990 <br />January 3, 1976 <br />Mr. Jaworski felt flooding should be done by the peiple who use the rinks. <br />Mr. Zelinka felt that cutting in the hours of service by the Police Department and <br />thus reduce the size and costs for that department should be considered. <br />The Clerk was instructed to compute costs for the retroactive pay that is part <br />of the nion contract and add to the cost figures for that department. It was also <br />suggested that the insurance program be the one that excludes the retirement portion <br />since all Police personnel must contribute to the PERA fund. <br />It was suggested the Council continue this meeting until Monday, January 5, 1976, and <br />ask the Attorney to attend a meeting at 7:00 P.M. to go over this report for possible <br />corrections before the mediation meeting to be held on Tuesday, January 6, 1976. <br />Mr. Marier suggested a 54% raise, $20.00 towards the Central State Ins. program without <br />the retirement clause, vacation schedule and uniforms as a City offer. <br />The length of this contract was questioned and Mr. McLean said it would expire on <br />December 31, 1976. <br />Mr. Zelinka said that retroactive pay cannot be considered since there are insufficient <br />funds to pay and would be setting a precedent. <br />Mr. Jaworski asked if all members have taken their Oath of Office? Mr. Zelinka and <br />Mayor Bohjanen have not been sworn in. Mr. Jaworski said all members must be sworn in. <br />Mr. Marier asked if notice of this special meeting had been posted? The Clerk said <br />the notice was posted on the door of the City Hall. Mr. Marier said that it must be <br />posted in three other places. Highway 49 and Co. Rd.
