Mr. McLean moved to create a Police Advisory Board of five members plus the Mayor as liaison to include one member from the Centerville Council. Seconded by Mr. Marier. Motion carried with Mr. Bohjanen and Mr. Jaworski voting, No. The Board should be established by January 1, 1975. There will be discussion of this at subsequent Council meetings. Mr. Myhre returned and the motions concerning the full time personnel were read. Mr. Marier reiterated the necessity of setting up the department with short range and long range plans - these plans to be written up and scheduled. He must present new ideas for the department. Mr. Myhre asked for four things: 1. He would like to see a progressive wage scale created - with pay levels after so many years. 2. He would like a benefit program worked out for hospitalization and insurance. 3. He would like his vacation time to be computed from the time he started working for the City. 4. He would like permission to work eight hours on Saturday at the Applebaums' store at Northway in order to retain his seniority, benefits and vacation time for a period of six months. The wage increases would depend on the money available and what per cent each year must be considered each year. There is no way this Council can bind future Councils to pay increases at a certain percentage. The Council pointed out that there are few is any places of employment where a guaranteed wage increase is given at the time of employment. As to number four, they could see no conflict with this arrangement. The Council gave permission for this arrangement for six months and will open discussion on this at that time. The Clerk was asked to send confirming letters to the men hired and also to the ones not selected.
