CITY OF SOUTH BEND MAYOR JAMES MUELLER OFFICE OF THE MAYOR May 20, 2020 Mr.Tim Scott President, South Bend Common Council 227 W.Jefferson Blvd., Suite 400 S South Bend, Indiana 46601 RE: One-time Mid-year Increase of Salary and City Residency Incentive for Sworn Police Officers Dear Council President Scott: I respectfully request that the attached ordinance be considered for first reading at the Common Council's meeting on May 26, 2020 and receive a public hearing on June 8,2020. This ordinance would increase sworn officer pay by 2.5%in 2020 and increase the city residency incentive from$400 to$2,500.Due to our current shortage of officers,these changes would not require the appropriation of additional funds above the 2020 budgeted amount. Also,these changes are not related to our current COVID-19 emergency. As you know,we have experienced sustained double-digit officer shortages over the past few years,and a large percentage of our current officers are eligible to retire with 20 years or more on the job. Addressing this issue is urgent,and I commissioned a compensation study shortly after becoming mayor in January.While this study is not yet complete,the attached preliminary findings motivate current action. The Board of Public Safety and Fraternal Order of Police voted unanimously in favor of these changes. I hope the Common Council will recognize the urgency of this matter and support this ordinance.Please let me or members of my team know if you have any questions.

The analysis, undertaken by Human Resources and the Department of Innovation &Technology, captures the comparative salaries of police agencies in the state and the region, factoring differences in cost of living. Analysis Highlights: SBPD is paid less than several peer agencies in Indiana SBPD is paid substantially less than our peer cities in the region, even after factoring in cost of living adjustments Adjusted Midwest Ranking: A Regional Comparison The scope of the analysis expands out of state to compare against peer agencies in the Midwest.The comparisons are adjusted for cost of living to provide even further context on relative compensation packages. In this ranking, SBPD is second to last in compensation of the 12 peer agencies compiled. 77 Funds List Ranking: A Baseline Compensation Comparison The 2019 '77 Fund list was provided by the Indiana Public Retirement System or INPRS. The number listed is the department's pension base. Out of 154 other agencies in Indiana, South Bend,the 4th largest city in Indiana, ranks at 38th with a pension base of 62,408. The Indiana pension base is comprised of the salary of a Patrolman First Class SBPD $59,158) and a departments 20-year longevity pay (SBPD $3,250). Further, while this gives the appearance of being in the top quartile of compensation in Indiana, this is not an accurate reflection of compensation and neglects factors such as population, cost of living, and other occupational pay incentives. Additionally, some departments may not EXCELLENCE I ACCOUNTABILITY I INNOVATION I INCLUSION I EMPOWERMENT 1200 County-City Building 1227 W.Jefferson Bvld.I South Bend.Indiana 466011 www.southbendin.gov pay officers the Patrolman First Class salary. This salary is only provided to calculate for the department's pension base. Adjusted Indiana Ranking: A Comparison of Peer Agencies The adjusted ranking for Indiana pares down the agencies to similar cities of population and proximity to a large metropolitan area, factoring in variables not considered in the 77 Fund list. By including clothing, longevity, and shift incentives to an officer's salary at 10 and 20 year time horizons, we are able to estimate what an officer should reasonably expect to make after 10 and 20 years. SBPD falls out of the top quartile of pay with these considerations, still below competing agencies like Elkhart.

The total wage, monetary fringe benefits and working conditions package was ratified by voting members of the FOP which resulted in the South Bend Common Council passing Ordinance No. 10472-16 on October 24, 2016. agreement establishingthe annual payandThatordinancesetforththeprovisionsofafour-year monetary fringe benefits for calendar years 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020, and established maximum annual pay and monetary fringe benefits for upper level policy making positions in the South Bend Police Department as defined in Indiana Code § 36-8-1-12. On October 14, 2019 this Council passed Ordinance No. 10682-19 which reaffirmed all provisions of Ordinance No. 10472-16 in its entirety for the 2020 calendar year. The City of South Bend("the City")had originally budgeted for 243 sworn police officers. However, due to a national shortage of officers, the City has far fewer officers than anticipated. The City Administration worked with the FOP Lodge No. 36 to engage in a compensation study regarding salaries of sworn police officers. Based upon that study, the Administration strongly encourages the Council to increase the compensation payable in calendar year 2020 to all sworn members of the South Bend Police Department including all upper level policy makers as set forth at Section II (a) of Ordinance No. 10472-16, and further affecting the City Residency Incentives compensation under Section III (b) of that ordinance. Due to the shortage of sworn officers, the increase in compensation would not require any additional appropriation of funds. On May 20, 2020, the South Bend Board of Public Safety passed Resolution 15-2020, A Resolution in Support of a One-Time Increase of the Salary of Sworn Police Officers. The Common Council believes that harmonious relations between the City and the FOP and its members are vital to the citizens of South Bend, and that such relations would be fostered by increasing the compensation and Residency Incentives for sworn officers for calendar year 2020. NOW,THEREFORE,BE IT ORDAINED by the Common Council of the City of South Bend, Indiana, as follows: 10721-20 SECTION I. The annual pay established for all sworn members of the South Bend Police Department,including all upper level policy making positions in the Department, as originally set out at Section II (a) of Ordinance No. 10472-16 and as reaffirmed for calendar year 2020 in Ordinance No. 10682-19, are hereby increased in each pay classification by two and one half per cent (2.5%) per annum during calendar year 2020, prospectively effective pro rata June 20, 2020, and each Ordinance is hereby amended as to that provision. SECTION II. The City Residency Incentives for all sworn members of the South Bend Police Department, as originally set out at Section III (b) of Ordinance No. 10472-16 and as reaffirmed for calendar year 2020 in Ordinance No. 10682-19 are hereby increased from Four Hundred Dollars 400.00)to Two Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($2,500.00) for calendar year 2020 effective June 20, 2020 for all sworn members of the South Bend Police Department residing within the City limits on that date and thereafter, and each Ordinance is hereby amended as to that provision. SECTION III. All the rest and remainder of Ordinances No. 10472-16 and 10682-19 are hereby reaffirmed without modification. SECTION IV.

