Page 7433
I have this night demanded of Mr Bacon and Mr Phillips that they deliver to me, a
Councilman of the City of Livonia, a copy of the Budget which was delivered to the
Clerk on September 15th Both Mr Bacon and Mr Phillips have refused to deliver to
me a copy of that Budget Mr Bacon says that ne doesn't have a copy to give to me
for the reason that he gave the copies back to whoever delivered them to him. Mr
Phillips states to me that he does have a copy of it and I formally here and now demand
of Mr Phillips that he deliver to me, a Councilman, a copy of the Budget. If I have
made any error in my statement, I am willing to be corrected by Mr. Bacon or Mr
Phillips, who are both here. If my statement is accurate and if Mr Phillips refuses
to deliver to me a copy of the Budget he now has, I will introduce a resolution
directing the Legal Department to institute proceedings to obtain the Budget that
was delivered to tne Clerk on September 15th

By Councilman Pinto, seconded by Councilman Ventura and unanimously
adopted, it was

by Bernard Edelman, regarding the improvement of Hix Road with a 43-foot

lying adjacent to Melody Manor Subdivision, the Council does hereby refer
the same to the Streets, Roads and Plats Committee for its report and
recommendation.
By Councilman Ventura, seconded by Councilman Dooley and unanimously
adopted, it was
#884-65 RESOLVED that, the City Council has considered the report of the
Civil Service Commission, dated August 18, 1965, forwarding resolutions of
the Commission (adopted on August 17, 1965), which amongst other things
recommends (1) . the establishment of a new classification of Public
Safety Officer in the Police Division; and (2) the establishment of
new salary rates for all classifications in the Fire and Police Divisions
of the Department of Public Safety, further, and in connection with this
proposal, the Council has considered and observed the following matters
(1) The Commission states as its reason for resorting to such a
program "that such a program is currently the only way to provide
the City of Livonia with adequate police and fire protection
within funds available now and in the next several years" This is
observed as an unwarranted presumption since the Commission must have
known on August 17, 1965, of the election to be held on September 14,
1965, seeking an additional one mill for additional police protection.
In any event, the very basis for the program would now appear mitigated,
if not eliminated, since the additional one mill levy was approved
making approximately S350,000 extra funds available in future years
for additional police protection
(2) The Commission states in its August 17, 1965, resolution that it had
"Intensively studied the public safety functions of the City in the
last several weeks" That statement appears somewhat incongrous with
other portions of the resolution which indicate that the Public
Safety Officer proposal was first received on August 4, 1965, and
approved by the Commission within one week, on August 10, 1965
(3) The report of the Director of Public Safety, made and submitted tote
Council on September 8, 1965, indicated amongst other things that
resort to the program was prompted by lack of funds which caused
police resignations, an insufficient number of policemen and low
wages Since that report, the additional one mill levy has been
approved and as stated above this mitigates substantially, if not
entirely, the reasons given by the Director as prompting such
program
Page 7438
(4) The report of the Director of Public Safety and the report of the Com-
mission leave many questions unanswered regarding the administration
of the proposed program, i e. ,
(a) At what point does the general 7% pay increase become effective
for all other personnel in the divisions? . . . when the classifi-
cation is approved . when the first application is approved
etc . If an insufficient number of public safety applications are
received, do all other personnel retain the 7% increase?
(b) What is the basis for presuming that any and all firemen are
qualified automatically to b4come Public Safety Officers in the
Police Division and to perform all ordinary functions of Police
officers without first meeting the established test standards
for policemen?
(c) Does the Public Safety Officer vehicle receive its orders from
the Police Chief or the Fire Chief? What determines the priority
of command?
(d) Does a policeman or a fireman, retaining that classification,
ever become qualified for promotion? -- Noting here that the Public
Safety Officer is a classification only in the Police Division.
(e) Why are the classifications of the firemen and policemen being
retained at all -- if the intent of the program is to create
dual purpose safety officers?
(f) This program contemplates replacing the already resigned police-
men with firemen who apply for the position of Public Safety
Officer Is it this savings in salary that makes the 7% increase
available?
(g) Have legal opinions been obtained indicating that promotions to
the rank of Public Safety Officer can be made without competitive
promotional examination and that new employees can be hired as
Public Safety Officers without first being promoted from the rank
of policeman and fireman? The Civil Service Commission resolution
refers to Public Safety Officer as a promotion from the rank of
policeman or fireman
(h) What is the effect of this proposed program on "the block system"
created by Charter to govern promotions in the Fire Department?
These questions and many others neither raised nor answered in the
