The amendment is a new Section "V" addressing special <br />compensation payable to Potawatomi Zoo employees. <br />As members of the Council know, the City is in the process of negotiating an Agreement <br />with the Potawatomi Zoological Society to operate the Potawatomi Zoo. It is contemplated that <br />certain City employees will become Zoological Society employees after the Agreement is <br />completed and approved. Approval is anticipated to occur in mid - December 2013. Some of <br />these employees with less than ten years of service under the Public Employees Retirement Fund <br />(PERF) will surrender vesting privileges under PERF, among other privileges as City employees, <br />and the City desires to compensate them. Section "V" identifies the compensation payable. <br />I will present this Ordinance at the Council's Personnel & Finance Committee meeting <br />and at the public hearing. If you have any further questions or need additional information, <br />please let me know. <br />Thank you for your consideration. <br />Sincerely, <br />Mark W.
