Talks halted as police, city dispute future wage hikes
Campus/Area
By Dana Spoor Staff writer
Lawrence police officers, city officials and a federal mediator met yesterday in an attempt to iron-out an incident, but no agreement was reached.
Both sides agreed to break for the day and resume talks on Monday, David Reavis, chairman of the board of officers Association, said yesterday.
Both sides must agree on a contract and have it ready to go by Aug. 3 for budgetary reasons, he said. If an agreement is not reached with the federal mediator, there will be a hearing in Lawrence City Commission meeting.
There are six areas that need to be worked on: salaries in 1988; shift deferential pay; court-time pay; payment of dependent health plans; longevity; and a second-year appeal process.
Officers with different areas of
skills receive a higher wage. They now receive a 2.5 percent wage increase for skills such as teaching in English and for receiving higher education
"We are placing greater value on skills and encouraging them," he said. "For example, emergency medical training, we feel, is very important and it has a greater value of 5 percent."
The court-time pay disagreement, which determines how much officers get paid for court appearances, is no longer a major issue, Reavis said.
The two groups have decided to work on a two-year agreement, instead of the original one-year agreement. The biggest area of debate is salaries, said Ray Hummert, city employees relations director.
The two sides have agreed upon a wage increase of 4.5 percent in 1987. The city has asked the police to wait, but the police are asking for a 4 per raise for that year.
