(,
The International Association of Firefighters will be honoring the retirement of six
fire fighters who have retired from the Fire Department in the past year. A retirement
dinner is scheduled for October 3, 1985, and the I.A.F.F. has requested that the City
contribute $300 toward expenses.
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt resolution authorizing the expenditure of $300 from the
contingency reserve.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: N.A.
DISCUSSION:
In February, 1985, the City Council approved Resolution 11948, authorizing the expenditure
of $300 from the contingency reserve as a contribution towards the expenses incurred
by the Police Department and the Police Officers Association in connection with the
retirement of a number of police officers. During discussion of this item, Council
indicated a desire to not make this a "selective gift" , and to make the practice
equitable for all employees .
The I.A.F.F. retiring employees represent over 120 years of service with the City
collectively, and the Association is requesting that the City contribute $300 toward
incurred expenses. Since this is an unanticipated expense, staff is recommending
the the Council favorably consider authorizing this amount from the contingency
reserve.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Sufficient funds are available in the appropriated contingency reserve account.
