SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The City Manager, Director of Public Works, Water Superintendent and Purchasing Agent recommend approval of the bid from Brotcke Well & Pump. in the amount of $38,881.00. BACKGROUND: The City currently has 4 gravel pack wells and one Ranney Collector Well. The Ranney Well was originally constructed in 1959 and has been rehabilitated several times since then with the most recent rehabilitation completed in 2019. This well can produce in excess of the City’s daily water demand by itself. In the 1970’s the City installed gravel pack wells #1, #2, and #3 to provide a backup water supply to enable the City to take the Ranney Well out of service for maintenance. These gravel pack wells have been rehabilitated numerous times over the years but have reached the end of their design life. Gravel pack #3 was taken out of service two years ago due to not being able to produce sufficiently. Gravel pack wells #1 and #2 were rehabbed last year so they are currently producing satisfactorily at this time but are anticipated to need rehabbed again in 2022. It is planned to retire gravel pack wells #1, #2, and #3 in the next couple of years due to their age. The City has already installed Gravel Pack Well #4 in 2016 and Gravel Pack Well #5 in 2020. It is now proposed to construct a new gravel pack well #6. Gravel pack wells #4 and #5 were both installed in the existing well field and connected to existing piping in that location due to the known aquifer location. However, due to the frequency of flooding events, it is advantageous for the City to locate the Gravel Pack Well #6 out of the floodplain up closer to the water treatment plant. In May 2020, the City Council approved a siting study for Gravel Pack Well #6 to investigate drilling a well near the treatment plant. The test well showed adequate water pumping capacity but had a high level of Nitrates that was just under the allowable limits at the location north of the treatment plant, so additional borings were taken just to the west of the existing plant which showed much lower Nitrates levels. It is believed that the location west of the plant will also yield an adequate supply of water based on the borings. The location west of the plant is a lower elevation, but the proposed well is proposed to be constructed above the flood plain. Its close location to the plant will allow it to utilize the backup power from the plant generator which is located outside of the floodplain. The proposed well location will also eliminate the need to access the well house by boat during flood events. The attached location map shows the proposed well location. On March 15, 2021, the City Council approved hiring Klingner and Associates, PC to prepare bid documents for the construction of Gravel Pack #6. As part of the design process, it is necessary to have a Contractor drill a test hole to make sure that the new well location will produce an adequate supply of water and that it will meet all required water quality requirements. Four contractors submitted bids for the work, with the lowest bid being from Brotcke Well & Pump from Fenton, MO. in the amount of $38,881.00. 21-3014 ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Prepared by: WEC Page 2 of 2 BUDGET IMPACT: There are sufficient funds budgeted in the Capital Replacement Schedule for Water Division for this work.

SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The City Manager, Director of Public Works, City Engineer, and Purchasing Agent recommend approval of the bid in the amount of $741,562.44 to Gunther Construction, a division of United Contractors Midwest. BACKGROUND: The existing street base and concrete curb and gutter will be completely removed and replaced with a new full depth concrete pavement and concrete curb and gutter. This contract also includes construction of all new concrete driveway approaches from the street to the back of the sidewalk as well as replacement of the sidewalks. The bid documents require the Contractor to harvest the existing bricks on this street and place them in the City’s brick storage yard. At the City’s request, the Contractor submitted a credit in the amount of $30,000 if they were not required to salvage the bricks from this project. It is recommended to reject the credit and harvest the bricks for storage so that they can be used for reconstruction of a protected brick street in the future. The project was advertised in the Register Mail, in the Illinois Department of Transportation Bulletin to all contractors statewide, and on the City’s website. Nine (9) bid proposals were sent out and five (5) bids were received. The low bidder was Gunther Construction Co. from Galesburg, IL in the amount of $741,562.44. The bid for this project was within the estimated amount anticipated for the work. The work will be done in two stages and the contractor will have 45 working days to complete the project. It is anticipated that the project will begin in June. BUDGET IMPACT: $174,450 will be paid Fund 14 (City Gas Tax), Line Item 78010 and 567,112.44 will be paid from Fund 11 (Motor Fuel Tax), Line Item 78010. $450,000 was originally budgeted for the project from Motor Fuel Tax and $300,000 from City Gas Tax. $125,550 in City Gas Tax funds were used on another road project in order to use additional Motor Fuel Tax funds on this project.

BACKGROUND: Beginning in 2018, the City’s group health insurance plan has been purchased through a broker. A comprehensive review by staff determined that additional valuable services should be provided by the broker in addition to placing insurance. In March, the City issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) from interested parties to provide those services. This request called for firms to provide their qualifications for determining effective health plan designs, cost-containment programs and wellness initiatives. Five firms, including our current insurance broker, responded by submitting their qualifications and providing pricing information. All five provided presentations to human resources staff. Staff selected Assured Partners and Gallagher Bassett as the most qualified to provide these services and these firms were asked to present a second time to a group of Department Heads. After the completion of these interviews, the Administration determined that Assured Partners is the firm that provides the qualifications, services and expertise that are best tailored to the City’s needs. The fee offered for their services is a flat fee of $50,000 per year, beginning 1/1/2022. For the period 7/1/21–12/31/21 their fee will be offset by commission savings when our current group health plan is transferred to them by way of a “broker of record” letter. BUDGET IMPACT: Funding for services is included in the 2021 proposed Benefits Budget 078- 51000 professional services and will be included in the 2022 Benefits Budget.

We have a specific division that only specializes in cities, just like you. We will also provide The City of Galesburg an employee benefits benchmark report with 525 Illinois & Iowa companies comparing your benefits to others to help guide plan design and contribution strategies. The closest municipalities we insure are The City of Davenport with 850 employees, The City of Monmouth with 60 employees and Waste Commission of Scott County with 80 employees; all are provided as references. Our Davenport and Galesburg offices have been working with both fully-insured and self-funded health plans since the 1960s. We have extensive experience with consulting and managing various funding strategies for employer health and welfare plans in private, governmental/public, and non-profit sectors. As previously referenced, we have both local and national experience working in the public sector. Each public sector client has different needs and requirements that must be considered when creating and sustaining a long-term benefits strategy. All of the examples below, whether municipality or private sector, could be deployed for The City of Galesburg. With our public experience we understand the unique considerations municipalities have with union agreements and restrictions. Using Blueprint, we bring new ideas with cost savings strategies and ensure that the client will not violate these agreements before implementing a solution.

We begin our engagement with a proprietary consultative process called Blueprint. Including the AssuredPartners team and key members of The City of Galesburg’s management and leadership, the main purpose of this meeting is to discuss the strategic direction of the organization and devel op specific strategies to drive efficiencies and ultimately support The City of Galesburg’s overall benefit and strategic plan. In this response, we will list many of the tools and strategies that we could implement for the City of Galesburg. Blueprint will determine what we should implement for the City of Galesburg with your input. Blueprint will help us determine the steps to take to move the City’s benefit strategy to a higher-performing state. Whether fully-insured or self-funded, this foundational analysis determines how our strategies and solutions will benefit The City of Galesburg. Specific deliverables and strategic planning meetings will be scheduled based on the funding strategy of your healthcare and benefit programs. The City of Galesburg has a fully-insured medical program and many of the deliverables we offer help improve cost and employee understanding of the benefit programs. If the City moves to a self -funded medical program, there are additional strategies that can only be implemented under that arrangement. For example, the City of Galesburg cannot “carve-out” the Pharmacy Benefits as a fully-insured medical program with Blue Cross Blue Shield. Under a self-funded program, more options exist for Pharmacy Benefits. Blueprint will help us establish a multi-year strategy and prepare the City of Galesburg for the best benefit program design and funding strategy. AssuredPartners Great Plains, LLC RFQ | Benefits Consulting and Brokerage Services 13 In developing a Blueprint benefit strategy for The City of Galesburg, we will analyze the following items in detail: • The City of Galesburg’s culture • Wellness activities to date • Optimal level of intervention • Claim data analytics • Plan design • Benchmarking • Enrollment method • Consumerism/HDHP/HSA • Employee communications • Contribution strategy for plan options • Funding • Income and life protection need • Compliance • Technology In addition to these strategic evaluations, we will also conduct a thorough review of your health and welfare plan documents and historical data. During this initial review, we will collect data that includes current plan design, claims experience, rate history, communication materials, and other essential information to build a profile of the current plan and recent changes. We strive to obtain as much information from the carriers as possible to limit the City of Galesburg’s involvement. This strategic benefits consulting is a continuous process that puts The City of Galesburg’s needs and culture at the center of all services and work product deliverables. AssuredPartners Great Plains, LLC RFQ | Benefits Consulting and Brokerage Services 14 Brokering of Insurance Coverages During the renewal process we will work with The City of Galesburg to negotiate renewal rates, develop plan design alternatives, and market coverage. Although marketing coverage every year may not be needed, we will bid coverage whenever it is in the best interest of The City of Galesburg. Marketing of coverage typically occurs when renewal negotiations come to an impasse, there is an issue with service , or in the event the program has not been out to bid for three years or more. If applicable, we will market each benefit line to ensure competitive rates. These are core services included in our proposed Consulting Cost. During the renewal process we will always present The City of Galesburg w ith renewal options that include variations on the program design, focusing on plan deductibles, copays, out of pocket maximums, and other premium funding options. These options may not meet the needs of your bargaining and non-bargaining employee contracts, but will be reviewed before implementing. For a January renewal, we normally conduct pre-renewal meetings beginning in July with plan finalization in September. During your renewal process, we have already created financial dashboards with current plan designs, enrollment, and contributions and therefore are ready to provide consultative feedback with written and live modeling at any point. Typically, employee communication strategies are planned at the beginning of a plan year for graphical and te xtual content, delivery method, and frequency. In the case of a newly acquired client, we begin consulting and strategizing immediately to build a client specific brand for the benefits program. Often, a multi-pronged communication strategy is utilized to educate, reinforce value, or communicate key initiatives. Claims Analysis As a data-driven organization that employs big-data analysts, we have placed a tremendous emphasis on the ability to analyze and report on data. We allow data to validate the strategies we propose to our clients. Analytic Platforms Don Feipel, who has been in the claim processing business for more than 20 years, will assist The City of Galesburg in claims analysis. Don helps our clients identify opportunities to enhance benefit programs while mitigating risk. These tools identify disease states that assist us in developing disease management and wellness initiatives, large case management, and telemedicine opportunities. AssuredPartners Great Plains, LLC RFQ | Benefits Consulting and Brokerage Services 15 Plan Design Modeling • Interactive Plan Design Modeling We prefer to engage our clients in planning sessions to model benefit plan designs and quantify the impact those changes may have on employee claims, bargaining agreements, and overall budget performance. Should The City of Galesburg consider self-funding the medical program, our team of analysts and actuaries can be engaged. Many clients choose to move toward self-funding to have better control over cost and plan performance. We can perform a Self-Funded Feasibility Analysis for a project fee that will provide a detailed review and recommendation of whether self-funding is the right choice for the City. AssuredPartners Great Plains, LLC RFQ | Benefits Consulting and Brokerage Services 16 Compliance/Health care Reform/HR Advisory We have in-house counsel and a fully-staffed compliance department that keep our clients up-to-date on regulatory changes and in the best position to ensure compliance with governmental and contractual requirements. Our compliance department will be your resource to assist with either sample documents, or simple reminders, such as Medicare D Creditable coverage notices. We will work with you to ensure that your welfare benefit programs are following all applicable government regulations. Blueprint will identify which compliance solutions are needed. We provide the following services: Initial Compliance Onboarding •Review current plan documents for compliance with applicable IRS & DOL regs •Review current Summary Plan Descriptions (SPDs), Summaries of Material Modifications (SMMs) and benefit booklets for compliance with applicable DOL requirements •Determine which plans are subject to non-discrimination testing •Conduct PPACA compliance analysis Ongoing Services •Provide ongoing consulting services when you have technical questions about your plan •Inform you of legislative changes through newsletters and client seminars/webinars •Assist you with complying with the requirements of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, as amended (“PPACA”), including, among other things, the following: o Determining who is a full-time employee and whether your health plans provide minimum essential coverage and are affordable and provide minimum value, as applicable, for purposes of the employer shared responsibility requirements under PPACA •Create Custom Compliance Materials to ensure The City of Galesburg meets applicable requirements •Assist with questions relating to COBRA, HIPAA, FMLA ‘s interaction with your health & welfare plans, and IRC Sec. 125, 105(h), etc. •The City of Galesburg has access to HR Workplace Services already through the AssuredPartners/Molyneaux Risk Management Consulting agreement. This access and HR Consulting will continue for the City. AssuredPartners Great Plains, LLC RFQ | Benefits Consulting and Brokerage Services 17 Employee Communication Assistance Using Blueprint, our team develops and executes a customized communications strategy for each client and their employees. These can include electronic or printed materials, employee meetings or educational webinars. We understand that attracting and retaining talented employees is a major challenge for any organization. A competitive benefits package can help make the difference; however, effectively communicating the package to potential and current employees is essential. You will receive an individualized communications package delivered in plain language and tailored to fit your particular benefit program. Whether you are seeking to educate new employees about their options or promoting a change in employee behavior, our team will provide customized materials. We will collaborate with your team to develop a communication strategy that meets the needs of your employees: • Communication strategy and benefits branding • Customized employee benefit guides and enrollment forms (paper or electronic) Below are sample drafts that our team has created: AssuredPartners Great Plains, LLC RFQ | Benefits Consulting and Brokerage Services 18 Enrollment Solutions and Technology We assist our clients with enrollment solutions and technology, both in -house and with selected partners. During Blueprint, should the City identify the need for a paperless benefits administration technology, we have access to many custom solutions. Each client has unique needs for flexibility, insurance carrier interface, employee experience , and cost. In addition to a paperless enrollment technology, we can implement an in -person or virtual benefits education team to assist employees with their enrollment decisions. Wellness and Health Risk Solutions Through Blueprint we assist our clients with any clinical/quality issues in wellness, disease management and related areas and we utilize the services of the insurance carriers or outside professionals to ensure the most comprehensive programs for our clients’ needs. The need to analyze wellness programs and their impacts on claims is significant. There has been so much confusion in the marketplace as to how wellness can impact plan spend and the dubious task of identifying a true ROI. If we are able to capture medical claim, pharmacy claim, biometric data and any other data set that is available, we position ourselves to do extremely detailed analysis on the impact of wellness on the plan costs. Benchmarking We use benchmark data such as plan design, contributions, funding mechanisms, enrollment, wellness, disease management, ancillary benefits, etc. We utilize sources such as Share to Compare a specific benchmark survey in Illinois, Missouri Iowa, PWC, AssuredPartners’ book of business, competitor benchmark reports, & Kaiser Family Foundation. The City of Galesburg participated in and received our 2020 Share to Compare Benchmark Study and Analysis. AssuredPartners Great Plains, LLC RFQ | Benefits Consulting and Brokerage Services 19 Voluntary Benefit Consulting Using Blueprint, our consultants create voluntary benefit packages that make sense for the client. We deploy: Consultation, Brokerage, Communication, Enrollment, Administration, and Management. We create simple and affordable options that compliment core benefit packages and provide financial peace of mind for employees with concern about deductibles and out of pocket medical costs. Our communication approach is informative and thorough, with the goal of educating employees to make informed decisions regarding voluntary benefits. Customized for each company, this may be accomplished through a combination of group and individual meetings, email campaigns, posters, call center assistance, and webinars which ultimately lead to a pressure-free enrollment where employees make confident decisions.

