Consider Side Letter of Agreement with the Police Department Union to modify work hours
Chief Logan asked Council to consider a Side Letter with the Police Department Union to modify
Section 7.6 of the Police Union Contract relating to working hours to help with coverage issues. Chief
Logan reported that the police department is short two officers, and he has been looking at ways to
provide better coverage. At this time, he would like to make an emergency adjustment to the contract
to adjust working hours and overtime as follows:
Current Contract:
7.6 reads hours worked over 8 per day: The employee will be paid for actual time worked at one and
one-half (1 ½) the regular hourly rate for time that exceeds eight (8) hours per day preceding or
following their shift. When called to return to work while off-duty, the employee will be paid a
minimum of two (2) hours at the rate of one and one-half (1 ½) times his regular hourly rate of pay.
Proposed Language for the Side Letter of Agreement:
Emergency adjustment is as follows. Hours worked over 12 hours per day: The employee will be paid
for actual time worked at one and one-half (1 ½) the regular hourly rate for time that exceeds twelve
(12) hours per day preceding or following their shift. When called to return to work while off-duty, the
employee will be paid a minimum of two (2) hours at the rate of one and one-half (1 ½) times his
regular hourly rate of pay.
Currently, officers work 1,947 hours per year, which averages out to 75 hours per two (2) week period.
Chief Logan proposed a schedule that would include six (6) 12-hour shifts and one (1) 8-hour shift
during each pay period.
City Administrator Mandsager recommended Council authorization a side letter of agreement with the
union based on the above language.
Moved by Crowner, seconded by Young, to authorize City Administrator Mandsager to enter into a side
letter of agreement with the Police Department Union regarding an emergency adjustment to working
hours. Motion carried by the following votes:
Ayes: Covert, Crowner, Johnson, Lees, and Young
Consider a Resolution hiring Public Works employee
Moved by Crowner, seconded by Young, to approve a Resolution hiring Tyler Dameron as a Public
Works laborer. Motion carried by the following votes:
Ayes: Covert, Crowner, Johnson, Lees, and Young

Agenda Item #1.
Consider the first reading of an Ordinance repealing Ordinance 858 and granting to Eastern Iowa
Light and Power Cooperative a non-exclusive twenty-five-year franchise to maintain and operate an

City Administrator Mandsager explained that when Council adopted Ordinance 858, Section 12 was
missing from the Ordinance when it was published. To correct this error, Council needs to remand the
previous Ordinance and readopt a new corrected version in it's place.
Moved by Lees, seconded by Young, to approve an Ordinance repealing ordinance no. 858 and
granting to Eastern Iowa Light and Power Cooperative, and its successors and assigns, a non-exclusive
twenty-five-year franchise to acquire, construct, erect, maintain, and operate an electric system in the

Battalion Chief Jason Shackleford has turned in a letter of resignation
for the Fire Department. BC Shackleford has been a tremendous leader of
the Fire Department and going to be missed. BC Shackleford sold his house
