COMPENSATION REQUESTS <br />POLICE AND FIRE DEPARTMENTS (Continued) <br /> <br />The motion to approve the City Manager's report was adopted on the following roll <br />call vote: <br /> <br />AYES: Patterson, Yamamoto, Villa, Griset <br />NOES: Herrin, Markel <br />ABSENT: Evans <br /> <br />SPECIAL ELECTION It was moved by Councilman I-Ierrin, <br /> and seconded by Councilman Markel, <br />to place a measure on the June Primary Ballot to determine if the Police and Fire <br />retirement program should be changed to 2% at age 50 (California Highway Patrol <br />Plan). <br /> <br />In the discussion that followed, Mr. Silvers indicated that the Association would <br />prefer the measure be carried on the November General Election ballot. Mr. <br />Montejano stated that the Council was acting hastily, and that the Police Association <br />position favored a decision on the retirement matter by the Council instead of taking <br />it to the voters; that it was his understanding that the Administration was undertaking <br />a cost study of the 2% at age 55 retirement program and the Association had agreed <br />to this study. <br /> <br />Councilman Patterson's motion to postpone the vote on the motion to place a <br />measure on the June ballot to the Regular Council Meeting of February 22, 1972, <br />was seconded by Councilman Herrin and carried on a 5 - 1 vote, with Councilman <br />Villa dissenting. <br /> <br />ADJOURNMENT The meeting was adjourned at 8:20 P.M. <br /> on motion of Councilman Herrin, <br />seconded by Councilman Villa, and unanimously carried. <br /> <br />Florence I.
