NO. 89-64 The City Council was advised that the contract for Carnegie Forum Landscape and Sprinkler Project, 305 West Pine Street, CC -12(a) consists of providing new landscaping and a sprinkler CC -300 system around the new Carnegie Forum. Plans and specifications for this project were approved on May 3, 1989.

CITY COUNCIL OPPOSES SENATE BILL 1127 PROVIDING FOR LOCAL AUTHORITY TO PERMIT COMPULSORY AND BINDING ARBITRATION FOR PUBLIC SAFETY EMPLOYEES AND ASKING THE STATE SENATE FOR A NO VOTE ON SENATE BILL 1127 RES. NO. 89-65 The City Council was advised that the Senate Appropriations Committee has reported to the Senate Floor S8 1127 which CC -28 permits cities to establish a system of compulsory and CC -300 binding arbitration for police and firefighters. It was recommended that the City Council oppose this bill for the following reasons: 7 Continued June 7, 1989 1) Compulsory and binding arbitration destroys good faith bargaining. The parties at the table are not concerned with reaching an agreement but to posture to be in the best possible position for the arbitration process. 2) Police and fire unions state that compulsory and ending arbitration prohibits strikes. Strikes affecting public safety is now against the California law. Police and fire employees are well paid with the best possible set of fringe benefits. 3) Local option provision does not minimize bad policy. The fact that an ordinance makes something permissible does not make it an acceptable labor relations procedure. It is bad public policy for a legislative body to abdicate its responsibility to its employees and citizens to a non -elected non -local person. 4) Unfair To Other Employees. Compulsory and binding arbitration gives police and fire employees first priority over other employees and services in the local budget process. Remember, Council has no recourse to an arbitrator's award. They have turned the budget over to an outsider. Following discussion, the City Council on motion of Mayor Pro Tempore Hinchman, Reid second, adopted Resolution No. 89-65 opposing SB 1127 which supports compulsory and binding arbitration for police -fire employees. ORDINANCES No ordinances were presented to the City Council for adoption. ADJOURNMENT There being no further business to come before the City Council, Mayor Snider adjourned the meeting at approximately 8:20 p.m. ATTEST: n WU-L r", . .' L�% ,,��l Alice M.
