Salary. Commencing with the pay period which includes July 1, 1978 the new base salary of current members established pursuant to "Amendment 2-77" shall be increased by six percent (6%). A member as of July l, 1978, who thereafter left the service of the City through a service or disability retirement, shall receive said six percent (6%) increase to and including the effective date of said retirement. Exhibit "B" entitled "Salary Ranges Effective July 1, 1978 for Unit 6," attached hereto and incorporated herein, sets forth the ranges and bi-weekly salaries which reflects said increases, but if there is a variance between Exhibit ."B" and the "City of South San Francisco Master Salary Schedule Fire Bi-Weekly Table for 1978-79," then the latter shall prevail. 3.

Under no circumstances shall more than two members per shift be on vacation at the same time." 4. Holidays.

Retirement and Salary Relationship - Total Compensation. Members of Unit 6 desire to obtain the substantial benefits'of the 2% Age 50 Public Safety Retirement Formula by having City amend the PERS agency contract to so provide. City does not desire to so amend because (1) City . now provides the ½ Age 55 Public Safety Retirement formula which includes members of Unit 6, Fire Department personnel not presently members of said unit and future public safety Fire Department personnel, all at an agency contribution rate City is presently willing to pay when considered in relation to cost of salaries and other benefits which constitute total compensation, and (2) in accordance with applicable retirement laws, such amendment will cause City to incur an-increase in the agency contribution rate for all public safety personnel (Fire and Police), which increase in cost of total compensation (including but not limited to salaries, retire- ment and other benefits) City is-unwilling to incur. Members of Unit 6, for the purpose of establishing a reasonable City cost for said total compensation and, therefore, to induce City to so amend the PERS contract (1) propose and agree, pursuant to Governmeht Code Section 3500, et. seq., to establish a New Base Salary and furnish the assurances described below which City may require as a condition precedent to the PERS contract amendment, and (2) make the representations described below as the basis for a condition precedent which City may ~require prior to the PERS contract amendment. 2.1 New Base Salary. 2.1.1 Establishment of New Base Salary. In 1977-78 a New Base Salary for Firemen represented by Unit 6 is hereby established, same to be effective on November ll, 1977. Said New Base Salary shall be computed as follows: (1) Add to each said firemen's 1976-77 bi-weekly salary range 6.5% thereof, which is the annual percentage change in cost of living as reflected in the Bay Area Cost of Living Index for the preceding completed annual index'period (April, 1976 - April, 1977), and (2) then deduct from that total 7.44% thereof, said percentage being the difference between the City's total compensation cost for the ½ @ Age 55 Retirement Formula and the 2% @ Age 50 Retirement Formula for public safety members (Police and Fire). 2.1.2 Significance and Use of New Base Salary -'Survival of Provision. This provision states the significance and use of the New Base-Salary, also referred to as Base Salary, established pursuant to paragraph 2.1.1 of this Memorandum of Understanding for future related actions. This provision shall survive the termof this Memorandum of Understanding, which term is set forth in paragraph 1, and shall run concurrently with the period for which the 2% @ Age 50 Public Safety Retirement Benefits are applicable to eligible firemen in accordance with PERS rules and regulations, including those firemen appointed after the effective date of this Memorandum of Understanding. Each of the following sub-paragraphs may be read in conjunction with one or more of the other sub-paragraphs and with this -2- Memorandum of Understanding to interpret this provision. (a) Base Salary for fiscal year 1977-78 shall be the salary established pursuant to paragraph 2.1.1 of this Memorandum of Understanding and changes therein in subsequent years or other times by Memorandum of Understanding or otherwise shall be designated "Amended Base Salary." (b) Changes in the Base Salary or Amended Base Salary, which- ever is applicable, shall not be based on the fact the deduction set forth~ in paragraph 2.1.1(2) of this Memorandum of Understanding was made to compute same or based on the amount of said deduction. City may refuse to consider the fact of said deduction or the amount thereof in future negotia- tions as a basis for increasing the Base Salary or Amended Base Salary, and said refusal shall not be deemed a refusal to meet and confer in good faith or otherwise violative of the Meyers-Milias-Brown Act (Government Code Section 3500, et seq.). . (c) The Base Salary or Amended Base Salary, whichever .is applicable, results in a comparison difference between said salary and the salaries of other departments as well as the salaries of firemen in com- parable agencies. If said domparison difference equals or is less than 7.44%, it shall not serve as the sole basis for negotiations related to salary benefits or other terms and conditions of employment or increases or adjustments to equal or approximate salaries, benefits or other terms and conditions of employment for other City departments or comparable agencies, or to otherwise increase said salaries. If the comparison ~ifference equals or is less than 7.44%, City may refuse to consider same as a basis for increasing the Base Salary or Amended Base Salary and said refusal shall not be deemed a refusal to meet and confer in good faith or otherwise violative of the Meyers-Milias-Brown Act (Government Code Section 3500 et seq.). (d) If an increase by reason of cost of living or otherv~ise is authorized by an approved Memorandum of Understanding or otherwise, said increase in an amount or'percentage shall be applied to the Base Salary or Amended Base Salary, whichever is then in effect. (e) If a general department decrease or City-wide decrease in salaries is authorized by an approved Memorandum of Understanding or otherwise, the amount of decrease or adjustment or percentage thereof shall be applied to the Base Salary or Amended Base Salary, whichever is then in effect. 2.1.3 Assurances by Firemen Not Members of Unit 1 or 6.