McBride called out for his dead mother. As shocking and unbelievable these Third District recordings are, it is sad to say that similar events are not uncommon in our Troy Warner country. Fourth District Mr. Floyd's murder has led to an outpouring of peaceful protests in the Jake Teshka United States and around the world. It is unusual these days to see so many Fifth District people of different colors, backgrounds, and religious beliefs to join in a Sheila Niezgodski common cause. Sixth District This proposed resolution adds the South Bend Common Council to the list of Karen L.White people and entities denouncing the murder of Mr. Floyd and calling for At Large immediate reforms to assure dignity and justice for all people. Human decency requires no less. Rachel Tomas Morgan At Large We therefore ask that this proposed Resolution be scheduled for consideration Lori K. Hamann at the Council's June 8, 2020 meeting.

A RESOLUTION OF THE COMMON COUNCIL OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA,DENOUCING IN THE STRONGEST POSSIBLE TERMS ALL ACTS OF RACIAL PROFILING,POLICE BRUTALTY AND THE USE OF EXCESSIVE POLICE FORCE THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY WHEREAS, on May 25, 2020, George Floyd, a black resident of the City of Minneapolis, Minnesota, was publicly and brutally murdered through the actions and inactions of four police officers while he cried out"I can't breathe" and called for his dead mother; and WHEREAS, Mr. Floyd's death occurred while he was handcuffed, lying face down on the street while one officer knelt on his neck, another officer applied pressure to his back and at least two other officers ignored pleas from onlookers to save Mr. Floyd's life; and WHEREAS, the officer continuedpp1 in pressure to Mr. Floyd's neck for nearlynine (9)minutes, more thanaYgY three (3)minutes after he stopped breathing; and WHEREAS, although this method of restraint has been banned or strongly discouraged by many police departments, reports indicate that Minneapolis police used neck restraints, i.e. using an arm or leg to compress a neck without directly putting pressure on the airway, at least two hundred and thirty-seven (237) since the beginning of 2015, with at least forty-four(44) of the victims losing consciousness; and WHEREAS, despite recordings of Mr. Floyd's death having been replayed innumerable times throughout the world leading to world-wide protests, a Seattle police officer was recorded using a similar tactic on a protester until his knee was forcibly removed by another officer while onlookers screamed"get your f*****g knee off his neck"; and WHEREAS, this is the second time in the past year that members of this Common Council have expressed condolences to the family and friends of a Black man killed by a white police officer, the death of Eric Logan on June 16, 2019, though tragic,did not draw global attention to America's problems, in part, because Mr. Logan was killed in the middle of the night, in a dark parking lot, with no witnesses or video to document what actually happened and the investigation of his death left unanswered many questions in the minds of many people, unlike the public killing of Mr. Floyd, in broad daylight, with several recordings and witnesses; and WHEREAS, historical injustices and racial disparities that have existed in our country for hundreds of years have led to many Black men dying at the hands of white police officers in a system of policing in America that targets people of color and which can be traced back to the long legacy of slavery, lynching, and Jim Crow laws; and WHEREAS, it is currently not only Black men, but also Black women and girls, Latinos and Native Americans who suffer from this shameful history; and WHEREAS the very public and brutal murder of Mr. Floyd has caused world-wide outrage because such actions can no longer be willfully denied or ignorantly disregarded; and WHEREAS, racial profiling and excessive force, which includes shootings, brutal beatings, fatal chokings, and other excessive abuses, are contrary to human decency, the inherent dignity of every individual, and the American ideal of equal justice for all. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA,AS FOLLOWS: Section I. The Common Council expresses its deep and sincere condolences, not only to the family and friends of Mr. Floyd, but also to the family and friends of all other such victims whose suffering is renewed and intensified every time there is another family suffers a similar loss. 4857-20 4SOUTH7r1014 6 A. 4413. ' ti xce> JJ yI' i1865 Section II. This Common Council denounces in the strongest terms possible all acts of racial profiling,police brutality and the use of excessive police force such as those that led to the deaths of Mr. Floyd and many known and unknown other victims. More specifically, the Common Council calls for every law enforcement agency or department to immediately adopt a goal of zero (0) deaths while employing apprehension and detainment procedures which provide safe practices for both officers and suspects. Section III. The Common Council calls on each individual resident to similarly condemn the actions leading to the death of Mr. Floyd and others like him. Section IV. The Common Council, recognizing the inherent dignity of every human person,renews its unwavering commitment to the goal of equal treatment of all through not only the words, but more importantly, the actions, of this legislative body. Section V. That commitment is not onlyestablished bypast acts such as: lastyear allocating $180,000 for 21 CP Solutions to evaluate the police department's policies and practices on the use of force, body-worn cameras,bias-informed policing, accountability, and community engagement and participation, but also continuing and future acts such as encouragement of implementation of 21 CP Solutions valid recommendations by the Board of Public Safety and the South Bend Police Department, encouraging the adoption of a fair and just matrix for exercising police discipline and the continued study and consideration of a citizen review board to add community input into South Bend policing.

