The Common Council of the City of South Bend, Indiana

the annual pay for Police Officers in 1982, 1983, and 1984.

some of the many needs of the Police Officers.

CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA, as follows:

Chief, Divisions Chiefs and Captains as the management members of the
department.

Dear Councilmen:
AREA 219 284 -9321
The attached Salary Ordinance is the last offer which
we made to the Police Officer's Wage Committee. As you are
well aware this offer includes all of the available dollars
we could include in this three -year package.
Although this package was not ratified by the rank and
file of the F.O.P., we believe that it is the best possible
offer we can make in these ever - tightening- budgetary times.
We believe that the attached ordinance shows the Common
Council's sincere belief in making the Police Department a
top priority in our City.
You will note that the attached Ordinance includes
salary figures for the three management ranks, namely: Police
Chief, Division Chief, and Captain. These figures are
included at the request of the Mayor whose letter is attached,
and are not the result of any negotiations between our
Committee and these three ranks.
The attached Bill is within the guidelines established
by the Common Council. We believe it is a fair and equitable
package and seek your continuing support of it.
Sinc rely,
Co on Council Wage Committee

Dear Lew:
AREA 219 284 -9261
As has been discussed with you and the other Council
members a number of times, I am submitting below the salary
increases for the three top ranks of the Police and Fire
Departments which reflect the same percentage salary increases
that you have negotiated with the Fire Department.
I don't have to tell you that for the last years the salary
increases given to the administrative personnel and non - unionized
City employees have been abysmally low. All City employees need
a fair and reasonable salary for 1982, 1983 and 1984.
