Can we pull up the presentation please?

Next slide.

There we go.

Today today's agenda we're gonna go over some compensation city proposals, some of the language clarification you all have been waiting for, and then review some of the tentative agreements that you know see where we stand at.

And so we'll kick it off with the compensation, please.

Okay, good morning.

Uh Sasha Ondonovsky, Office of Management and Budget.

So we'll just go over a couple of slides uh with regards to c uh compensation and uh uh proposals that were uh in the last couple of months.

So this first slide is uh your first proposal.

Um so we already know what that is.

This next slide.

The next slide shows uh the cities proposal from uh May 14th.

So this proposal included uh two and a half percent cola uh and uh embedded uh five percent for the step increases.

This proposal also included uh elimination of some of the first steps and then adding uh additional step.

So that's the cost uh for the for the whole uh four years of the of the contract for the million dollars.

So we won.

We're gonna revise the slide before we posted its backup so that it's very clear what the city's proposal is because looking back at some of the pres presentations in the past, a couple of meetings that we've had, it's not very clear if you were just to look at the presentation, so we want to make sure that it's very clear that the city is also offering what you just mentioned with those step changes.

Yes.

So this is your proposal from six twenty-six, which includes five percent cola and embedded five percent uh f uh steps increases, and also uh this is uh there is a calculation for the uh estimation for the accepted uh uh incentives uh and the longevity that that you guys had.

Um so the total cost of the of the contract is fifty-six million dollars.

So this this proposal I want to mention this proposal also uh also in uh doesn't eliminate the first step, but includes tell st uh step number twelve.

These are the benefits.

We already shared this one.

Uh currently we have nine hundred and five uh employees included in the C D HP plan and then sixteen in the basic plan.

This is original proposal for the from the city, which included continuation of the current contract, twenty-two percent increases.

And you can see the uh the impacts there.

So for the for the most enrolled for the C D HP with uh with family, you can see that the increase is like twenty-five dollars, thirty-five dollars on an annual basis.

Uh uh for pay per pay period.

There are twenty-four payp uh pay periods for the health plan.

This is your proposal, ten percent increase.

Which uh for the most enrolled uh group, we have ten in ten of a little bit over ten dollars increase in twenty twenty-seven, fourteen dollars in twenty twenty eight, uh fifteen dollars in twenty twenty-nine and uh seventeen dollars in twenty thirty.

This that's uh C D H B plan, the last line on the C D H plan plan.

No, this is C D HP.

I'm I'm just uh explaining the the line with most uh enrolled employees.

Yeah.

And Nico, if you want to.

So your ten percent counter proposal we'd be okay with, but we would like to include this language into the agreement.

And so this is basically a discussion that we've already had.

So there's been federal changes related to the high deductible plans that we have.

So of the ten percent we'd be agreeable to if we incorporate this language.

Uh we need to obviously abide by the IRS rule, so net high deductible plan continues to change.

It seems like yearly now, and it's like $200, $300 every year that it's increasing by this next session.

Hi, Nicole Cody.

The next session includes if you look at your first handout, is going to be the one that says city proposals.

This will also include items that were pending language clarification from the city as well.

So the first item uh we've already discussed at the previous meeting.

This was proposed on June 26th.

So I will skip to the current one starting with item two, uh, miscellaneous.

And so this is uh proposed language regarding uh the creation of a temporary labor management committee to look at a discipline review board for the fire department.

Item three.

Reminder, real quick on number two there.

It's just it's just to discuss the possibilities.

It's not saying we're gonna do anything with it at the end.

And to that point, the to highlight the language is that the committee will bring the findings and recommendations to the city and association prior to the bargaining sessions, is what we're recommending before we begin bargaining for 2030, as well as um this committee would sunset at the term of this agreement.

I just have one question on that one.

Who would make up the committee?

It'd be like the rest of the committees.

We can use that structure.

Item three is um regarding the promotional and examinations for credentialing.

Oh, I apologize.
