The parties agreed to eliminate the following bonuses and instead rolled them into each level of the wage schedule prior to the administration of the general increase: LEADS Certification Pay Weekend Pay Firearms Proficiency Benefit (this was previously Article 28 which is now deleted) To attract and retain personnel, the parties agreed to permit lateral hire credit. This accelerated step placement based on prior certifiable experience/skills/qualifications is at the exclusive discretion of the Employer. Any lateral hire shall progress through the wage schedule based on the employee's anniversary date with the City and the later hire credit shall not affect the calculation of seniority/service credit for promotional examinations.

The new longevity schedule became Section I and pays as follows: $500 5 years $1,000 10 years $1,500 15 years $2,000 20 years $2,500 25 years In Section 4, Later Transfers, longevity pay will be computed based on their accepted years of prior service rather than `their respective."

However, the parties deleted the employee's birthday and one personal day from the list of holidays and moved it to a separate "personal day" subsection. Article 12, Vacations In Section 5, the parties agreed to add the following language: "for purpose of preference or priority in the selection or scheduling of vacation, the date of hire by the City shall be used for seniority. Lateral transfers with prior years of service shall not be advanced thereby but rather limited to their respective date of hire by the City for purpose of seniority." Additionally, the parties added language, mirroring the clarification for that only "accepted" years of lateral credit are credited on the schedule. Article 13, Probationary Period The parties agreed to create a Section 3 for promotions which states that the promotional probationary period is six (6) months. If a demotion occurs during the probationary period, the Employer shall be required to set forth the basis for its decision. Any removal is subject to review through the grievance procedure. Article 14, Health/Ancillary Insurance The parties agreed to add language that the Employer shall determine the costs, terms and conditions, and benefit levels of all plan offerings and any alternative programs, which may be subject to change, provided that such changes are similar from year to year. 3 4887-1988-7e13, v.2