The owner of the vacant lot is Seminary Street Station. The most recent use of this lot was for the rail car for the Railroad Museum before they built their new building. The lot in its current condition is not an attractive lot in the center of downtown. If the City acquires the lot, it is proposed to improve the lot to match the existing improvements in Parking Lot D It is proposed to install landscaping along the south, east, and west sides of the new parking lot that will blend with the existing landscaping in Parking Lot D. In addition, lighting will be added that matches the existing lighting. The lot would be able to accommodate an additional 25 parking spaces. The lot is 66 feet x 132 feet or 8,712 square feet (0.20 acres). The proposed purchase price is reasonable and comparable to similar properties.

Kellogg Street. SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The City Manager and Interim Director of Community Development recommend the Redeveloper Agreement be approved. BACKGROUND: Benedict Developers, LLC is proposing a complete renovation of the vacant building at 185 S. Kellogg St. and have requested Tax Increment Financing District IV assistance. This project will also include the complete renovation of the interior of the building. This will include interior brick restoration, new windows, skylights and doors, new framing, all new mechanical, electrical and plumbing. Once complete, the project will offer a new taproom with approximately 30 taps, a brew house area and a venue space that would be for events such as weddings, concerts, game tournaments or other community events. The estimated total renovation cost is $2,479,570.93, of which includes $1,804,046.82 that would be eligible expenses under the TIF program. The proposed incentive would be approximately 15% of the eligible expenses, which would be up to $270,607.02, which would be paid out in equal installments over a four year period. The remainder of the expenses would be paid for by private investment. Also on the agenda tonight is an item to consider a Downtown Façade Grant incentive for renovations to the exterior of the building. The owner anticipates beginning work as soon as possible, weather permitting, and anticipates completion by the Fall of 2021. BUDGET IMPACT: The TIF IV Redevelopment Area (Fund 49) has sufficient funds available to cover the request. SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS: 1.

No waiver made by either such party with respect to the performance, nor the manner of time thereof, or any obligation of the other party or any condition as to its own obligation under this Agreement shall be considered a waiver of any rights of the party making the waiver with respect to the particular obligation of the other party or condition to its own obligation beyond those expressly waived in writing and to the extent thereof, or a waiver in any respect in regard to any other rights of the party making the waiver or any other obligations of the other party.

Provided, that the party seeking the benefit of the provisions of this Section, shall have first notified the other party thereof in writing, of the cause or causes thereof, and requested an extension of the period of enforced delay.

the Public Safety Employees’ Organization (the “PSEO”). PREAMBLE WHEREAS, the City has voluntarily endorsed the practices and procedures of collective bargaining as a fair and orderly way of conducting its relations with certain of its full-time employees insofar as such practices and procedures do not interfere with the City’s right and obligation to operate effectively in order to best serve the City and its residents and to make clear all basic terms upon which such relationship depends; and WHEREAS, it is the intent and purpose of the parties to set forth herein their entire agreement covering rates of pay, wages, hours of employment and other conditions of employment, and to provide the procedure for the prompt and peaceful settlement of grievances respecting the terms of this Agreement; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and agreements herein contained, the parties do mutually promise and agree as follows: ARTICLE I – RECOGNITION SECTION 1.1 PSEO RECOGNIZED The City voluntarily recognizes the PSEO as the exclusive bargaining agent for the purpose of establishing the wages, hours and terms and conditions of employment for all non-exempt full- time permanent employees in the classification of Police Officer, but excluding supervisory, confidential, probationary and exempt employees and all elected officials or officers of the City. SECTION 1.2 NEGOTIATIONS Each party shall be permitted to have five (5) individuals sit on the negotiating committee provided that not more than one patrol officer and one investigator per shift shall be relieved from duty unless previously approved by the Chief of Police, and such leave shall not interfere with any emergency services. ARTICLE II – PSEO RIGHTS SECTION 2.1 DUES DEDUCTIONS While this Agreement is in effect, the City will deduct twice per month one-half (1/2) the regular monthly PSEO dues for each employee in the bargaining unit for whom there is on file with the City a voluntary effective checkoff authorization as per Appendix A attached. The amounts so 2 deducted shall be forwarded upon each deduction to the appropriate officer of PSEO. The PSEO may change the fixed uniform dollar amount which shall be considered the regular PSEO dues once each year during the life of this Agreement. The PSEO will give the City thirty (30) days’ notice in writing of any such change in the amount of uniform dues to be deducted. The PSEO authorization is revocable by an employee submitting a notice in writing to the City Manager’s Office with a copy to the PSEO. SECTION 2.2 PSEO INDEMNIFICATION The PSEO shall indemnify, defend and save the City harmless against any and all claims, demands, suits or other forms of liability and for all legal costs that shall rise out of or by reason of action taken or not taken by the City in complying with the provisions of this article. Each party agrees to refund to the other any amounts paid in error on account of this dues deduction provision within ten (10) days of notification. SECTION 2.3 PSEO ACCESS One PSEO representative may have access to the premises of the City during a labor dispute in order to help resolve a problem. In order to receive access, the representative must first advise the appropriate supervisor. SECTION 2.4 FAIR SHARE DEDUCTION Employees are not required to join the PSEO as a condition of employment. In the event that an eligible employee does not join the PSEO, or elects to withdraw from membership during the term of this Agreement, a “fair share” deduction shall be made from his paycheck by the Employer. This fair share amount to be deducted shall be certified by the PSEO to the Employer and shall represent a pro rata share of the costs of collective bargaining, contract administration and grievance adjustment during the life of this agreement. This amount shall not include any monies spent in the form of political contributions and shall in no event exceed 100% of the normal PSEO monthly dues so long as the PSEO remains locally-controlled only. Employees who object to such deductions on the basis of bona fide religious beliefs or teachings of a church or religious body of which that employee is a member shall be afforded the opportunity to designate that such amount deducted shall be paid to a non-religious charity mutually-agreed on by the employee and the PSEO. This fair share deduction shall only be made from the paycheck of any bargaining unit employee during those periods of time throughout the term of this Agreement that the PSEO maintains membership of at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the eligible bargaining unit members eligible to join. In the event that the dues-paying membership of the PSEO is less than seventy- five percent (75%) of the bargaining unit members eligible for membership, no such deduction shall be made unless and until the seventy-five percent (75%) requirement is met. The amount withheld shall be remitted to the PSEO within seven (7) days of its being deducted from the employees’ paychecks. The amount deducted shall remain the same until the Employer receives written notice from the PSEO that a different fair share amount should be deducted. 3 The PSEO agrees to notify all employees in the bargaining unit of the existence of the fair share provisions of this Agreement. Such notice shall consist of a posting on the PSEO bulletin boards or documented letter to each covered employee setting forth the following information: 1. Copies of the specific provisions of this Agreement relating to fair share deductions. 2. A statement of the duration of the Agreement. 3. A statement of the amount of fair share deduction to be made. Such notice shall be regularly updated in the event of any change in the amount. 4. The name, address and telephone number of the PSEO official responsible for administering the fair share deduction program. 5. A description of the dispute resolution procedure set forth below including the manner in which objections shall be made. In the event that an employee objects to the fair share deduction made from his paycheck, he shall be afforded the opportunity to complain to the PSEO and the Employer. Such complaint shall be delivered to the PSEO and the Employer and shall state the nature of the objections and the reasons the employee believes the fair share deduction to be improper. Such complaints shall be limited to deductions made within the calendar year the complaint is filed. Once such a complaint has been received by the Employer or the PSEO, each party warrants to immediately notify the other of the existence of the objection and provide a photocopy thereof at the earliest possible date. The employer shall continue to deduct the certified fair share amount from the paycheck of an objecting employee but shall not remit any such sum to the PSEO for any period after the date of the filing of the complaint. All sums deducted thereafter shall be placed in an escrow account independently managed and held pending the resolution of the complaint. Any interest earned as a result of such escrow shall go to the PSEO if the issue is resolved in favor of the PSEO, and all interest earned shall go to the employee if the issue is resolved in favor of the employee. The responsibility for resolving such disputes is vested in the Illinois Public Employee Labor Relations Board or a similarly-constituted state agency. The cost of any such dispute resolution shall be borne by the PSEO. The PSEO agrees to fully cooperate in the investigation of any such complaint including providing the Employer and the objecting party with certified copies of the relevant records of the PSEO concerning fair share deductions. Such material shall be likewise provided to the ISLRB charged with resolving the dispute. Objecting employees and the PSEO shall be afforded notice and the opportunity to be heard at any hearing concerning such complaints. Each party may be represented by counsel of their choosing or elect to proceed without counsel. The PSEO agrees to indemnify the Employer from all proper actions taken by the Employer in making such fair share deductions. The PSEO shall hold the City harmless against any and all costs and damages resulting from the Employer’s proper implementation and administration of the fair share agreement. 4 ARTICLE III – MANAGEMENT RIGHTS SECTION 3.1 ENUMERATED RIGHTS Except as specifically limited by the express provisions of this Agreement, the City possesses the sole right and authority to operate and direct the employees of the City and its various departments in all aspects, including but not limited to, the right to determine its mission, policies and to set forth all standards of service offered to the public; to plan, direct, control and determine the operations or services to be conducted by employees of the City; to determine the methods, means and number of personnel needed to carry out the department’s mission; to direct the working forces; to establish the qualification for employment, to hire, assign or transfer employees within the department for other related functions; to promote, suspend, discipline or discharge, to lay off or relieve employees due to lack of work, funds or for other legitimate reasons; to make, publish, alter and enforce department rules and regulations; to introduce new or improved methods, equipment or facilities; to contract out for goods and services; to schedule and assign work; to establish work and productivity standards; to assign overtime; and to take any and all actions as may be necessary to carry out the mission of the City and its departments in situations of civil emergency as may be declared by the Mayor, the City Manager or Acting City Manager provided that no right enumerated in this Agreement shall be exercised or enforced in a manner contrary to or inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement. SECTION 3.2 DETERMINATION OF AUTHORITY If, at the sole discretion of the Mayor or his designee, it is determined that extreme civil emergency conditions exist, the provisions of this Agreement may be suspended by the City Manager during the time of the declared emergency. Should an emergency arise, the City Manager shall advise the local President of the PSEO, or the next highest officer of the PSEO, the nature of the emergency. SECTION 3.3 AUTHORITY FOR APPOINTMENTS Both the City and the PSEO recognize and accept the authority of the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners as specified at 65 ILCS 5/10-2.1-1, et seq., with respect to the conduct of examinations, original appointment, promotions or conduct of hearings on charges, of applicants for and/or commissioned police officers of the City of Galesburg, Illinois. ARTICLE IV – NON-DISCRIMINATION SECTION 4.1 EMPLOYMENT POLICY Neither the City nor the PSEO shall discriminate against any employee covered by this Agreement in a manner which would violate any applicable federal or state laws because of race, creed, color, national origin, disability, age, sex, veteran’s status, genetic information, or sexual orientation. 5 SECTION 4.2 AGE REQUIREMENT All employees shall be retired at an age outlined in the Illinois State Statutes.

