon written authorization by an employee and approval by the
Guild Executive Board, the Employer agrees to deduct from the
wages of each employee the sum certified as initiation dues and
assessments twice each month as Guild dues, and to forward the
sum to the Guild Secretary or Treasurer. If any employee does not
have a check coming to him/her or the check is not large enough to
satisfy the assessments, no deductions shall be made from the
employee for that calendar month. All requests to cancel dues
deductions shall be in writing to the Employer and require
notification to the Guild by the Employer. Every effort will be made
to end the deduction effective on the first payroll, but not later
than the second payroll, after the Employer's receipt of the
employee's written notice. The Guild agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless the Employer for any claims, with the exception of those
caused by the Employer's negligence, arising out of the Employer's
activities to enforce the provisions of this Article.
The employer will provide a monthly written report to the Guild
transmitted with transfer of deducted dues owed to the Guild ("the
transferred amount"). Such report shall indicate: 1) all individuals
who had dues withheld as part of the transferred amount, and the
amount withheld and transmitted on behalf of that individual; 2) a
list of all employees who did not have dues withheld as part of the
transferred amount; 3) a list of all employees commencing
employment since the preceding report; and 4) all employees in
the preceding month who requested discontinuance of payroll
deduction of dues.

most recent hire date in the bargaining unit.
a. In the event of a tie, the determining factor will
be placement on the eligibility list.
b. Leaves of Absence will not be subtracted from
seniority.
3.1.2. Personnel Reduction by Classification. Whenever it
becomes absolutely necessary through lack of
finances, lack of work, reorganization, abolishment of
position within classification, or other reasonable and
articulable purposes to reduce the number of
employees in the bargaining unit, such reductions
shall be carried out by classification in the following
order:
a. Temporary employees
b. Probationary employees
C. Regular employees in reverse order of seniority
within the classification; the one with the least
seniority being laid off first

worked in another job classification within the
bargaining unit, and has more seniority than the least
Page 11 of 77
Police Non -Commissioned Contract
AGENDA ITEM #6. d)
2019-2020
senior employee in that job classification, he/she may
exercise the right to replace (bump) that employee.
3.2. Rehires/Reinstatement.
An employee may be recalled and reinstated in order of seniority to
a classification from which they are laid off or has previously
worked for up to two (2) years from the date of layoff.
In the event a certified employee leaves the service of the
Employer due to reduction in force and within the next two (2)
years the Employer rehires said former employee into the same
classification to which he/she was assigned at the date of
reduction, such employee shall be placed at the same step in the
salary range which he/she occupied at the time of the original
reduction.
3.3. Vacancies and Promotions.

writing of his/her decision and the reasons therefore within
fifteen (15) calendar days thereafter.

Ste 3
If the grievant is not satisfied with the decision rendered,
he/she shall submit the grievance/issue in writing to the Chief
of Police within fifteen (15) calendar days. The Chief of Police
shall notify the employee(s) and the Guild Representative in
writing of his/her decision and the reasons therefore within
fifteen (15) calendar days thereafter.
Ste 4
If the grievant is not satisfied with the decision rendered,
he/she shall submit the grievance/issue in writing to the
Mayor within fifteen (15) calendar days. The Mayor shall
notify the employee(s) and the Guild Representative in writing
of his/her decision and the reasons therefore within fifteen
(15) calendar days thereafter. Consideration of the issue shall
conclude at this point.
Ste 5
If the grievance has not been settled by the Mayor, either
party may submit the matter to arbitration. In any case, the
matter must be referred to arbitration within ninety (90) days
from conclusion of the fifteen (15) day period of consideration
by the Mayor. A neutral arbitrator will be selected jointly by
both parties. If the parties cannot agree on an arbitrator, they
will request a list of arbitrators from the American Arbitration

to pick an arbitrator. The arbitrator selection process will not
exceed ten (10) days. The total cost of the proceedings shall
be borne equally by both parties. The arbitrator's award shall

AGENDA ITEM #6. d)
Police Non -Commissioned Contract

be final and binding on both parties, provided, however, that
no authority is granted to the arbitrator to modify, amend, or
delete any terms of this Agreement.
When an employee or the Guild appeals a grievance to
arbitration, such appeal shall be made in writing and shall
constitute an election of remedies and, to the extent allowed
by law, a waiver of any and all rights by the appealing
employee or the Guild to litigate or otherwise contest the
appealed matter in any court or other available forum.
17.3. Election of Remedies.
In the case of disciplinary actions that are appealable to the Civil
Service Commission, a non -probationary employee may file a
grievance under the terms of this Agreement alleging that the
disciplinary action was not for just cause. If the employee does so,
it shall constitute an election of remedies and said employee shall
be barred from pursuing the issue in any other forum including, but
not limited to, the Civil Service Commission. Likewise, if an
employee files litigation in any other legal forum, including Civil
Service, that employee may not grieve said discipline and any
grievance previously filed shall be deemed withdrawn and any
remedies previously granted shall be void.
ARTICLE 18 — PERFORMANCE OF DUTY
Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to give an employee
the right to strike, and no employee shall strike or refuse to
perform assigned duties to the best of his/her ability. It is further
agreed that no employee shall refuse to cross the picket line of any
other union during his/her scheduled work shift.