reports of either the Director or the Commission, which may indicate that there
are problems which have not been considered. Since the proposed program relates
most directly to the quality of law enforcement and fire protection in the
City, this Council must be assured that the program has been thoroughly
reviewed from every vantage point, that it can and will be properly administered
that it will not reduce either the stability or quality of public safety
protection, and that it will not result in a "discount" type of police and
fire protection which reduces present standards.
(5) The personnel of both the Fire and Police Divisions have almost
unanimously written and voiced objections to the proposed program.
Indeed, only the Mayor, Civil Service Commission and the Director
endorsed the program--none of whom are trained fire and police
administrators Neither the Police Chief nor the Fire Chief has re-
commended the program to the best knowledge of the Council Since
the program purports to provide an automatic 7% increase for all fire
and police personnel, their objections certainly cannot be presumed
to be self serving The force, extent and scope of these objections
create a reasonable doubt regarding the implementation of this program
Page 7439
in any event at this time without great dissension, further resignations
and a general lowering of morale in the divisions. It occurs to the
Council that an orientation program shall have been undertaken by
either the Commission or the Director to fully acquaint personnel with
the merits, if any, of the proposed program. Certainly this would
have to be done at some time.
Based upon the above considerations and observations, this Council cannot,
at this time, agree with the implementation of the proposed Public Safety
program, rather, the proposal is referred back to the Civil Service Com-
mission for its further review and report relative to each consideration
and observation noted in this resolution
By Councilman McNamara, seconded by Councilman Ventura, it was
#885-65 RESOLVED that, the Council being cognizant of the failure of
certain City administrative officials to act in compliance with the action
taken by the City Council on August 4, 1965, in its resolution #768-65,
wherein certain salary increases for designated personnel in the classified
service were authorized, the actual salary payments at the new rates to be
made at the earliest possible date, the Council does hereby request that
the Department of Law institute such legal proceedings as may be necessary
in order to effectuate the intent and purpose of the aforesaid resolution.
A roll call vote was taken on the foregoing resolution with the following result•
AYES• McNamara, McCann, Ventura, Pinto, Milligan and Dooley
NAYS• Kleinert.
The President declared the resolution adopted.
By Councilman Pinto, seconded by Councilman Milligan and unanimously
adopted, it was
#886-65 RESOLVED that, since the Department of Law has determined the 4%
salary increase for Department of Public Safety personnel is ineffective,
having considered the report made and written by the Director of Public
Safety on September 8, 1965, indicating amongst other things insufficient
funds in the Police Budget resulting in low wages and an inadequate number
of policemen and an additional one (1) mill tax levy for police protection
purposes having been approved at a Special Election on September 14, 1965,
the Council therefore requests the Civil Service Commission to immediately
submit its new recommendation for an improved salary schedule in the Police
Division, and the Council urges that this be done as soon as possible, since
an improved schedule is likely to increase the number and quality of
applicants.
By Councilman Dooley, seconded by Councilman Pinto, it was
#887-65 RESOLVED THAT, HAVING reviewed the resolution of the Civil Service
Commission, adopted at their 397th regular meeting on June 1, 1965, and
confirmed at their 398th meeting on June 8, 1965, relative to classifications
in the Detective Bureau, the Council does hereby concur with said action as
follows•
Page 7440
i) that a new classification of Detective Captain at Salary Grade 133
with a range of $7820.80 to $8486 40 with two years to maximum be
established.
2) that the present position of Dective Lieutenant be reclassified to
Detective Captain.
3) that the present positions of Sergeant in the Detective Bureau be
reclassified to Lieutenant with a salary range of S7134 to S7737.60.
4) that the present positions of Corporal assigned to detective work
and identification work be reclassified to Sergeant with a salary range
of S6510.40 to S7009.60,
Provided, however, that provisions be made administratively within the
Police Department so that the police officers of lesser rank transferred into
the Detective Bureau for training and experience shall not be promoted to the
position of Sergeant until such time as they may be fully qualified to fill
the position of Sergeant in that bureau, that changes as confirmed herein
be effective at the start of the first pay period following the effective
date of this resolution, and that if additional funds are required to provide
for these changes to complete the present fiscal year, the Budget Director
is directed to so advise the Council without delay.
Councilman Ventura made the following statement I am not opposed to the granting
of pay raises in the Detective Bureau, but I am opposed to the changing of the
classification, that is in rank.
By Councilman McCann, seconded by Councilman Ventura, it was
RESOLVED that, the matter of salary schedule for the Detective
Bureau be tabled at this time.