Because the payments for workers compensation benefits are not earnings subject to Federal or State taxes, and th e payments are excludable from earnings for pension fund deductions, the Finance Department may pay for the injury leave in the following manner: (1) Each bi-weekly pay period which occurs during the period of paid injury leave, the officer will receive a check for workers compensation benefits, the amount of which check shall be computed in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Illinois Workers’ Compensation Commission. No deductions of any kind shall be made from this payment. (2) In addition, for each bi-weekly pay period of paid injury leave described above, the officer will receive a check in an amount equal to the difference between the officer’s regular bi-weekly salary and the amount paid as workers compensation benefits per (1) above. The salary paid per this check shall be subject to all applicable deductions and withholding for various taxes. The withholding of Federal and State taxes and mandatory deductions for pension funds of course take precedence over voluntary deductions such as credit union or union dues., etc. SECTION 16.6 DISABILITY LEAVE If an officer becomes disabled as a result of illness, on or off duty injury or pregnancy and is disabled from performing his duty, and if the disability persists for one (1) month or more, the officer may be eligible to receive disability benefits under the police pension fund. Such disability shall be considered disability leave and such officer may be granted a leave of absence from the City’s service for the length of disability. If it appears upon verification by at least three (3) competent medical authorities that the officer will be permanently disabled, the officer must apply for a disability pension upon the request of the Chief of Police to the City Manager. Once an officer has been on leave for thirty (30) months or more, his status as a municipal employee will be governed by current Illinois State Statutes. No officer will be allowed to return to work without a written release from the attending physician. 20 SECTION 16.7 LEAVE OPTIONS Officers shall have the option of using earned accrued sick leave, workers’ compensation leave or disability leave as provided by the police pension fund for leaves under this section, provided that leaves shall not be taken concurrently (only one of the three types may be taken at any one time). SECTION 16.8 BENEFITS WHILE ON LEAVE This section addresses seniority, sick leave, vacation and employment credits while an officer is on a paid and unpaid leave of absence. Insurance benefits while on leave of absence are addressed in Section 18.4 and 18.4A. (1) Seniority, sick leave, vacation and employment credits shall continue to accrue, in the manner and rate prescribed in this contract when an officer is on sick leave (including pregnancy and off-duty injury); such accrual shall continue until all accumulated sick leave has been expended. (2) Seniority, sick leave, vacation and employment credits shall continue to accrue in the manner and rate prescribed in this contract when an officer is on workers compensation leave for a period of not more than one hundred eighty three (183) consecutive days. (3) Seniority, sick leave, vacation and employment credits shall continue to accrue, in the manner and the rate prescribed in this contract, when an officer is on disability leave (including but not limited to: pregnancy, on or off-duty injury or illness) for a period of not more than one hundred eighty three (183) consecutive days. (4) Seniority, sick leave, vacation and employment credits shall cease to accrue when an officer on workers compensation or disability leave in excess of one hundred eighty three (183) days. (5) Seniority, sick leave, vacation and employment credits for an officer granted an unpaid leave of absence shall cease to accrue effective the date an officer begins that unpaid leave of absence. Unless otherwise stated in this Section, seniority, sick leave, vacation and employment credits will begin to accrue, in the manner prescribed, in this contract upon the termination of the leave of absence and the return to duty of the officer. Upon the return of an officer on disability leave, including but not limited to pregnancy, on or off-duty injury or illness, the City will place the officer in a position similar to the duty assignment held prior to the effective date of the disability. SECTION 16.9 FORFEITURE OF BENEFITS Any officer covered by this Agreement who violates Article VI of this Agreement will automatically forfeit any and all covered benefits that he may enjoy. 21 ARTICLE XVII – WAGES SECTION 17.1 GENERAL Effective January 1, 20212018, the pay range and pay steps for the classification of Police Patrol Officer shall be as set forth in the salary schedules attached as Appendix C. Wages shall be adjusted for the term of this Agreement as follows: January 1, 202219 – An additional 2.5% increase January 1, 20230 – An additional 2.5% increase SECTION 17.2 STEPS AND RANGES The normal beginning rate for a new employee will be the minimum rate in the established range for the class or position as specified in the City’s Salary Schedule. However, the City Manager may, in special cases, authorize initial appointment above the minimum. Incremental steps within established salary ranges are to provide a means of recognizing outstanding performance and continued good service. Ordinarily, employees progress from Step A to Step B at the end of one year’s service; then annually on the anniversary date thereafter until the last step in the pay range has been reached. SECTION 17.3 LONGEVITY Each employee covered by this Agreement, shall have the following amounts added to his base wages: Upon 5 years’ service – increase base pay by 2% Upon 10 years’ service – increase base pay by 4% Upon 15 years’ service – increase base pay by 6% Upon 20 years’ service – increase base pay by 8% Upon 25 years’ service – increase base pay by 10% Base pay shall be the hourly rate as referenced in the City’s Classification and Salary Schedule for which the employee is eligible, excluding any other pay adjustment or compensation provided herein. SECTION 17.4 CANINE OFFICER An employee assigned as Canine Officer shall receive three and three-quarter (3.75) hours of additional straight-time pay in each fourteen (14) day pay period, such additional compensation to be used in the calculation of overtime. 22 Additionally, the canine officer shall be entitled to ten (10) hours of canine flex time per month in lieu of kennel time. The canine flex time shall be preapproved by the canine officer’s supervisor. The canine officer shall be allowed to either (1) leave shift early and supplement his normal workday with canine flex time (paid straight-time) or (2) replace a normal eight hour shift. SECTION 17.5 SEVERANCE PAY At the time of the regular retirement from active service under the provisions of the Police Pension Fund or upon separation from the City with a minimum of twenty (20) years of continuous service, all officers shall be entitled to severance pay equal to two (2) weeks’ actual salary. This is a one- time only benefit and credit will not be given for part-time or temporary service. The City will compute severance pay on actual wages rather than base wages. SECTION 17.6 PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS AND DIRECT DEPOSIT If the employee so desires, the Finance Department may make certain deductions from his check. Among these are savings and payments to the credit union, United Way contributions and additional withholding tax. All deductions must be requested in writing, dated, and signed by the employee. Pursuant to the mutual agreement of the parties, the City has implemented a direct payroll deposit program applicable to officers covered by this Agreement. SECTION 17.7 UNIFORM CLEANING The City shall provide each officer the equivalent of two hundred fifty dollars’ ($250.00) worth of dry cleaning services during each fiscal year of this Agreement. Such services will be determined by the Purchasing Division, as per past practices. SECTION 17.8 ACTING PAY An officer who is assigned by the Chief or his designee to perform, and does in fact perform, the duties of a higher-ranking officer for four (4) or more hours on any duty day shall receive one (1) hour of compensatory time off or pay, computed at straight time. SECTION 17.9 FTO PAY An officer who has been certified as a field training officer (FTO) and who is working as an FTO by assignment of the Chief or his design ee, shall receive one (1) hour of compensatory time off or pay, computed at straight time, for each eight (8) hours of assigned FTO duty. ARTICLE XVIII – GROUP BENEFITS SECTION 18.1 GROUP MEDICAL COVERAGE 23 For officers covered by this Agreement, group medical coverage is available from a plan selected by the City Manager, currently the State of Illinois Central Management Services (CMS). Four Pplans, which provide certain basic benefits and comprehensive major medical benefits to age sixty- five (65) will be made available to permanent full-time officers and their dependents and retired employees and their dependents. Plans which provide benefits supplemental to Parts A and B of Medicare are available to the aforementioned persons upon the attainment of age sixty-five (65). These plans of medical coverage available to the officers and their dependents, whether the officer is an active full-time employee or a retired employee, are dictated by the age of the persons involved. Continuation of medical benefits will be offered at group rates to certain eligible employees and beneficiaries whose coverage would otherwise have terminated. Former employees and beneficiaries will pay the premium and must notify the City of their intention to continue the coverage within sixty (60) days beginning on the date that coverage would have terminated under the group health plan. Details of these benefits are further explained in the Employee Health Plan summary plan document. Officers who have been placed on temporary or permanent disability by the Police Pension Fund (including pregnancy or off duty injury leave in excess of one hundred eighty three (183) days) may remain on the City’s group medical plan at the officer’s cost until age sixty-five (65) except as specified in Section 18.3A. SECTION 18.2 PERMANENT FULL-TIME EMPLOYEES AND DEPENDENTS Each plan coverage month begins on the first day of the calendar month. Officers under this contract will be eligible for the group coverage on the first day of the coverage month next following the date that the officer commences to work. If the officer does not enroll all eligible dependents upon the first instance of eligibility for the insurance, dependents may be added at subsequent open enrollment periods. An eligible dependent shall include the insured officer’s spouse and unmarried dependent children, as per the current plan provisions. During the term of this Agreement, employees covered by this Agreement will contribute the monthly amounts specified in Appendix D toward the cost of group health insurance under the City’s plan. In the event that annual premiums for the medical insurance program (health, vision and dental)) increase more than 4.0% for any annual renewal, the amount above the 4.03.5% increase shall be shared pro rata between the City and employee based on the current pro-rata share for the employer and employee under their current healthcare plan. The pro-rata share is shown in Appendix D which outlines the current health insurance contribution rates for the parties. Also during the term of this Agreement, modifications to plan benefits, including but not limited to changes in coverage, deductibles, co-pays, and out-of-pocket maximum payments, may occur as necessary to maintain plan solvency. The city will pay the total premium, less employee contribution, for the employee only for Medicare insurance and for the supplement to Medicare insurance when an employee attains age sixty-five (65), but has not yet retired. 24 SECTION 18.3 HEALTH SAVINGS ACCOUNTS (HSA) For employees who elect coverage under the “High Deductible Plan” the City will make a contribution of $750 for single coverage and $1,500 for family coverage to a Health Savings Account (HSA) for each plan year. Employees who elect coverage under a plan other than the “High Deductible Plan” are not eligible for an HSA and no City contribution will be made. SECTION 18.4 EMPLOYEES ON NON-DUTY RELATED INJURY DISABILITY LEAVE Subject to the Employee Health Plan, an employee on non-duty related injury disability leave may remain in the group medical plan, but the employee must pay the full employee premium and the full dependents’ premium, if any. SECTION 18.4A EMPLOYEES ON DUTY RELATED INJURY/DISABILITY An officer who has been injured/disabled in the line of duty and who has been placed on permanent disability leave shall remain in the group medical plan, and the City will continue to pay the employee’s insurance premium, less employee contribution. Dependent insurance premiums shall be paid in total by the employee (insured/disabled officer). If the officer on such permanent duty related injury disability takes employment elsewhere and is covered by a group medical plan, including major medical benefits, by that employer, health care coverage by the City of Galesburg shall cease. SECTION 18.5 RETIRED EMPLOYEES AND DEPENDENTS Upon retirement or resignation with 20 or more years of service, an officer may retain the same insurance plan he had as a City employee. Unless he exercises his opt-out right under Section 18.6 of this Agreement, the City will bear the cost of the total premium for the employee-only insurance to age sixty-five (65). If an insured person attains the age of sixty-five (65), be it the retired employee or a dependent, then said employee or dependent is eligibl e for coverage as described in the first paragraph of Section 18.1. Any insured person who attains the age of sixty- five (65), be it the retired employee or a dependent, immediately becomes eligible for the supplement to Medicare insurance and all other insurance is terminated in regard to that person. SECTION 18.6 OPT-OUT RIGHT Any employee who is employed and covered by this Agreement as of the date of ratification by both parties shall have the right to opt out of (waive) the City’s obligation to pay the cost of retiree health benefits as provided in Section 18.5. In consideration of such a waiver, the employee shall be entitled to the retirement health benefits provided under the Retiree Health Savings Plan (“RHSP”) set forth in Article XIX. Such waiver rights shall be exercisable during open enrollment periods established at least annually by the City. Once an employee exercises his right to waive the premium payment obligations of the City under Section 18.5, he shall be covered by the provisions of Article XIX and, while retaining an y statutory right that he may have to remain in the group covered by the City health plan, shall no longer be eligible for City-paid health care coverage as provided by Section 18.5. Such opt-out election shall be irrevocable. 25 SECTION 18.7 PSEO AND MANAGEMENT LIABILITY The failure of any insurance carrier to provide any benefit for which it has contracted, shall result in no liability to the City, or to the PSEO, nor shall such failure be considered a breach by the City or PSEO of any obligation undertaken under this or any other Agreement. However, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to relieve any insurance carrier from any liability it may have to the City, PSEO, employee, or beneficiary of any employee. The terms of any contract or policy issued by an insurance carrier shall be controlling in all matters pertaining to benefits thereunder. SECTION 18.8 RIGHT OF CONSULTATION A difference between an employee (or his beneficiary) and the insurance carrier(s) shall not be subject to the grievance procedure provided for in any collective bargaining agreement between the City and the PSEO. The City will, however, designate a representative who will be available for consultation with claimant employees so that a full explanation may be given with respect to the basis of disposition of claims and so that claimants may be assisted by the City in receiving all the benefits to which they are entitled under the terms and conditions of any contract or policy issued by the carrier. SECTION 18.9 HEALTH BENEFITS ADVISORY COMMITTEE One member of PSEO shall be allowed to sit in on all health benefits advisory committee meetings. This will be a non-voting position, however, and said employee will be allowed to give his advice regarding proposed changes in the coverage of City employees. Further, the City shall give proper notice to all members of the committee at least two (2) days prior to said meeting. SECTION 18.10 LIFE INSURANCE During the term of this contract, the City of Galesburg shall provide each full-time officer with a paid ten thousand dollar ($10,000.00) group term life insurance policy while on active duty with the Galesburg Police Department. The City of Galesburg reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to select the insurance company through which such group term life insurance policy is to be issued, and to change the insurance carrier. In this same regard, the City of Galesburg also reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to provide such group term life insurance benefits through its own self-insurance program. When the City of Galesburg’s group term life insurance benefit is provided through an insurance company, the benefit shall be subject to the provision of the policy between the City of Galesburg and the insurance carrier. The failure of any insurance carrier to provide any benefit for which it has contracted shall result in no liability to the City of Galesburg or to the PSEO, nor shall such failure be considered a breach by the City of Galesburg or the PSEO of any obligation undertaken pursuant to this or any other 26 Section in this Agreement. However, nothing contained in this Section shall be construed to relieve any insurance carrier from any liability it may have to the City of Galesburg, the PSEO, an officer, or the beneficiary of an officer. The City of Galesburg and the PSEO shall, as necessary, take appropriate steps to require and obtain contract compliance from the insurance carrier. SECTION 18.11 GROUP DENTAL PLAN For employees covered by this Agreement, a group dental plan is available from a company selected by the City Manager. A plan which provides certain benefits to age sixty-five (65) is available to permanent full-time employees and their dependents. The City will pay the employee’s dental premium. ARTICLE XIX - RETIREE HEALTH SAVINGS PLAN SECTION 19.1 ESTABLISHMENT The City has established a Retiree Health Savings Plan (RHSP) through the ICMA Retirement Corporation (“ICMA-RC”). The City’s participation in the RHSP shall be in accordance with the terms and conditions of the RHSP participation agreement.

