Police Labor Agreement |
| | | | | | | | | BACKGROUND: | The City of Marquette has reached a new Agreement with the Marquette Professional Police Association - Police Officers Association of Michigan (POAM). The bargaining unit has ratified the Agreement. The main issues during negotiations were rates of pay and overtime provisions. The parties have agreed to a two-year contract with a 5% wage increase for year one in addition to a one-time $600 per person law enforcement retention bonus, and a 3% wage increase for year two.
The City's bargaining team would like to thank the Marquette Professional Police Association for their willingness to work with us to negotiate an Agreement that is fair to the employees and the City. |
|
| | | | | | | | | FISCAL EFFECT: | The total cost for the first year 5% increase to wages in addition to the one-time $600 law enforcement retention bonus is roughly $126,400. This will require a budget amendment.
|
|
| | | | | | | | | RECOMMENDATION: | | Approve the Marquette Professional Police Association Labor Agreement effective October 1, 2023 through September 30, 2025, and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to sign the Agreement. |
|
| | | | | | | | | ALTERNATIVES: | | As determined by the Commission. |