Provided the center retains the existing character of a traditional single family house, it should not affect the surrounding properties in a substantially adverse manner. 3) The proposed use will be consistent with the character of the district in which it is located and the land uses authorized therein; Day Care Centers are not out of character with the S1 Suburban Neighborhood 1 Districts. This Special Exception is needed because the owner will not live on the premises. The owner has demonstrated a willingness to manage the property by providing needed repairs to the structure and continue to keep the property consistent with its former use as a single family home. 4) The proposed use is compatible with the recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan. This petition is consistent with the City Plan, South Bend Comprehensive Plan, Objective ED 7: Support neighborhood-based economic development. A Day Care Center is a good example of neighborhood development and redevelopment such as this Day Care Center as long as it is in character with the neighborhood.

No person or entity other than the City or another state or local governmental unit will own property financed by Tax- Exempt Bond proceeds or will have actual or beneficial use of such property pursuant to a lease, a management or incentive payment contract, an arrangement such as take-or-pay or output contract, or any other type of arrangement that differentiates that person's or entity's use of such property from the use by the public at large. b) No Tax-Exempt Bond proceeds will be loaned to any entity or person other than a state or local governmental unit. No Tax-Exempt Bond proceeds will be transferred,directly or indirectly, or deemed transferred to a non-governmental person in any manner that would in substance constitute a loan of the Tax-Exempt Bond proceeds. c) The City will not take any action or fail to take any action with respect to the Tax-Exempt Bonds that would result in the loss of the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Tax-Exempt Bonds pursuant to Section 103 of the Code, and the regulations thereunder as applicable to the Tax-Exempt Bonds, including, without limitation,the taking of such action as is necessary to rebate or cause to be rebated arbitrage profits on Tax-Exempt Bond proceeds or other monies treated as Tax-Exempt Bond proceeds to the federal government as provided in Section 148 of the Code, and will set aside such monies, which may be paid from investment income on funds and accounts notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, in trust for such purposes. d) The City will file an information report on Form 8038-G with the Internal Revenue Service as required by Section 149 of the Code. 21 - e) The City will not make any investment or do any other act or thing during the period that any Tax-Exempt Bond is outstanding hereunder which would cause any Tax- Exempt Bond to be an "arbitrage bond" within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code and the regulations thereunder as applicable to the Tax-Exempt Bonds. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Ordinance, the foregoing covenants and authorizations(the"Tax Sections")which are designed to preserve the exclusion of interest on the Tax-Exempt Bonds from gross income under federal law (the "Tax Exemption") need not be complied with to the extent the City receives an opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel that compliance with such Tax Section is unnecessary to preserve the Tax Exemption.

Unless the context or laws clearly require otherwise, references herein to statutes or other laws include the same as modified, supplemented or superseded from time to time. SECTION 30. Payment on Bonds in the Event of Default. In the event available moneys are insufficient to pay debt service on the Refunding Bonds and bonds ranking on parity with the Refunding Bonds when due, available moneys shall be applied, after payment of all costs and expenses associated therewith, to the Refunding Bonds and any such parity bonds as follows: 22 - to the payment to the persons entitled thereto of all unpaid installments of interest then due on, and the unpaid principal of,the Refunding Bonds and any such parity bonds,including interest on any past due principal of any Refunding Bond or such parity bonds at the rate borne by such Refunding Bond or such parity bonds, in the order of the maturity of the installments of such interest and the due dates of such principal and, if the amount available shall not be sufficient to pay in full any particular installment of interest or maturity of principal, then to such payment ratably, according to the amounts so due, to the persons entitled thereto, without any discrimination or privilege or any preference of or priority of interest over principal or principal over interest.