For each such new employee and opt-out employee, the City shall contribute on or about the first payroll date in January (“the contribution date”) during each year of this Agreement remaining after the date of ratification of the Agreement by both parties, or upon the successful conclusion of an employee’s probationary period, if later, $1,000 plus .25 percent (one-quarter of one percent) of annual salary as of the contribution date to the employee’s Retiree Health Savings Plan account maintained by ICMA-RC.

Dated: Name: Signature: 32 APPENDIX B – DRUG AND ALCOHOL POLICY DRUG AND ALCOHOL POLICY Section B.1. General Policy Regarding Drugs and Alcohol. The use of illegal drugs and the abuse of alcohol by bargaining unit members present unacceptable risks to the safety and well-being of other employees and the public, invite accidents and injuries, and reduce productivity. In addition, such conduct violates the reasonable expectations of the public that the employees who serve and protect them obey the law and be fit and free from the effects of drug and alcohol abuse. In the interest of employing persons who are fit and capable of performing their jobs, and for the safety and well-being of employees and residents, the City has established a program that will allow the City to take the necessary steps, including drug and/or alcohol testing, to implement a general policy regarding drugs and alcohol. The City of Galesburg and its Police Department have the responsibility to provide a safe work environment. In addition, they have a paramount interest in protecting the public by ensuring that their employees are physically and emotionally fit to perform their jobs while on duty. For these reasons, the abuse of alcohol substances by bargaining unit members is strictly prohibited on duty and, to the extent that such abuse constitutes conduct unbecoming an officer or adversely affects on-duty behavior or job performance, off duty. Violation of these policies will result in disciplinary action up to and including discharge. Section B.2. Definitions. A. “Drugs” shall mean any controlled substance listed in 720 ILCS 570/100 et seq., known as the Controlled Substances Act, for which the person tested does not submit a valid pre-dated prescription. In addition, it includes “designer drugs” which may not be listed in the Controlled Substances Act but which have adverse effects on perception, judgment, memory or coordination. Among the drugs covered by this policy are the following: Opium Methaqualone Psilocybin-psilocin Morphine Tranquilizers MDA Codeine Cocaine PCP Heroin Amphetamines Chloral Hydrate Meperidine Phenmetrazine Methylphenidate Marijuana LSD Hash Barbiturates Mescaline Hash Oil Glutethimide Steroids B. The term “drug abuse” includes the use of any controlled substance which has not been legally prescribed and/or dispensed. 33 Section B.3. Prohibitions. Police officers shall be prohibited from: 1. Consuming or possessing alcohol or proscribed drugs (drugs proscribed by the Controlled Substances Act) at any time during the work day on any of the City’s premises or job sites, including all City buildings, properties, vehicles and the officer’s personal vehicle while engaged in City business. 2. Using, selling, purchasing or delivery of any proscribed drug during the work day or when off duty. 3. Being under the influence of alcohol or proscribed drugs during the course of the work day. 4. Failing to report to their supervisor any known adverse side effects of medication or prescription drugs which they are taking. Violation of these prohibitions may result in disciplinary action, up to and including discharge. Section B.4. The Administration of Tests. The City may require an officer to submit immediately to breathalyzer, blood, and/or urine tests if there is reasonable suspicion for such testing. If an officer is required to undergo such testing based on reasonable suspicion, the City will provide the officer with the basis for such reasonable suspicion in writing at or about the time the test is administered. If the written basis is not provided prior to the actual test, a verbal statement of the basis will be provided prior to administering the test. The City may use breathalyzer tests as well as urine or blood tests for alcohol testing. For drug/alcohol tests not involving a breathalyzer, the City shall use only licensed clinical laboratories and shall have a supervisor accompany the officer being tested to the testing facility. The testing facility shall be responsible for maintaining the proper chain of custody. The taking of urine samples shall not be witnessed unless there is reasonable suspicion to believe the officer is tampering with the testing procedure. If the first test results in a positive finding, a confirmatory test (GC/MS or a scientifically accurate equivalent) shall be conducted. An initial positive result shall not be submitted to the City unless a confirmatory test result is also positive as to the same sample. Upon request, the City shall provide an officer with a copy of any test results which the City receives with respect to such officer. A portion of the tested sample shall be retained by the laboratory so that the officer may arrange for another confirmatory test (GC/MS or a scientifically accurate equivalent) to be conducted by a licensed clinical laboratory of the employee s choosing and at the employee s expense. Once the portion of the tested sample leaves the clinical laboratory selected by the employer from the list maintained by the City, the officer shall be 34 responsible for maintaining the proper chain of custody for said portion of the tested sample. Within two (2) working days after the test is administered, the officer may request a meeting with the Chief. At any such meeting, the officer may raise issues relating to the testing, including the basis for reasonable suspicion. The officer shall also have a one-time only option at this meeting to admit to a drug/alcohol problem and to seek assistance from the City’s Employee Assistance Program (“EAP”). If the employee invokes this option, the test results shall not be made available to the City. Except where the officer invokes the time one-time only option to admit to the problem and to seek assistance from the EAP, the results of any positive tests shall be made available to the City. If an officer tests positive for the use of a proscribed drug, the City may take such action as the City in its discretion deems appropriate, up to and including discharge but also including demotion or reassignment. The first time an officer tests positive for substance abuse involving something other than a proscribed drug, and/or if the officer invokes the one-time only option to admit to the problem and to seek assistance from the EAP, the officer shall be required to enter and successfully complete the EAP, during which time the officer may be required to submit to random testing, as determined by and for the duration specified by the EAP counselor, with the understanding that if the employee again tests positive the City may take such action as the City in its discretion deems appropriate, up to and including discharge. The City in any event retains the right to take such action as the City in its discretion deems appropriate if an employee engages in conduct prohibited by Section B.3 of this Appendix, or in conduct that is otherwise subject to discipline and is aggravated by drug or alcohol abuse. Section B.5. Voluntary Requests for Assistance. Except where there is imminent danger to the life of an employee or others and except where the officer has invoked the one-time only option to admit to the problem and to seek the assistance provided for in Section B.4, above, the administrator of the City ’s EAP shall maintain in strict confidentiality the fact that an employee has voluntarily sought assistance from the City’s EAP. Seeking confidential assistance from the City’s EAP shall not be grounds for disciplinary action; however, the seeking of such confidentiality assistance also shall not insulate an employee from the consequences of engaging in conduct prohibited by Section B.3. Section B.6. Expungement. If an officer is ordered to take a drug or alcohol test pursuant to this Policy, and the findings on either the initial or confirmatory test are negative, the test results as well as all records of and references to the test and/or the order to take the test shall be expunged from the officer’s personnel records. 35 APPENDIX C – SALARY SCHEDULE Personnel Represented by the Public Safety