ARTICLE 21- SAVINGS CLAUSE
21.1. Savings Clause.
If any article of this Agreement or any addenda hereto should be

Agreement and Addenda shall not be affected thereby, and the
parties shall enter, within ten (10) calendar days, into collective
bargaining negotiations for the purpose of arriving at a mutually
satisfactory replacement or modification of such Article held
invalid.
21.2. Contract/Civil Service.
Any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and current
Civil Service Rules and Regulations shall be resolved as set forth
herein. It is further understood that (a) to the extent the labor
agreement does not address a matter (e.g., discipline, seniority, lay
offs, etc.) and Civil Service does, then Civil Service shall prevail; (b)
to the extent the labor agreement does address a matter (e.g.,

Page 63 of 77
AGENDA ITEM #6. d)

this agreement) for employees in the bargaining unit. Upon
receiving notice of such proposed changes(s) from the Civil Service
commission, either party may submit a written request to the
mayor (within sixty (60) calendar days after receipt of such notice)
and the result of such bargaining shall be made a part of this
Agreement.
21.3. Successor Agreement.
This Agreement and any and all amendments and modifications
hereafter entered into and executed by and between the parties
hereto shall be binding and inure to the benefit of the parties'
respective successors and assigns and any other governmental
entity succeeding to the City of Renton's obligations hereunder.
In case of any merger or consolidation by the Employer with
another governmental agency, either party shall have the right to
reopen this Agreement for negotiation of any positions affected by
the merger or consolidation.
21.4. FLSA Disputes.
The Employer shall have the right to bargain any issues arising out
of the implementation of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)
including any conflicts that may arise regarding Article 19,
Retention of Benefits. Statutory provisions for resolution of
impasses reached in collective bargaining, and contractual
provisions for resolution of grievances arising out of such FLSA
issues shall apply.

ARTICLE 15 — BILL OF RIGHTS
15.1. Just Cause Employer Rights.
The Employer retains the right to adopt rules for the operation of
the Renton Police Department and the conduct of its employees
provided that such rules do not conflict with City Ordinances, City
and State Civil Service Rules and Regulations as they exist, or any
provision of this Agreement. It is agreed that the Employer has the
right to discipline, suspend, or discharge any employees for just
cause subject to the provisions of the City Ordinances, City and

this Agreement.
15.2. Bill of Rights.
In an effort to ensure that investigations, as designated by the
Chief of Police of the Renton Police Department, are conducted in a
manner which is conducive to good order and discipline, the Non -
Commissioned Employees of the Renton Police Guild shall be
entitled to the protection of what shall hereafter be termed as the
"Police Non -Commissioned Employees' Bill of Rights".
15.2.1. The City and the Guild agree that all employees should
work in an environment that fosters mutual respect
and professionalism. The parties agree that
inappropriate behavior in the workplace does not
promote the City's business, employee well-being, or
productivity. All employees are responsible for
Page 52 of 82
AGENDA ITEM #6. d)
Police Non -Commissioned Contract
contributing to such an environment and are expected
to treat others with courtesy and respect.
Inappropriate workplace behavior by employees,
supervisors, and/or managers will not be tolerated. If
an employee and/or the employee's Guild
representative believes the employee has been
subjected to inappropriate workplace behavior, the
employee and/or the employee's representative is
encouraged to report this behavior to the employee's
supervisor, a manager in the employee's chain of
command, and/or the Human Resources Office. The
City will follow the investigatory procedures outlined
in City Policy and Procedure 340-02 and take
appropriate action as necessary. The employee
and/or Guild representative will be notified upon
conclusion.
This section is

grievance
procedure
in Article 18,
but

may be investigated by another agency outside the
City of Renton.

surveillance by any employee of the Renton Police
Department without authorization of the Chief of

investigation may have legal counsel or a Guild
representative present during all interviews. The
interviewer must provide at least three business days

request, a copy of the entire file shall be provided to

manner as possible. To protect the employee's right
to privacy, the Medical Release Form agreed upon by
the Employer and the Guild shall be signed by the
employee prior to the evaluation (see Appendix D).

Employees will be unimpeded and free from unreasonable restraint
or interference and free from coercion, discrimination, or reprisal
in lawfully seeking adjudication of their grievance.
17.1. Definitions.
17.1.1. Grievance: Any issue relating to interpretation,
application, or enforcement of any provision
contained in this Agreement.
17.1.2. Issue: Any dispute, complaint, problem, or question
arising with respect to working conditions or
employer -employee relations of any nature or kind
whatsoever.
17.1.3. Guild Representative: A Guild member designated by

