Ayes: Two. Nays: Schmitt. Motion carried. Councilperson Getty, if you go to the third sheet you have in your packet where it talks about the current organizational chart, the next one says the proposed chart. I still have a problem in figuring out that we've got three Battalion Chiefs on this proposed and we've got two Police Captains. In the old system we had three Police Captains. Where did the other Captain go? It's easy to see you have this here the Captain of Police Services as an assistant director though we have a Chief of Fire to the assistant director, but we still have got our three Battalion Chiefs, what happened? Councilperson Jones, I was under the impression that the Chief of Fire Services was not one of the Battalion Chiefs. Councilperson Getty, I don't know that's why I'm asking. Mayor Clark, the Captain of the Police Services will remain Captain of Police Services division but will also be elevated to the Assistant to the Director of Safety Services. They will assume some of the Captain's duties or retain some of the Captain's duties they currently have and assume the Assistant to Director of Safety Services. So it will be elevated in staff and the Chief of Fire Services is still yet to be determined where they are willing to come from. It was my opinion or desire at first to have that come from one of the Battalion Chief jobs. After having further studied that there is some question whether the Battalion Chief can actually do it, whether it needs to be 40 hours a week rather than retain 24 hours. So that assignment has been left vacant at this time and is something that will be worked out with the Director of Safety Services. The Battalion Chiefs and the Captains have to determine where that position comes from. Councilperson Getty, so we are still going to come up a police officer short? Mayor Clark, no the elimination of one position in this reorganization will be one position from the fire department and it will be the Fire Chief that has been at this point. The one position at the police department will be, we can't because of the cost. Councilperson Getty, well he has explained it but I'm still confused because we've got three now and we're going to move one of these three up to Chief of Fire Services. He's going to take over that job plus the Assistant Director's job. So one of those shifts, 1st 2°d or 3`d shift is still going to be without a Captain. Mayor Clark, that is not true. Captains in the police department are assigned to divisions and they work 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. So we still have a Captain performing the prior duties, essentially. Tim Pillack, Police Captain, right now we have Captain of Patrol, Captain of Investigation, Captain of Support Services. And it's my impression when this is all said and done one of those three Captains would be appointed to the Assistant Director's position and he would take on additional duties. •umalluatuaReuetu am aiquiasse o; art.; puv aogod q;oq utozd;uautageueut aq; g;im xioM ui2aq o; uoi;'sod ui `aovid ui .io;oazlp ail;1a2 am ii;un ssaoozd ui )'tom p aq o; anuquoo'Iim;i pue ssaooxd ul vom p si siq; ;eg; ssaoozd snl; jo Suiuul2aq aq; ;e pres skennie I •1.q2u `Xmio xo inyq 1,111411uatuaReugui Surnno ax,aM •;uax2 `aJop uoszadiiounoo ;ou asp am ou VeID zokeyq Larn are;gains amp jjo Apogituu 2upten ;ou az,am pup s;zego reuoi;eziueRto asaq; 2upipn;s uaaq and `moo uosiadiiounoD •sa,i `zaupiap •sayni i,itegszput ail; sn'd suiendvo