Safety Employees’ Organization (the “PSEO”). PREAMBLE WHEREAS, the City has voluntarily endorsed the practices and procedures of collective bargaining as a fair and orderly way of conducting its relations with certain of its full-time employees insofar as such practices and procedures do not interfere with the City’s right and obligation to operate effectively in order to best serve the City and its residents and to make clear all basic terms upon which such relationship depends; and WHEREAS, it is the intent and purpose of the parties to set forth herein their entire agreement covering rates of pay, wages, hours of employment and other conditions of employment, and to provide the procedure for the prompt and peaceful settlement of grievances respecting the terms of this Agreement; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and agreements herein contained, the parties do mutually promise and agree as follows: ARTICLE I – RECOGNITION SECTION 1.1 PSEO RECOGNIZED The City voluntarily recognizes the PSEO as the exclusive bargaining agent for the purpose of establishing the wages, hours and terms and conditions of employment for all non-exempt full- time permanent employees in the classification of Police Officer, but excluding supervisory, confidential, probationary and exempt employees and all elected officials or officers of the City. SECTION 1.2 NEGOTIATIONS Each party shall be permitted to have five (5) individuals sit on the negotiating committee provided that not more than one patrol officer and one investigator per shift shall be relieved from duty unless previously approved by the Chief of Police, and such leave shall not interfere with any emergency services. ARTICLE II – PSEO RIGHTS SECTION 2.1 DUES DEDUCTIONS While this Agreement is in effect, the City will deduct twice per month one-half (1/2) the regular monthly PSEO dues for each employee in the bargaining unit for whom there is on file with the City a voluntary effective checkoff authorization as per Appendix A attached. The amounts so deducted shall be forwarded upon each deduction to the appropriate officer of PSEO. The PSEO 2 may change the fixed uniform dollar amount which shall be considered the regular PSEO dues once each year during the life of this Agreement. The PSEO will give the City thirty (30) days’ notice in writing of any such change in the amount of uniform dues to be deducted. The PSEO authorization is revocable by an employee submitting a notice in writing to the City Manager’s Office with a copy to the PSEO. SECTION 2.2 PSEO INDEMNIFICATION The PSEO shall indemnify, defend and save the City harmless against any and all claims, demands, suits or other forms of liability and for all legal costs that shall rise out of or by reason of action taken or not taken by the City in complying with the provisions of this article. Each party agrees to refund to the other any amounts paid in error on account of this dues deduction provision within ten (10) days of notification. SECTION 2.3 PSEO ACCESS One PSEO representative may have access to the premises of the City during a labor dispute in order to help resolve a problem. In order to receive access, the representative must first advise the appropriate supervisor. ARTICLE III – MANAGEMENT RIGHTS SECTION 3.1 ENUMERATED RIGHTS Except as specifically limited by the express provisions of this Agreement, the City possesses the sole right and authority to operate and direct the employees of the City and its various departments in all aspects, including but not limited to, the right to determine its mission, policies and to set forth all standards of service offered to the public; to plan, direct, control and determine the operations or services to be conducted by employees of the City; to determine the methods, means and number of personnel needed to carry out the department’s mission; to direct the working forces; to establish the qualification for employment, to hire, assign or transfer employees within the department for other related functions; to promote, suspend, discipline or discharge, to lay off or relieve employees due to lack of work, funds or for other legitimate reasons; to make, publish, alter and enforce department rules and regulations; to introduce new or improved methods, equipment or facilities; to contract out for goods and services; to schedule and assign work; to establish work and productivity standards; to assign overtime; and to take any and all actions as may be necessary to carry out the mission of the City and its departments in situations of civil emergency as may be declared by the Mayor, the City Manager or Acting City Manager provided that no right enumerated in this Agreement shall be exercised or enforced in a manner contrary to or inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement. SECTION 3.2 DETERMINATION OF AUTHORITY If, at the sole discretion of the Mayor or his designee, it is determined that extreme civil emergency conditions exist, the provisions of this Agreement may be suspended by the City Manager during the time of the declared emergency. Should an emergency arise, the City Manager shall advise the local President of the PSEO, or the next highest officer of the PSEO, the nature of the emergency. 3 SECTION 3.3 AUTHORITY FOR APPOINTMENTS Both the City and the PSEO recognize and accept the authority of the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners as specified at 65 ILCS 5/10-2.1-1, et seq., with respect to the conduct of examinations, original appointment, promotions or conduct of hearings on charges, of applicants for and/or commissioned police officers of the City of Galesburg, Illinois. ARTICLE IV – NON-DISCRIMINATION SECTION 4.1 EMPLOYMENT POLICY Neither the City nor the PSEO shall discriminate against any employee covered by this Agreement in a manner which would violate any applicable federal or state laws because of race, creed, color, national origin, disability, age, sex, veteran’s status, genetic information, or sexual orientation. SECTION 4.2 AGE REQUIREMENT All employees shall be retired at an age outlined in the Illinois State Statutes. SECTION 4.3 EMPLOYEE DISCRIMINATION Neither the City nor the PSEO shall interfere with the right of employees covered by this Agreement to become, or not become, members of the PSEO and there shall be no discrimination against any such employees because of lawful PSEO membership or non- membership activity or status. SECTION 4.4 RESPONSIBILITY OF PSEO The PSEO recognizes its responsibility as bargaining agent. SECTION 4.5 HIRING PRACTICE Only one person from a family shall be initially or subsequently employed as a permanent employee by the City in the same department or division so that they would be working in close proximity on a regular day-to-day basis. For this purpose, a member of a family is defined as a parent, sibling, spouse, and child. The word “spouse” shall include civil partners. SECTION 4.6 GENDER Wherever the male gender is used in this Agreement, it shall be construed to include equally both male and female employees. 4 ARTICLE V – GRIEVANCE PROCEDURE SECTION 5.1 DEFINITION A grievance shall be defined as a dispute arising between the parties during the term of this Agreement concerning a violation, or alleged violation, application or interpretation of this Agreement. SECTION 5.2 TIME LIMIT A grievance must be filed within ten (10) calendar days of its occurrence. All grievances arising out of a safety dispute must be filed within ten (10) calendar days from the Labor-Management Meeting when the dispute was presented, pursuant to Article VIII herein. SECTION 5.3 SCOPE Should any employee, or the union, desire to present a grievance, such grievance shall commence at Step One. Any non-PSEO member may initiate and handle his own grievance without the assistance and/or involvement of the PSEO. SECTION 5.4 PROCEDURE Step One. An employee or the PSEO having a grievance shall meet with the immediate supervisor directly involved. The supervisor shall give an oral answer within ten (10) calendar days after such presentation. Step Two. If the grievance is not settled in Step One and the employee and/or PSEO wish to advance the grievance to Step Two, it shall be referred in writing to the immediate supervisor directly involved within ten (10) calendar days after the supervisor’s oral answer to Step One and shall be signed by the PSEO representative and the aggrieved employee when applicable. The written grievance shall contain a complete statement of the fact, the provision or provisions of this Agreement which the City is alleged to have violated, misapplied and/or misinterpreted and the relief requested. Within ten (10) calendar days of the receipt of the written grievance, the City shall schedule a meeting with the aggrieved officers, when applicable, the Shift Commander(s), if applicable, the Captain of Field Operations and the PSEO Representative, when applicable. If no settlement is reached, the Captain of Field Operations shall provide a written answer within ten (10) calendar days following the meeting. Step Three. If the grievance is not settled in Step Two and the officer and/or the PSEO wish to appeal the grievance to Step Three, it shall be referred in writing to the Chief of Police within ten (10) calendar days after the Captain’s answer in Step Two and shall be signed by the PSEO representative and the aggrieved Officer, when applicable. Within ten (10) calendar days of receipt, the Police Chief shall schedule a meeting with the Captain and/or Shift Commander, the officer, and the PSEO representative, when applicable. If no settlement is reached, the Police Chief shall give the City’s written decision to the PSEO or the aggrieved officer, when applicable, within ten (10) calendar days following their meeting. 5 Step Four. If the grievance is not settled in Step Three and the Officer and/or the PSEO wishes to appeal the grievance to Step Four, it shall be referred in writing to the City Manager within ten (10) calendar days from the Chief’s decision in Step Three, and shall be signed by the aggrieved officer and the PSEO representative, when applicable. The City Manager shall schedule a meeting within ten (10) calendar days with the aggrieved officer, if applicable, the Police Chief, the Captain and/or Shift Commander, the Personnel Officer and the PSEO representative and/or attorney, when applicable. The City Manager shall render his decision in writing within ten (10) calendar days following the meeting. If the matter is not resolved, then the grievance shall be eligible for consideration at the next step. SECTION 5.5 ARBITRATION A. Filing. If the grievance is not settled in accordance with the foregoing procedure, a non- PSEO member or the PSEO may refer the grievance to binding arbitration by forwarding to the City Manager a written notice of intention to proceed to arbitration within ten (10) calendar days after the receipt of the Step Four response. Upon receipt of such notice, the parties shall jointly request the State Labor Relations Board or a similar body to submit a panel of five (5) arbitrators with the appropriate background and experience. Either party may reject one (1) entire panel. Upon receipt of the list of five (5) nominees, the party requesting arbitration shall strike the first name, the other party the second and thereafter the parties shall proceed to alternately strike one name at a time from the list until only one name remains. The nominee whose name remains shall be the arbitrator who shall resolve the grievance. The arbitrator shall be notified of his selection by a joint letter from the parties requesting that he set a time and a place subject to the reasonable availability of the parties. All arbitration hearings shall be held in the City of Galesburg, Illinois, unless the parties mutually agree otherwise. B. Arbitrator’s Authority. The arbitrator shall act in a judicial not legislative capacity and shall have no right to amend, modify, nullify, ignore, add to or subtract from the provisions of this Agreement. He shall only consider and make a decision with respect to the specific issue submitted and shall have no authority to make a decision on any other issue not so submitted to him. The arbitrator shall be without power to make a decision contrary to or inconsistent with or modifying or varying in any way the appl ication of laws and rules having the force and effect of law. The arbitrator shall submit his written decision within thirty (30) calendar days of the close of the hearing or the submission of briefs by the parties, whichever is later, unless the parties agree to a written extension thereof. The decision shall be based solely upon his interpretation of the meaning and/or application of the express terms of this Agreement to the facts of the grievance presented. A decision rendered consistent with the terms of this Agreement shall be final and binding. C. Arbitrator’s Decision. The decision of the arbitrator may be enforced at the insistence of either party or of the arbitrator in the Circuit Court of Knox County, Illinois. If, in the event the arbitrator violates Section 5.5B, either party may file for judicial review in the Circuit Court of Knox County, Illinois. D. Arbitration Costs. The fee and expenses for the arbitrator’s services shall be borne equally by the parties involved in the arbitration. Each party shall be responsible for compensating its own representatives and witnesses and purchasing its own copy of the written transcript; however, the cost of the arbitrator’s copy shall be borne equally by the parties. 6 E. Compensation. One PSEO representative shall be allowed time off from duty with pay to investigate and process grievances. Such time shall not exceed one hour per step except in the case of extenuating circumstances. SECTION 5.6 TIME EXTENSION Extensions of time will be permissible when one of the parties cannot reasonably attend a scheduled meeting. ARTICLE VI – NO STRIKE AND NO LOCKOUT SECTION 6.1 NO STRIKE During the term of this Agreement, neither the PSEO nor its agents or any employee, for any reason will authorize, institute, aid, condone or engage in a work stoppage, strike or any other intentional interference with the work or statutory functions or obligations of the City. SECTION 6.2 NO LOCKOUT During the term of this Agreement, neither the City nor its agents for any reason shall authorize, institute, aid or promote any lockout of employees covered by this Agreement. SECTION 6.3 PSEO RESPONSIBILITY In the event of a violation of Section 6.1 of this Agreement, the PSEO agrees to notify all local officers and representatives of their obligation and responsibility for maintaining compliance with this Agreement, including their responsibility to remain at work during any interruption which may be caused or initiated by others and to encourage employees violating Section 6.1 to return to work. SECTION 6.4 PENALTY The City may file charges with the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners to discharge and/or discipline any employee who violates Sections 6.1 or 6.3, and the PSEO will not resort to the grievance procedure on such employee’s behalf. SECTION 6.5 MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITY Nothing contained herein shall preclude the parties from obtaining judicial restraint and damages in the event of a violation of this Article. 7 ARTICLE VII – HOURS OF WORK AND OVERTIME SECTION 7.1 NO GUARANTEE This Article is intended to define the normal hours of work and to provide the basis for the calculation and payment of overtime. It shall not be construed as a guarantee of hours of work per day or per week or of days of work per week. SECTION 7.2 NORMAL WORKWEEK/WORKDAY Except as provided elsewhere in this Agreement, the normal workweek shall consist of forty (40) hours per departmental calendar week and such additional time as may, from time to time, be required. The normal departmental workweek shall consist of five (5) eight-hour (8-hour) workdays in a seven-day (7-day) period. The FLSA work period is currently fourteen (14) days but is subject to change as per the FLSA guidelines. The Departmental patrol shift schedule is as follows: First shift 0700-1500, second shift 1500-2300, third shift 2300-0700 with officers assigned to report one hour early for the early or “early car” shift at 0600 first shift, 1400 second shift and 2200 third shift. Should the City decide to change the Departmental patrol shift schedule set forth above, the City will notify the union at least sixty (60) days in advance of the proposed change and will give it the opportunity, upon request, to bargain about the changes and reasons for them with the City before such changes are implemented. Any impasse in bargaining under this Section shall be resolved in accordance with Section 14 of the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act. This notification and bargaining obligation shall apply only to changes in the Departmental patrol shift schedule, and shall not apply to changes in the shift schedules of individual officers, which are covered by Section 7.3 below. Notwithstanding the notification and bargaining obligation set forth above, the City retains the right to determine the number of officers assigned to each of the shifts, including the early car shifts. SECTION 7.3 OVERTIME Time and one-half the regular rate of pay will be paid for all authorized time worked as verified by the employee’s supervisor in excess of forty (40) hours in any one departmental calendar week, or in excess of eight (8) hours in any one day when such time is required to be worked by the City. The City shall compute overtime compensation on base pay, longevity pay and schooling pay. Employees shall have the option to receive pay or bank compensatory hours for all overtime earned within the same pay period. With regard to overtime, each officer shall: (1) Be allowed to accumulate a bank up to one hundred sixty (160) hours of compensatory time. (2) Be allowed to carry over into the next fiscal year one hundred sixty (160) hours maximum. 8 Payment up to eighty (80) hours may be requested by the employee as of the first pay period in November of each year of this Agreement. All hours in excess of one hundred sixty (160) hours shall be paid in the pay period in which the excess hours were earned. (3) Be scheduled time off, as directed, for any hours in lieu of overtime if maximum compensatory hours are accumulated. (4) Be allowed to use compensatory hours as per approval of the department or division head or his authorized representative. All hours used shall be in even hourly increments only. SECTION 7.4 CALLBACK PAY An employee called back to duty outside his normal duty schedule, and not immediately preceding or following his regular duty schedule, shall be guaranteed a minimum of two (2) hours work at the overtime rate of pay. SECTION 7.5 STANDBY PAY Any officer, including a detective scheduled for standby, who is required by assignment or directive of the Chief or his designee to remain, while otherwise not actively on duty, within a specific geographic area for a specified period of time, who is required to respond to a call to report for duty, and who is required to be “fit for duty” pending such a call shall be paid thirty dollars ($30.00) for each twenty-four hour (24-hour) day that he is assigned to standby under this provision. The City reserves the right to schedule detectives and other officers for standby and to make changes in the standby schedule. The compensation for standby shall be paid with the wages for the pay period in which the standby pay was earned.

