Public Safety Managers Unit Employees
The City and Public Safety Managers have discussed and agreed that the current
Conlpensation Plan with effective dates January 1, 2002 to Decelnber 31, 2004 (CP) for the
enlployees in the Public Safety Managers Unit (PSM), which was previously extended through
June 30, 2006, should be extended by 30 months through Decelnber 31, 2008 as set forth below:
1. "Me Too" Compensation and Benefits
During this CP extension, the City will continue to provide wage increases to Fire
Service Public Safety Managers and Police Service Public Safety Managers according to the
Salne "me too" practice as it previously has under the current CP (See CP, Section 2.1). The
City also will continue during the tenl1 of the CP extension its current practices of providing
those benefits previously provided to Fire Service Public Safety Managers as provided for
elnployees represented by IAFF and providing those benefits as previously provided to Police
Service Public Safety Managers as provided for elnployees represented by the Police
Association.
2. RHS
Enlployees in this unit shall continue to be eligible to participate in the Retirement Health
Savings Plan (RRS) subject to the tenns and conditions of the City's contract with the provider.
The RRS plan which becanle effective July 1, 2005, is designed to help employees set aside
Inoney/payouts tax-free while employed to pay for unreilnbursed health expenses (insurance
prelnilllns, deductibles, out-of-pocket costs, etc.) incurred after retirement.
3. Re-Openers
FrOln January 1, 2007 through June 30, 2007, both the City and PSM will have the right
to re-open for discussion one subject that is included, specifically discussed, and governed by the
current CP.
Should either the City or PSMwish to re-open any subject covered by the current CP
contract extension, it Inust notify the other party no sooner than August 1, 2007 and no later than
October 1, 2007, except that a party that receives notice that the other party wishes to re-open a
section of the CP shall have 30 calendar days to respond that it also wishes to re-open a section
of the CP. Thus, for example, if the City received notice from PSM on August 1, 2007 that PSM
wished to re-open a section of the CP, the City would have until August 31, 2007 to notify PSM
that the City also wanted to re-open a section of the CP. Any notice that a party wishes to re-

Ineet and confer in good faith. The parties shall not be required to utilize or exhaust any
iInpasse, ilnpasse resolution, or arbitration procedure that, in the absence of this paragraph, they
otherwise would be required to exhaust or utilize under any City policy, rule or practice,
agreenlent, or state or federal law .
This Extension to the COlnpensation Plan shall not affect the parties' previously held
rights and obligations as specifically set forth in this Extension.
