MAMA-49 CITY MANAGERS <br />February 23, 1984 <br />Page Two <br />b. Dental Option <br />The dental option remains unchanged from 1983. <br />c. New Provision, Section 19.5 <br />Employees, under Section 19.5, can choose to request that <br />their wages be lowered from that due them under APPENDIX <br />A so as to have the City pay all of the cost of the <br />employee and dependents health, life, and dental <br />coverage. <br />MAMA recommends that employees be given a single time <br />each year when they most inform the City of their choice <br />under 19.5 for the entire coming year. <br />3. Working Out of Classification (ARTICLE XXII) <br />WORKING OUT OF CLASSIFICATION PAY, ARTICLE XXII of the <br />1983 MASTER AGREEMENT is deleted from the 1984-85 MASTER <br />AGREEMENT. <br />This ARTICLE was deleted since its substance is dealt with in <br />the new wage appendix (APPENDIX A). <br />4. Wage Rates and Job Classifications <br />Based on the expressed mandate of the MAMA cities represented <br />by MAMA to lower the future costs of running their public <br />works departments, the new AGREEMENT provides that the cities <br />may at their sole discretion hire all new employees <br />(employees hired after February 7, 1984) in the MAINTENANCE I <br />classification at $7.76 per hour. <br />Employees so hired will receive a higher wage rate only whan <br />they operate the equipment listed in APPENDIX A, Sections C-1 <br />or C-2. <br />The estimated future cost savings to the cities is quite <br />substantial. <br />In return for this future cost savings the AGREEMENT <br />grandfathers all employees hired previous to February 7, 1984 <br />above the new MAINTENANCE I job classification and deletes <br />the old hire rate of 90% and One Year step rate of 95% of the <br />contract rates. <br />'V, <br />