SECTION 9.7 LAYOFF AND RECALL The City, at its discretion, shall determine whether layoffs are necessary. Layoffs shall ordinarily be for a lack of work and/or lack of funds. If it is determined that layoffs are necessary, employees will be laid off in the following order: (a) probationary employees in their original probationary period and (b) in the event of further reduction in force, employees covered by this Agreement will be laid off in the inverse order of their departmental seniority as governed by Illinois State Statutes.

Once the measure of discipline is determined and imposed, the City shall not increase it for the particular act of misconduct unless new facts or circumstances become known. SECTION 11.3 DISCIPLINARY MEETING If an alleged violation falls within the scope of the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners’ jurisdiction, all disciplinary meetings shall be conducted as per the current “Uniform Peace 13 Officers’ Disciplinary Act” of the State of Illinois. The parties agree that such proceedings and decisions thereof shall not be subject to the grievance procedure. If the alleged v iolation is outside the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners’ jurisdiction, such disputes shall be subject to the grievance procedure. All such decisions rendered by either the City or the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners shall be mutually exclusive. ARTICLE XII – PERSONNEL FILES SECTION 12.1 MAINTENANCE The commander of the Galesburg Police Department’s Staff and Services Division shall keep a departmental personnel file for each officer currently appointed to the department. The City Manager’s Office shall also retain a “Central File” for each officer currently appointed to the department. Supervisors may also retain a working file for officers currently assigned to their command. This file will contain job-related information which would be beneficial to the supervisory personnel when completing an officer’s performance evaluation. Upon request of the officer, any written warning retained in the central file may be removed after a four-year (4-year) period providing that there has been no recurrence of the conduct which led to that written warning. As of the effective date of this Agreement, the material maintained in the central file shall be the only material which may be used as the basis of disciplinary action directed toward any officer. All files referenced above shall be considered and treated as confidential. SECTION 12.2 INSPECTION Upon appropriate written request to the City Manager’s Office or the commander of the Galesburg Police Department’s Staff and Services Division, an employee may inspect either or both of his personnel files (the departmental file and the central file) within seven (7) working days subject to the following: inspection shall occur during normal working hours and at a time and in a manner mutually acceptable to the employee and the City.

A personal day must be scheduled with or approved by the officer’s immediate supervisor a minimum of one (1) working day before it is used. If an officer arrives on duty and manpower permits, he may take that day as his personal day without prior scheduling; and, in any event, each personal day is subject to scheduling availability. If at the end of the fiscal year an officer has unused personal days to his credit because one or more requests for use of a personal day has been denied in writing by supervision, then he shall be paid for any such credited but unused personal days within thirty (30) days of the close of that fiscal year. Personal day hours are earned and shall be posted January 1st of each fiscal year. ARTICLE XV – VACATIONS SECTION 15.1 VACATION ACCUMULATION Officers covered by this Agreement shall accrue paid vacation leave up to the maximum accumulation specified herein as of their respective anniversary date. Bi-weekly accrual rates shall be determined by dividing all vacation hours including vacation in lieu of holiday by twenty-six (26). The accumulation (sections a, b, c, and d) includes the extra day’s vacation in lieu of holidays as stated in Section 15.3 a. Zero (0) years through the sixth (6th) year (72 months) of continuous employment, the accrual shall equal one-hundred sixty (160) hours per year, or 6.1538 hours bi-weekly. b.

Beginning the fourteenth (14th) year (157 months) and through the twenty-first (21st) year (252 months) of continuous employment, the accrual shall equal two-hundred fort y (240) hours per year or 9.2307 hours bi-weekly. 15 d. Beginning the twenty-second (22nd) year (253 months) of continuous employment, the accrual shall equal two-hundred eighty (280) hours per year, or 10.7692 hours bi-weekly. Vacation shall be taken the year following its accrual except as provided herein or upon written permission of the Chief of Police. SECTION 15.2 ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS In order to be eligible for a full vacation under Section 15.1, an officer must have full-time status and have been employed by the City for one (1) year. Employees may not be granted vacation leave if it will result in a negative balance on the books unless approved by the Chief of Police. SECTION 15.3 VACATION SCHEDULING Vacation shall be scheduled at times most desired by each officer provided, however, the final right to designate the vacation period is exclusively reserved to the City. One week of annual vacation may be taken in single day multiples. Each officer affected by the vacation time in lieu of holiday provision may take his vacation leave with pay consecutively subject to scheduling availability. Each officer affected by the above provision will receive an extra ten (10) days of vacation in lieu of one (1) paid day off annually for his birthday and for nine (9) paid holidays annually (New Year’s Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Veteran’s Day, Thanksgiving Day, the day after Thanksgiving and Christmas Day). SECTION 15.4 MAXIMUM ACCRUAL Vacation may be accumulated up to a maximum of 280 hours as of January 1 of the calendar year. During January of each calendar year, the City will perform an administrative review of each officer’s accumulated vacation. If that review determines that any officer’s accumulated vacation exceeds 280 hours, that accumulated vacation total shall be reduced to 280 hours. Each officer is expected to monitor his accumulated vacation and to request such vacation time as may be needed to reduce his accumulated vacation total to 280 hours prior to January 1. Officers may also sell back forty hours of vacation time per fiscal year at the officer’s then current rate of pay and have the monies deposited into their ICMA deferred compensation account. This option of vacation time sell back shall only be available to officers who have at least 140 hours of currently accrued accumulated vacation.

