Tt~e star®ary for a yrtar's bass period under the incentive garbage progrsae 4-2S-7T - k-21-78 - actual hours worked by the I6 men crew for the trash pickup prae~cae 17,981 hours, actual hours paid 29,459 hours. Hours for which the trash craaws weere paid for which they did not actually work within the base year was 11,488 hours. The reason why this statistical packet was made available to Council in to put into context as to what has been transpiring within the City since May 1st when the inc:entitre garbage progrme was terminated. For some inexplicable reason work craws that formerlg on the average apparently could complete their day's work in 4 to S hours now find it necessary to work 11 hours a day or more in order to ga about their assigned tasks. The information in the packet reflects the Service Director's attitude toward this. Also, these men are represented bg AFSQ~E; a M,~rattdtne of Understanding was ratifia~ by this City setting forth wages and eking conditions. In Service Director Corrigan's 3udgment terminating the incentive getbae~ program there has not been any violation in spirit or in fact by t'l~a :Hervice Director of that agreewent. There is nothing in that agzeeaeent that gives sanction to any.e+~eployee hourly wAorker of the City being paid for hours that they have not actually worked. Service Director Coxrigan stated it is based on that p~ that we instituted the new program May 1st and intends to follow thru with the necessary sanction on ar. individual crew basis for failure to perform their work in normal working hours. Mr. Wilamosky discussed with Service 1~irector Corrigan when the residesets can expect to have their brush picked t°ep. Lengthy discussion ensued - Mr. Tdilamosky discussed the fact that brush not picked up for 4 or S weeks is somewhat unreasonable. Service Director Carrigan discussed matter in detail. City Engineer 2urawski reported: 1) on May 8th, the Mayor, Service Director, Engineering Dept. Acting Chief Inapectar, President Limpert and City Engineer Zurawski attended a deeonstration by the Hismeat Company for repair of concrete pavements. A pothole in a portlssed cement concrete pavement on Winton Park Drive was filled with a rapid setting site concrete. City Eaegineur eaplsin+ed the advantages of this repair mate~ciatl such s-s color, ease of applicatie~ce, setting time; also the cost is approxi.'ately one-third of that of epoxy concrete and one-half that of bituminous asphalt .overlay. There is also the advantage of all heather applica- tion. This. was originally tested by 4DOT in 197S and they found that they had great success with this material. - it was tested on the Fiery Road Fridge at 1271 and Warrartsville Heights. Ths idayor intends to further evaluate tree use of this material and in the next six weed the Administration is going to attempt to repair
