GR.!:-:i~,:r COMMUN!T''{ .rOGETHEf7t <br /> <br />April 15, 2009 <br /> <br />Dear Redwood City Police Sergeants Association (PSA), <br /> <br />This will confirm our understanding of the recent agreement reached with PSA with respect <br />to a general freeze on the Salary Plan as set forth in section 7.2.2 of the PSA Memorandum <br />of Understanding (MOU) and extending the term of the current MOU to August 31, 2011. As <br />I am sure you are aware, to become effective. this agreement must be approved by the City <br />Council in public session. <br /> <br />On March 25, 2009, I had the opportunity to speak with the collective representatives of all of <br />the bargaining units representing employees of the City of Redwood City. At that time, I <br />shared the City's current financial difficulties and management's plan to address them. <br />As J made clear at that time, the City was not asking any or all of the bargaining units to re- <br />open their respective contracts. The City fully acknowledges each of those agreements to <br />be final and binding on the parties. However, after our discussion and recognizing the <br />current financial difficulties facing the City, the bargaining unit representatives each agreed <br />to place before their membership the question of whether a majority of the membership <br />would agree to a general freeze on their respective Salary Plans. <br /> <br />On or about April 10, 2009. you advised me that a majority of the PSA membership had <br />agreed to a general freeze on their Salary Plan to be effective September 01, 2009 and <br />continuing up to August 31,2010; however, the membership also desired to have the ending <br />date of the existing MOU extended to August 31, 2011 with all other terms and conditions <br />set forth in the MOU remaining in effect until such date. Having now met with the City <br />Council of the City of Redwood City, J now confirm that the City is amenable to such an <br />accord. As soon as reasonably possible, this Side Letter Agreement between the City of <br />Redwood City and PSA will be placed on an agenda of the City Council. <br /> <br />If the above is consistent with your understanding. please execute below this Side Letter <br />Agreement. <br /> <br />Acknowledged, Agreed and Accepted: <br /> <br /> <br />City of Redwood City <br /> <br />By: <br />Robert Bell, HR Director <br /> <br />By: <br /> <br />Dated: <br /> <br />Human Resources Department <br />www.redwoodcity.orglhr <br /> <br />1017 Middlefleld Road <br />650-780-7281 <br /> <br />Redwood City, CA 94063 <br />Job Hotline 650-780-7282 <br />