ARTICLE XVI – LEAVES SECTION 16.1 GENERAL LEAVE OF ABSENCE Bargaining unit employees shall submit requests for paid or unpaid leave of absence in writing to the Chief of Police for review by the City Manager. The City Manager may grant the request for such leave of absence for good and sufficient reason and shall, at his discretion, set the terms and conditions of the leave, including whether or not the leave is to be paid. The Chief of Police may recommend vacation, injury/workers compensation and/or sick leave with pay. SECTION 16.2 MILITARY LEAVE Military leave shall be granted in accordance with applicable law. SECTION 16.3 JURY DUTY LEAVE Any officer may be granted a leave of absence with pay if called for jury duty. Since it is not the intention of the City that an officer receive more compensation for jury duty than he would if he were performing his normal duties, an amount equal to the jury duty may be deduced from his City pay. The officer may request in writing that the Finance Department not deduct jury pay and then turn in the jury check to the City when received. SECTION 16.4 SICK LEAVE In the event an officer is unable to work by reason of illness, off duty injury or pregnancy, the City may grant paid sick leave to officers with accumulated sick leave available. a. Sick Leave Accumulation: Permanent employees covered by this Agreement may accumulate sick leave at the rate of eight (8) working hours per month to a maximum of 1700 working hours. b. Eligibility: In order to be eligible for paid sick leave, each officer covered by this Agreement agrees to: (1) Report promptly and daily to the Chief of Police or shift supervisor the reason for his absence unless extended by a physician in writing for specific time of absence prior to returning to work. (2) Use sick leave only for personal sickness, injury or exposure to a contagious disease except for point 3 below and to bear the burden of proof of such sickness if required by the City. (3) May also use sick leave with pay for absences necessitated by illness, injury, death or 17 exposure to contagious disease by a member of his immediate family. The presence of the officer must be actually and immediately required for bona fide serious circumstances or emergencies, as determined by the Chief of Police and absences from duty shall not exceed the period of actual need. Immediate family is defined as the following relation to the employee or his spouse: spouse, parent, step-parent, sibling, child, step-child, grandparent, and grandchild. The word “spouse” shall include civil partners. If an employee’s sick leave hours fall below zero, he is no longer eligible for sick leave pay. c. Routine Care: With prior approval and sufficient notice, leave for routine (less than four hours) doctor, dental or other medical appointments shall be charged to the officer’s regular and/or accumulated sick leave in one-hour (1-hour) multiples for the period the officer is off work. d. Certification: If the City has reasonable grounds to believe sick leave is being abused, it may, at its discretion, require any officer requesting paid sick leave to furnish substantiating evidence or a statement from his at tending physician certifying that absence from work was required due to medical reasons. Any officer who is sick for more than three (3) consecutive days may be required to secure and submit a physician’s release certifying that he is fit to return to work. This release must be submitted to the Chief of Police before the officer will be permitted to return to work. e. Sick Leave Bonus: Officers will be given one (1) day’s pay (8 hours) for each consecutive six (6) months’ service (January through June and July through December) in which no sick leave was taken. f. Sick Leave Payout: All officers covered by this Agreement, upon separation from the City with a minimum of twenty (20) years of continuous service, or electing to retire under the provisions of the City’s Police Pension Fund, shall be entitled to receive payment in the amount of 30% of one thousand one hundred twenty (1120) sick leave hours maximum he may have on the official City records in the Finance Department at the time of separation or retirement, to be paid at the actual hourly rate of pay. This applies to retirement and separation with a minimum of twenty (20) years of continuous service, and does not involve separation from City service for any other cause or disability leave. SECTION 16.5 WORKERS COMPENSATION 5 ILCS 345 is incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement. All injuries must be reported in writing as soon as possible or within three (3) days by the officer or his supervisor in order to be eligible for injury leave and also the workers compensation benefits as provided by the City. The officer shall be responsible for causing a report by the attending physician to be submitted to the Risk Manager each time that the officer is examined by the attending physician and every thirty (30) days thereafter. The Risk Manager shall provide forms to the officer for this purpose. Because the payments for workers compensation benefits are not earnings subject to Federal or State taxes, and th e payments are excludable from earnings for 18 pension fund deductions, the Finance Department may pay for the injury leave in the following manner: (1) Each bi-weekly pay period which occurs during the period of paid injury leave, the officer will receive a check for workers compensation benefits, the amount of which check shall be computed in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Illinois Workers’ Compensation Commission. No deductions of any kind shall be made from this payment. (2) In addition, for each bi-weekly pay period of paid injury leave described above, the officer will receive a check in an amount equal to the difference between the officer’s regular bi-weekly salary and the amount paid as workers compensation benefits per (1) above. The salary paid per this check shall be subject to all applicable deductions and withholding for various taxes. The withholding of Federal and State taxes and mandatory deductions for pension funds of course take precedence over voluntary deductions such as credit union or union dues., etc. SECTION 16.6 DISABILITY LEAVE If an officer becomes disabled as a result of illness, on or off duty injury or pregnancy and is disabled from performing his duty, and if the disability persists for one (1) month or more, the officer may be eligible to receive disability benefits under the police pension fund. Such disability shall be considered disability leave and such officer may be granted a leave of absence from the City’s service for the length of disability. If it appears upon verification by at least three (3) competent medical authorities that the officer will be permanently disabled, the officer must apply for a disability pension upon the request of the Chief of Police to the City Manager. Once an officer has been on leave for thirty (30) months or more, his status as a municipal employee will be governed by current Illinois State Statutes. No officer will be allowed to return to work without a written release from the attending physician. SECTION 16.7 LEAVE OPTIONS Officers shall have the option of using earned accrued sick leave, workers’ compensation leave or disability leave as provided by the police pension fund for leaves under this section, provided that leaves shall not be taken concurrentl y (only one of the three types may be taken at any one time). SECTION 16.8 BENEFITS WHILE ON LEAVE This section addresses seniority, sick leave, vacation and employment credits while an officer is on a paid and unpaid leave of absence. Insurance benefits while on leave of absence are addressed in Section 18.4 and 18.4A. (1) Seniority, sick leave, vacation and employment credits shall continue to accrue, in the manner and rate prescribed in this contract when an officer is on sick leave (including pregnancy and off-duty injury); such accrual shall continue until all accumulated sick leave has been expended.

(4) Seniority, sick leave, vacation and employment credits shall cease to accrue when an officer on workers compensation or disability leave in excess of one hundred eighty three (183) days. (5) Seniority, sick leave, vacation and employment credits for an officer granted an unpaid leave of absence shall cease to accrue effective the date an officer begins that unpaid leave of absence. Unless otherwise stated in this Section, seniority, sick leave, vacation and employment credits will begin to accrue, in the manner prescribed, in this contract upon the termination of the leave of absence and the return to duty of the officer. Upon the return of an officer on disability leave, including but not limited to pregnancy, on or off-duty injury or illness, the City will place the officer in a position similar to the duty assignment held prior to the effective date of the disability. SECTION 16.9 FORFEITURE OF BENEFITS Any officer covered by this Agreement who violates Article VI of this Agreement will automatically forfeit any and all covered benefits that he may enjoy.

SECTION 17.6 PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS AND DIRECT DEPOSIT If the employee so desires, the Finance Department may make certain deductions from his check. Among these are savings and payments to the credit union, United Way contributions and additional withholding tax. All deductions must be requested in writing, dated, and signed by the employee.

