Assistant
Council Auditor Janice Billy explained that the bill increases the annual
contract for school resource officers from $3.6 to $3.9 million to increase
from 51 to 57 officers. The City is
paying 1/3 of the cost for the new officers because they work regular duty
for the JSO during the summer months when school is not in session. JSO Assistant Chief Dave Kaufman stated
that during the summer months the officers are assigned to patrol duty. RECOMMEND APPROVAL 7-0 |

R:Amend/Approve Council
Member Joost offered three additional amendments to the bill as approved by
the Rules Committee to state clearly that this is the last extension, that
the developer is to make an annual progress report to the Finance Committee,
and that the Council shall have the right to cancel the contract with 30
day’s notice if it determines that adequate progress is not being made. The committee discussed the determination
of “adequate progress” and whether the City could impose these conditions on
the contract unilaterally without the developer’s consent. Legal counsel informed the committee that
the developer and the City would have to enter into a revised agreement if
this bill is approved in any form, and the developer would have the right to
refuse the conditions and discontinue the project if the City’s new
conditions are not acceptable. AMEND to 1.
(R) Attach revised contract amendment which: a) Clarifies that road improvements are not an
interchange. b) Extends project completion date to
12/31/11. 2.
(R) Deletes scope of performance from tech. amends 3.
(F) Makes 12/31/11 the final extension given. 4.

Council
Member Yarborough inquired about how this bill is affected by the Ordinance
Code prohibition against introducing changes to City pension plans if the
plan in question is less than 90% actuarially funded. CFO Mickey Miller stated that the latest
full actuarial study of the City’s pension plans showed the General
Employee’s Pension at 79% funded in September 2007 and that percentage is
surely lower today because of the steep decline in the stock markets. Deputy General Counsel Steve Rohan stated
that the bill was introduced because it was a condition of a collective
bargaining agreement mutually agreed to by the City and the corrections
officers’ union 3 years ago – this is the final installment of a 3-phase
introduction of pension changes.
Council Member Yarborough asked about how binding the former contract
is when it has itself expired as of September 30, 2008. Council Member Joost requested the
administration to calculate the financial impact of this pension amendment
and to brief the Council on the overall state of all the pensions given the
tremendous stock market losses of recent months. Mickey Miller stated that he and Chairman
Corrigan are planning a special 1 hour meeting with the Finance Committee
specifically to discuss pension funding issues. DEFER |
