RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution approving a side letter of agreement revising the July 1, 2019 - June 30, 2022 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City of Culver City and the Culver City Police Officers’ Association (POA).
BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION
The current POA MOU provides members with the ability to cash out unused holiday in-lieu accruals in accordance with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) doctrine of constructive receipt. The negotiated agreement required POA members to submit a form to Human Resources notifying of the decision to cash out. If a member failed to submit such form, the default was to cash out up to the maximum unused annual allowance. The revised provision will no longer require a POA member to submit a form if they elect not to take advantage of the annual cash out option.
In addition, during FY 19-20 City Council allocated funding to the Police Department to assist with recruitment efforts of lateral police officers. The POA MOU has been revised to document the incentive and referral program.
FISCAL ANALYSIS
There is no fiscal impact associated with the adoption of the Resolution.