ARTICLE XVIII – GROUP BENEFITS SECTION 18.1 GROUP MEDICAL COVERAGE Plans, which provide certain basic benefits and comprehensive major medical benefits to age sixty- five (65) will be made available to permanent full-time officers and their dependents and retired employees and their dependents. Plans which provide benefits supplemental to Parts A and B of Medicare are available to the aforementioned persons upon the attainment of age sixty-five (65). These plans of medical coverage available to the officers and their dependents, whether the officer is an active full-time employee or a retired employee, are dictated by the age of the persons involved. Continuation of medical benefits will be offered at group rates to certain eligible employees and beneficiaries whose coverage would otherwise have terminated. Former employees and beneficiaries will pay the premium and must notify the City of their intention to continue the coverage within sixty (60) days beginning on the date that coverage would have terminated under the group health plan. Details of these benefits are further explained in the Employee Health Plan summary plan document. Officers who have been placed on temporary or permanent disability by the Police Pension Fund (including pregnancy or off duty injury leave in excess of one hundred eighty three (183) days) may remain on the City’s group medical plan at the officer’s cost until age sixty-five (65) except as specified in Section 18.3A. SECTION 18.2 PERMANENT FULL-TIME EMPLOYEES AND DEPENDENTS Each plan coverage month begins on the first day of the calendar month. Officers under this contract will be eligible for the group coverage on the first day of the coverage month next following the 22 date that the officer commences to work. If the officer does not enroll all eligible dependents upon the first instance of eligibility for the insurance, dependents may be added at subsequent open enrollment periods. An eligible dependent shall include the insured officer’s spouse and unmarried dependent children, as per the current plan provisions. During the term of this Agreement, employees covered by this Agreement will contribute the monthly amounts specified in Appendix D toward the cost of group health insurance under the City’s plan. In the event that annual premiums for the medical insurance program (health, vision and dental) increase more than 4.0% for any annual renewal, the amount above the 4.0% increase shall be shared pro rata between the City and employee based on the current pro-rata share for the employer and employee under their current healthcare plan. The pro-rata share is shown in Appendix D which outlines the current health insurance contribution rates for the parties. Also during the term of this Agreement, modifications to plan benefits, including but not limited to changes in coverage, deductibles, co-pays, and out-of-pocket maximum payments, may occur as necessary to maintain plan solvency. The city will pay the total premium, less employee contribution, for the employee only for Medicare insurance and for the supplement to Medicare insurance when an employee attains age sixty-five (65), but has not yet retired. SECTION 18.3 HEALTH SAVINGS ACCOUNTS (HSA) For employees who elect coverage under the “High Deductible Plan” the City will make a contribution of $750 for single coverage and $1,500 for family coverage to a Health Savings Account (HSA) for each plan year. Employees who elect coverage under a plan other than the “High Deductible Plan” are not eligible for an HSA and no City contribution will be made. SECTION 18.4 EMPLOYEES ON NON-DUTY RELATED INJURY DISABILITY LEAVE Subject to the Employee Health Plan, an employee on non-duty related injury disability leave may remain in the group medical plan, but the employee must pay the full employee premium and the full dependents’ premium, if any. SECTION 18.4A EMPLOYEES ON DUTY RELATED INJURY/DISABILITY An officer who has been injured/disabled in the line of duty and who has been placed on permanent disability leave shall remain in the group medical plan, and the City will continue to pay the employee’s insurance premium, less employee contribution. Dependent insurance premiums shall be paid in total by the employee (insured/disabled officer). If the officer on such permanent duty related injury disability takes employment elsewhere and is covered by a group medical plan, including major medical benefits, by that employer, health care coverage by the City of Galesburg shall cease. SECTION 18.5 RETIRED EMPLOYEES AND DEPENDENTS 23 Upon retirement or resignation with 20 or more years of service, an officer may retain the same insurance plan he had as a City employee. Unless he exercises his opt-out right under Section 18.6 of this Agreement, the City will bear the cost of the total premium for the employee-only insurance to age sixty-five (65). If an insured person attains the age of sixty-five (65), be it the retired employee or a dependent, then said employee or dependent is eligibl e for coverage as described in the first paragraph of Section 18.1. Any insured person who attains the age of sixty- five (65), be it the retired employee or a dependent, immediately becomes eligible for the supplement to Medicare insurance and all other insurance is terminated in regard to that person. SECTION 18.6 OPT-OUT RIGHT Any employee who is employed and covered by this Agreement as of the date of ratification by both parties shall have the right to opt out of (waive) the City’s obligation to pay the cost of retiree health benefits as provided in Section 18.5. In consideration of such a waiver, the employee shall be entitled to the retirement health benefits provided under the Retiree Health Savings Plan (“RHSP”) set forth in Article XIX. Such waiver rights shall be exercisable during open enrollment periods established at least annually by the City. Once an employee exercises his right to waive the premium payment obligations of the City under Section 18.5, he shall be covered by the provisions of Article XIX and, while retaining an y statutory right that he may have to remain in the group covered by the City health plan, shall no longer be eligible for City-paid health care coverage as provided by Section 18.5. Such opt-out election shall be irrevocable. SECTION 18.7 PSEO AND MANAGEMENT LIABILITY The failure of any insurance carrier to provide any benefit for which it has contracted, shall result in no liability to the City, or to the PSEO, nor shall such failure be considered a breach by the City or PSEO of any obligation undertaken under this or any other Agreement. However, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to relieve any insurance carrier from any liability it may have to the City, PSEO, employee, or beneficiary of any employee. The terms of any contract or policy issued by an insurance carrier shall be controlling in all matters pertaining to benefits thereunder. SECTION 18.8 RIGHT OF CONSULTATION A difference between an employee (or his beneficiary) and the insurance carrier(s) shall not be subject to the grievance procedure provided for in any collective bargaining agreement between the City and the PSEO. The City will, however, designate a representative who will be available for consultation with claimant employees so that a full explanation may be given with respect to the basis of disposition of claims and so that claimants may be assisted by the City in receiving all the benefits to which they are entitled under the terms and conditions of any contract or policy issued by the carrier. SECTION 18.9 HEALTH BENEFITS ADVISORY COMMITTEE One member of PSEO shall be allowed to sit in on all health benefits advisory committee meetings. This will be a non-voting position, however, and said employee will be allowed to give his advice 24 regarding proposed changes in the coverage of City employees. Further, the City shall give proper notice to all members of the committee at least two (2) days prior to said meeting. SECTION 18.10 LIFE INSURANCE During the term of this contract, the City of Galesburg shall provide each full-time officer with a paid ten thousand dollar ($10,000.00) group term life insurance policy while on active duty with the Galesburg Police Department. The City of Galesburg reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to select the insurance company through which such group term life insurance policy is to be issued, and to change the insurance carrier. In this same regard, the City of Galesburg also reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to provide such group term life insurance benefits through its own self-insurance program. When the City of Galesburg’s group term life insurance benefit is provided through an insurance company, the benefit shall be subject to the provision of the policy between the City of Galesburg and the insurance carrier. The failure of any insurance carrier to provide any benefit for which it has contracted shall result in no liability to the City of Galesburg or to the PSEO, nor shall such failure be considered a breach by the City of Galesburg or the PSEO of any obligation undertaken pursuant to this or any other Section in this Agreement. However, nothing contained in this Section shall be construed to relieve any insurance carrier from any liability it may have to the City of Galesburg, the PSEO, an officer, or the beneficiary of an officer. The City of Galesburg and the PSEO shall, as necessary, take appropriate steps to require and obtain contract compliance from the insurance carrier. SECTION 18.11 GROUP DENTAL PLAN For employees covered by this Agreement, a group dental plan is available from a company selected by the City Manager. A plan which provides certain benefits to age sixty-five (65) is available to permanent full-time employees and their dependents. The City will pay the employee’s dental premium. ARTICLE XIX - RETIREE HEALTH SAVINGS PLAN SECTION 19.1 ESTABLISHMENT The City has established a Retiree Health Savings Plan (RHSP) through the ICMA Retirement Corporation (“ICMA-RC”).

Dated: Name: Signature: 31 APPENDIX B – DRUG AND ALCOHOL POLICY DRUG AND ALCOHOL POLICY Section B.1. General Policy Regarding Drugs and Alcohol. The use of illegal drugs and the abuse of alcohol by bargaining unit members present unacceptable risks to the safety and well-being of other employees and the public, invite accidents and injuries, and reduce productivity. In addition, such conduct violates the reasonable expectations of the public that the employees who serve and protect them obey the law and be fit and free from the effects of drug and alcohol abuse. In the interest of employing persons who are fit and capable of performing their jobs, and for the safety and well-being of employees and residents, the City has established a program that will allow the City to take the necessary steps, including drug and/or alcohol testing, to implement a general policy regarding drugs and alcohol. The City of Galesburg and its Police Department have the responsibility to provide a safe work environment. In addition, they have a paramount interest in protecting the public by ensuring that their employees are physically and emotionally fit to perform their jobs while on duty. For these reasons, the abuse of alcohol substances by bargaining unit members is strictly prohibited on duty and, to the extent that such abuse constitutes conduct unbecoming an officer or adversely affects on-duty behavior or job performance, off duty. Violation of these policies will result in disciplinary action up to and including discharge. Section B.2. Definitions. A. “Drugs” shall mean any controlled substance listed in 720 ILCS 570/100 et seq., known as the Controlled Substances Act, for which the person tested does not submit a valid pre-dated prescription. In addition, it includes “designer drugs” which may not be listed in the Controlled Substances Act but which have adverse effects on perception, judgment, memory or coordination. Among the drugs covered by this policy are the following: Opium Methaqualone Psilocybin-psilocin Morphine Tranquilizers MDA Codeine Cocaine PCP Heroin Amphetamines Chloral Hydrate Meperidine Phenmetrazine Methylphenidate Marijuana LSD Hash Barbiturates Mescaline Hash Oil Glutethimide Steroids B. The term “drug abuse” includes the use of any controlled substance which has not been legally prescribed and/or dispensed. 32 Section B.3. Prohibitions. Police officers shall be prohibited from: 1. Consuming or possessing alcohol or proscribed drugs (drugs proscribed by the Controlled Substances Act) at any time during the work day on any of the City’s premises or job sites, including all City buildings, properties, vehicles and the officer’s personal vehicle while engaged in City business. 2. Using, selling, purchasing or delivery of any proscribed drug during the work day or when off duty. 3. Being under the influence of alcohol or proscribed drugs during the course of the work day. 4. Failing to report to their supervisor any known adverse side effects of medication or prescription drugs which they are taking. Violation of these prohibitions may result in disciplinary action, up to and including discharge. Section B.4. The Administration of Tests. The City may require an officer to submit immediately to breathalyzer, blood, and/or urine tests if there is reasonable suspicion for such testing. If an officer is required to undergo such testing based on reasonable suspicion, the City will provide the officer with the basis for such reasonable suspicion in writing at or about the time the test is administered. If the written basis is not provided prior to the actual test, a verbal statement of the basis will be provided prior to administering the test. The City may use breathalyzer tests as well as urine or blood tests for alcohol testing. For drug/alcohol tests not involving a breathalyzer, the City shall use only licensed clinical laboratories and shall have a supervisor accompany the officer being tested to the testing facility. The testing facility shall be responsible for maintaining the proper chain of custody. The taking of urine samples shall not be witnessed unless there is reasonable suspicion to believe the officer is tampering with the testing procedure. If the first test results in a positive finding, a confirmatory test (GC/MS or a scientifically accurate equivalent) shall be conducted. An initial positive result shall not be submitted to the City unless a confirmatory test result is also positive as to the same sample. Upon request, the City shall provide an officer with a copy of any test results which the City receives with respect to such officer. A portion of the tested sample shall be retained by the laboratory so that the officer may arrange for another confirmatory test (GC/MS or a scientifically accurate equivalent) to be conducted by a licensed clinical laboratory of the employee s choosing and at the employee s expense. Once the portion of the tested sample leaves the clinical laboratory selected by the employer from the list maintained by the City, the officer shall be 33 responsible for maintaining the proper chain of custody for said portion of the tested sample. Within two (2) working days after the test is administered, the officer may request a meeting with the Chief. At any such meeting, the officer may raise issues relating to the testing, including the basis for reasonable suspicion. The officer shall also have a one-time only option at this meeting to admit to a drug/alcohol problem and to seek assistance from the City’s Employee Assistance Program (“EAP”). If the employee invokes this option, the test results shall not be made available to the City. Except where the officer invokes the time one-time only option to admit to the problem and to seek assistance from the EAP, the results of any positive tests shall be made available to the City. If an officer tests positive for the use of a proscribed drug, the City may take such action as the City in its discretion deems appropriate, up to and including discharge but also including demotion or reassignment. The first time an officer tests positive for substance abuse involving something other than a proscribed drug, and/or if the officer invokes the one-time only option to admit to the problem and to seek assistance from the EAP, the officer shall be required to enter and successfully complete the EAP, during which time the officer may be required to submit to random testing, as determined by and for the duration specified by the EAP counselor, with the understanding that if the employee again tests positive the City may take such action as the City in its discretion deems appropriate, up to and including discharge. The City in any event retains the right to take such action as the City in its discretion deems appropriate if an employee engages in conduct prohibited by Section B.3 of this Appendix, or in conduct that is otherwise subject to discipline and is aggravated by drug or alcohol abuse. Section B.5. Voluntary Requests for Assistance. Except where there is imminent danger to the life of an employee or others and except where the officer has invoked the one-time only option to admit to the problem and to seek the assistance provided for in Section B.4, above, the administrator of the City ’s EAP shall maintain in strict confidentiality the fact that an employee has voluntarily sought assistance from the City’s EAP. Seeking confidential assistance from the City’s EAP shall not be grounds for disciplinary action; however, the seeking of such confidentiality assistance also shall not insulate an employee from the consequences of engaging in conduct prohibited by Section B.3. Section B.6. Expungement. If an officer is ordered to take a drug or alcohol test pursuant to this Policy, and the findings on either the initial or confirmatory test are negative, the test results as well as all records of and references to the test and/or the order to take the test shall be expunged from the officer’s personnel records. 34 APPENDIX C – SALARY SCHEDULE Personnel Represented by the Public Safety Employees' Organization Range Step A Step B Step C Step D Step E Step F Step G Step H Step I 19 P 27.29 27.97 28.67 29.38 30.12 30.87 31.63 32.43 33.24 35 APPENDIX D – HEALTH INSURANCE CONTRIBUTION RATES ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Prepared by: BAN Page 1 of 1 CITY OF GALESBURG COUNCIL LETTER May 17, 2021 AGENDA ITEM: 2021 Classification and Salary Schedule for Police employees.
