Commissioner Kirkland moved for adoption, motion seconded by Commissioner Crutchfield. Commissioner Ferguson said there has been a lot of discussion about compensation for public safety employees, and he wants to be on record that we are working on this issue. Commissioner Kenward requested clarification on Section 4 of the resolution for public record. City Manager Cowper said Section 4 provides for the cost of living adjustment (COLA) increase for city employees. He said the recommended increase was a 2% COLA for general employees and a 3% COLA for public safety employees, whose positions are listed in this paragraph. He said this paragraph also indicates that we are doing a compensation study and funding an increase based on that compensation study for Fiscal Year 2021, but it also provides that once the results are known and if the Commission so desires, you can immediately begin to look at that study and make any adjustments you deem fit. City Manager Cowper said the compensation study process will begin in October and is expected to take three to four months with an anticipated completion in January, 2020. He said that will then enable us in the March/April timeframe to start looking at mid-biennium adjustments and we can bring back some recommendations for the Commission at that time. Commissioner Ferguson asked if this study is anticipated to be on an agenda very soon, and City Manager Cowper confirmed that he anticipates the professional services contract to be on the first meeting agenda in October. Commissioner Kenward recapped that this gives the Commission the flexibility to take what the study says and make adjustments accordingly. Commissioner Fleming said it is great that this will give the Commission the ability to make adjustments because we are going to have one of the top public safety training facilities in the world and he believes that our pay for our employees should match that. He said while he understands studies Minutes of the Board of Commissioners – September 3, 2019, continued. and it is our due diligence to make sure we are spending properly, it really concerns him that we are getting ready to be at the top tier with this facility, through the City and through Wiregrass Foundation, and we are not at the top tier in pay. He said what really struck personal with him in reading through the information provided is that we can increase the number of minority officers and the training of officers through compensation. Commissioner Dorsey asked the total price of the training facility and who is funding the cost, for the record. Police Chief Steve Parrish replied approximately $23 million and the City’s contribution is $1 million with the Wiregrass Foundation funding the remainder of the cost. Commissioner Dorsey said anytime someone saves you money they deserve a raise, and he wants to add this for the record. Mayor Saliba thanked the Commission for their questions and clarifications, and he expressed appreciation to City Manager Cowper, the Finance Department, and department heads for doing a lot of hard work. Mayor Saliba said it takes months to put together a budget of this size and he thanked everybody for coming together and working together for the betterment of our community. There being no further discussion, the resolution was unanimously adopted. Mayor Saliba introduced Resolution No. 2019-214 (recorded in Ordinance Book No._______at Page_______), entering into an agreement with the Dothan Area Chamber of Commerce to attract and promote new industry.

Commissioner Kirkland moved for adoption, motion seconded by Commissioner Dorsey. Commissioner Ferguson said he wants to verify that we received everything required in the application process from all of these agencies. City Manager Cowper said there are one or two minor items from smaller agencies and we are working with them to be sure we receive all the information that is due, but at this point, he is very comfortable with where we are in the process. There being no further discussion, the resolution was unanimously adopted. Mayor Saliba introduced Resolution No. 2019-216 (recorded in Ordinance Book No._______at Page_______), agreeing to provide funding for operating expenses to various agencies for Fiscal Years 2020 and 2021. Commissioner Kenward moved for adoption, motion seconded by Commissioner Fleming and unanimously adopted. Mayor Saliba introduced Resolution No. 2019-217 (recorded in Ordinance Book No._______at Page_______), appropriating funds to the Dothan City Schools for Fiscal Years 2020 and 2021. Commissioner Kirkland moved for adoption, motion seconded by Commissioner Crutchfield and unanimously adopted. Mayor Saliba introduced Resolution No. 2019-218 (recorded in Ordinance Book No._______at Page_______), rescinding Resolution Nos. 2003-50, 2007-262, 2008-284, and 2011-252 (Debt Service, Water Projects, Post-Employment Benefits Other than Pensions, and Storm Drainage Projects) respectively, and approving the sum of these previously funded reserves be combined in a Capital Improvement Fund to be used for the Fiscal Years 2020 and 2021 capital improvement projects. Commissioner Kirkland moved for adoption, motion seconded by Commissioner Dorsey. City Manager Cowper said this is a reflection of a little bit of a different approach to capital planning budgeting. He said you will recall the discussion held at the budget workshop about the six year capital plan and preparing ourselves for capital projects, not only in the short term but over at least a six year time period, and aligning those capital projects with the strategic planning efforts of this Commission. Historically, the Commission at the recommendation of the city manager has allocated monies towards specific projects and the finance director has then in turn invested those monies in CDs or other investments. He said with this approach we are removing those specific project based allocations, taking all of those funds and depositing them into a single capital improvements project fund, and in the end he believes this will give us more flexibility in our planning for capital projects to meet the needs of the Minutes of the Board of Commissioners – September 3, 2019, continued. citizens. City Manager Cowper confirmed for Commissioner Ferguson that individual project monies will still be tracked. He explained the ultimate benefit of this approach is that there are a lot of projects listed on the capital improvement plan going out six years, and though a project may not be funded this fiscal year or next fiscal year, it can be seen which will allow us to financially plan in a much more strategic manner. There being no further discussion, the resolution was unanimously adopted. Mayor Saliba introduced Resolution No. 2019-219 (recorded in Ordinance Book No._______at Page_______), accepting the proposal submitted by TTL, Inc., in the amount of $19,800.00, to conduct Tier 2 testing of landfill gases produced at the Dothan landfill.

Mr. Metzger said once the design is complete, the work will then be bid to a general contractor and February is the anticipated construction start date in order to have the park open for Memorial Day. He said the materials bid came in under budget, even with the addition of the bowl slide, and staff feels good about the cost so far. City Manager Cowper said at this point we have got everything we discussed and a little wiggle room as we are under budget on the cost.