azg moj anvil am mou os `poomuaazo uosxad[lounoj za ivt iegi ppe LuPIP fag1, •;uaui;zedap am ail; upon moj ail; jo pea;sui sui di o aanl; aas 'quo uuo am 'mar aged ail; um; o; azam no,i 31 •am;an. s ;uauno ail; uo aoiiod .io3 y puu a n3 .iO3 6 saNvul ;vq; pud •010q aas Luop no i ;eg; Iiugsxeut azg auo puu sure;duo and moj osre axe wail qj •;uaui;xpdap gird aq; uo Jana' zag;ouu umop o2 Lusaop ;i pazedaxd sum 1.m p SIT uagm sNoot `zaupiaM aiiatiom •;eqn puenszapun an!nb;,uop t pup atdoad ;g2la not and anti Ingo teuogezlue2xo aq; ne Moot i •ii ;nq 'Amp uosxadilounoo •;euuoj Ingo teuoi;eznteSzo uu ui ;eg; 1a2 o; ajqu uaaq ;ou and ;nq uanata o; antam; wog 2u1o2 ;noge s3Itp; ni axagi, •utuaZ ;uauta2euew a°llod ag am ail; xapun ang a2t d uo Si imp SOX `Uiungos uoszadi!Xunoo • • • antamn a 11104 02 on 8ulo2 axe OM Mg azag ui poi I `,C00 uoszadtiounoj •siq; anozdde on Non ;ou illm I os •siq; uuq; uoi;puuojui aioui paau ;snf i •urea; 1.u0um02vuuu1 am uo ueumogod ssa' auo si aas i;egm;nil •uauiaaitod Aup aso' o; 21.1io�;ou am am •ueutazg ssai auo aq on 2uio2 si axaq; pro; az,am mou)i J •OOs i;pgm s,;pg;;nq Altos ui j •;i xoj a;oA LIMO t siq; uo uoi;uuuoJui axout anmi I 'gun os pity •uuumogod ssaj auo ;ou `uuuzazg ssai auo q;im do pug o; 211100 ax,am;nil •apis am aq; uo azoui auo pup apis aogod am uo ssai auo si atom mou;nq atdoad;.pia jo ie;o; n ups s‘axag; `Ingo Ipuoi;eziuuazo pasodozd aq;;no Noo; am ji •aIdoad;g3ia jo Imo; sl atom Ilounoo AID pup xo,ivini am ;no gat.% Om 3I ;sego reuoi;eziunazo ;uazm0 am ;e Foot noX se ;eg; peg and suoi;sanb am jo autos `,Cap uoszadpouno3 suol;sanb moX 3o autos •aouazOJaz zoj ;snf �tteaz sjI •JCRS OM xana;vgm aszanaz i(tteax moo Il0uno0 aq; pug £-0-£ anon moo am •;eq; aptuano o; .i;uoC to zadns p sa3Ie; ;i uaq; Tulrpatuos ;sui 2e puautuiooax 'cam jr •uoissiututoD 2uiuoz ail 2uiutme1Boxd Tuluueid q;Jm aTil;g2iam Niue q;Im;l X1.1p0 Luop am •uoi;epuaunuooaz v iJamd si uoqupuaututooaz mo ;nil •anoxddp ;ou op zo anozddp xaq;ia `uiunIOs uosxad1iounoo •epuaRe ail; o;uo ;i ssed o; Jl0uno0 am jo;sat am o;;i puaunrooaz am aamututoo Amps oiignd e sp 'AlmuoszadliounoD •renozdde mo ;noq;im xo q;Jm sag;la pzpmzo3 ;i &uinout pup ;i 2ulniaoaz asp OM `11iutgOs uoszadjiOuno3 •sig; Suiniaoaz;snf OM OM os `sauo f uosxadiiounoD 1.112iuo1. zo3 epuaRe ail; uo s;i 'plumps uosmadiiounoo •iiounoo alogm aq; azojaq xpaddu 0; spaau sig; asnuoag i,aajiututoo siq; ui aaxq; sn q;im 2uinoxdde ,iiJen;Ou am axe ;uqm uta;i upua2u snl; `sauo f uosxadJTOunoD •;oaxxoo sjeq; `N°eiiid •zy.I 7,?iaam p smog Ob;e ups ‘ mg uoszadjiounoo Z aRed I I OZ `O i Jnuuf g allni Aioo XI3t Vs DI'Igfld PUBLIC SAFETY COMMITTEE January 10, 2011 Page 3 Councilperson Getty, I don't have any problem approving this. I kind of agree with what we are going to try and do. We can always go back and change it, I can understand that. I just hope that we don't sit here with egg on our face if we approve this thing tonight and in a week or two weeks we say oh we can't do this, we've got to change this, change that. I don't want to see that. Mayor Clark, I assure you that is not going to happen but as far as the management team, we're not going to change it, we're going to develop it and create it. As a matter of how this system is going to work, we are not going to change that. With no further business before the committee, it was moved by Getty, seconded by Jones that the meeting be adjourned at 5:00 p.m. Ayes: Three. Motion carried. Carol Failor Deputy City Clerk
