City Commission Memorandum
19-246
December 11, 2019
TO: Mayor Steve Austin and the Board of Commissioners
FROM: William L. "Buzzy" Newman, Jr., City Manager
SUBJECT: Amending Budgeted Positions and Pay Plan Relating to Hazardous Duty
Pay - Rehire Retired Police Officers
Final reading of two ordinances will be heard at a special called meeting on December
13, 2019. One will be to amend the budgeted positions for HPD allowing the rehiring of
retired police officers into the authorized police officer positions and the other will be to
amend the Hazardous Duty portion of the Pay Plan to set the rate of pay for rehired police
officers.
The proposed ordinances would allow the rehire of retired police officers under certain
specifications detailed in KRS 95.022 and Kentucky Retirement System certification
while allowing those officers to continue their retirement benefits under the Kentucky
Retirement System.
As detailed in the attached Police Department Memorandum 19-35 from Police Chief
Heath Cox, the City has received permission from the retirement system to fill the
equivalent of up to 15 police officer positions in full-time or part-time capacity with
retired police officers. Under KRS 95.022 the City would not be required to contribute
retirement employer contributions or insurance contributions normally due on retired
Kentucky Retirement System CERS members or provide health insurance coverage
through the City. It is proposed that these officers be hired on a contractual one-year
basis at the equivalent rate of pay of a 20-year patrol officer.
Officers hired under this provision would be within the current budget and within the
unchanged number of authorized police officer positions. Your approval of both the
attached ordinances is requested.

TO: Mayor Steve Austin and the Board of Commissioners
FROM: William L. "Buzzy" Newman, Jr., City Manager
SUBJECT: Amend Chapter 14 Garbage and Refuse - Proposed Schedule of
Garbage and Refuse Fees
An item for the agenda of the Friday, December 13, 2019 special called meeting is final
reading of an ordinance amending Chapter 14, Garbage and Refuse, Sections 14-88
Nonresidential rates; 14-90 Residential rates; and 14-91 Special charges of Article V,
Rates and Charges, of the City's Code of Ordinances. This item is in conjunction with
the proposed municipal orders establishing the rate schedules for the City Transfer
Station Solid Waste Disposal fees and the Residual/Construction Demolition and Debris
Landfill under separate cover.
The proposed ordinance would increase the nonresidential or commercial 2-yard
dumpster collection and disposal rate from the current $35.00 per month rate for a once-
weekly dumpster pick-up and $30.00 for each additional weekly pick-up to $40.00 per
month for a once-weekly pick-up and $35.00 for each additional weekly pick-up; would
increase the residential rate for collection and disposal of garbage and/or household
refuse from $17.00 to $19.50 per month, which includes a $1.00 per month earmark for
recycling services; and would increase the current $20.00 rate for special charges for
pick-up of any one truckload of garbage, refuse and/or rubbish or other waste material,
whether made by request of the owner or tenant of the premises or when the public
health, safety and welfare of the city should demand, when the amount accumulated,
deposited or stored for collection greatly exceeds the average amount usually deposited
on the premises for regular collection to $30.00 per small truckload (pick-up truck or one
ton dump truck) and to $60.00 per large truckload (single axle dump truck).
The proposed rate increases align more closely with the actual costs associated with the
collection and disposal of garbage and/or refuse and would take effect January 1, 2020.
Your approval of the attached ordinance is requested.