17.2. Grievance Procedure.
The steps set forth herein shall be followed unless the Chief of
Police and the Grievant, Guild, or individual raising the issue agree
in any particular case that the procedural steps and/or time limits
should be modified. Any agreement to modify the procedural steps
and/or time limits shall be in writing. In the event that no provision
Page 63 of 82
AGENDA ITEM #6. d)
Police Non -Commissioned Contract
F7.tinS7.tiTjgiji3pme
is made to modify any procedural steps and/or time limits, and
either of the parties violates them, the grievance/issue shall be
considered settled in favor of the party that is not in default at the
time. If any specified participant in the steps below is absent and
thus unable to timely participate, such step(s) may be completed
by the participant's designee.
Ste 1
The employees and/or Guild Representative shall submit the
grievance/issue in writing to the Division
Commander/Manager within twenty (20) calendar days from
the date that the grievant knew or reasonably should have
known of the action precipitating the grievance/issue. The
Division Commander/Manager shall notify the Employee(s)
and the Guild Representative in writing of his/her decision
and the reasons therefore within fifteen (15) calendar days
thereafter.
Ste 2
If the grievant is not satisfied with the decision rendered,
he/she shall submit the grievance/issue in writing to the
Deputy Chief within fifteen (15) calendar days. If the grievance
is initiated by the Guild, it shall be initiated at Step (2) of the
grievance process within fifteen (15) calendar days from the
date the Guild knew or reasonably should have known of the
action precipitating the grievance/issue. The Deputy Chief
shall notify the employee(s) and the Guild Representative in
writing of his/her decision and the reasons therefore within
fifteen (15) calendar days thereafter.
Page 64 of 82
AGENDA ITEM #6. d)
Police Non -Commissioned Contract
Ste 3
If the grievant is not satisfied with the decision rendered,
he/she shall submit the grievance/issue in writing to the Chief
of Police within fifteen (15) calendar days. The Chief of Police
shall notify the employee(s) and the Guild Representative in
writing of his/her decision and the reasons therefore within
fifteen (15) calendar days thereafter.
Ste 4
If the grievant is not satisfied with the decision rendered,
he/she shall submit the grievance/issue in writing to the
Mayor within fifteen (15) calendar days. The Mayor shall
notify the employee(s) and the Guild Representative in writing
of his/her decision and the reasons therefore within fifteen
(15) calendar days thereafter. Consideration of the issue shall
conclude at this point.
Ste 5
If the grievance has not been settled by the Mayor, either
party may submit the matter to arbitration. In any case, the
matter must be referred to arbitration within ninety (90) days
from conclusion of the fifteen (15) day period of consideration
by the Mayor. A neutral arbitrator will be selected jointly by
both parties. If the parties cannot agree on an arbitrator, they
will request a list of arbitrators from the American Arbitration
Association (AAA) and alternately strike names, if necessary,
to pick an arbitrator. The arbitrator selection process will not
exceed ten (10) days. The total cost of the proceedings shall
be borne equally by both parties. The arbitrator's award shall
Page 65 of 82
AGENDA ITEM #6. d)
Police Non -Commissioned Contract
be final and binding on both parties, provided, however, that
no authority is granted to the arbitrator to modify, amend, or
delete any terms of this Agreement.
When an employee or the Guild appeals a grievance to
arbitration, such appeal shall be made in writing and shall
constitute an election of remedies and, to the extent allowed
by law, a waiver of any and all rights by the appealing
employee or the Guild to litigate or otherwise contest the
appealed matter in any court or other available forum.
17.3. Election of Remedies.
In the case of disciplinary actions that are appealable to the Civil
Service Commission, a non -probationary employee may file a
grievance under the terms of this Agreement alleging that the
disciplinary action was not for just cause. If the employee does so,
it shall constitute an election of remedies and said employee shall
be barred from pursuing the issue in any other forum including, but
not limited to, the Civil Service Commission. Likewise, if an
employee files litigation in any other legal forum, including Civil
Service, that employee may not grieve said discipline and any
grievance previously filed shall be deemed withdrawn and any
remedies previously granted shall be void.
ARTICLE 18 — PERFORMANCE OF DUTY
Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to give an employee
the right to strike, and no employee shall strike or refuse to
perform assigned duties to the best of his/her ability. It is further
agreed that no employee shall refuse to cross the picket line of any
other union during his/her scheduled work shift.

SUBJECT/TITLE: Project Acceptance and Approval of Final Pay Estimate for Kennydale
Reservoir Site Access Utilities CAG-18-050 with Laser Underground
and Earthworks, Inc.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Council Concur
DEPARTMENT: Utility Systems Division
STAFF CONTACT: Eric Ott, Water Utility Engineer
EXT.: 7313
The original contract amount was $343,442.00 and the final amount is $346,946.72, an increase of $3,504.72
due to the use of more import trench backfill materials and more asphalt for roadway restoration than
anticipated. The contract was fully funded through the Water Utility Capital Improvement Program budget for
the Kennydale Reservoir Project (425.455606). There is sufficient funding in the budget to cover the project
costs.
The Kennydale Reservoir Site Access Utilities project construction contract CAG-18-050 was awarded to Laser
Underground and Earthworks, Inc. on October 8, 2018. The contractor began construction on December 13,
2018 and completed construction on January 18, 2019.
The project consisted of the installation of 760 feet of 12-inch and 16-inch water transmission mains and 200
feet of 12-inch storm drainage pipe within the access road to the new reservoir and in North 30th Street.
At completion of the project, one change order in the amount of $3,504.72 was issued for the reconciliation of
