MEETING DATE: April 30, 2002
AGENDA MEMO DATE: April 22, 2002
REQUESTED ACTION: Consider an Amendment to Municipal Ordinance 99-45,
Section 21-75 changing Grade I and Grade III positions.
RECOMMENDATION
Council consideration of an amendment to Municipal Ordinance 99-45, Section 21-75 changing
Grade I Positions from 195 to 196 and Grade III positions from 11 to 10.
BACKGROUND
As of March 31,2002, Grade III Lieutenant Steve Basil retired.In keeping with the reorganization
within the Police Department that began with the October 1997 collective bargaining agreement,a
reduction of the Grade III position is needed. By reducing this position and increasing the Grade I
position, this will accurately reflect the current organization of the Police Department as well as
allow the utilization of the police specialist positions in the Criminal Investigations Division.
BUDGETARY IMPACT
The current annual pay for one Grade III Lieutenant is $56,064. The annual pay for one Grade I
Patrolman is $33,552 which is a positive budget impact of$22,512.

Mr. Stephen Bonczek
City Manager
P. O. Box 3827
Beaumont, Texas 77704
Dear Mr. Bonczek,
On March 31, 2001, Grade III Lieutenant Steve Basil retired. I am therefore requesting
that the City Ordinance Section 21-75 be amended reducing the number of positions in the
Grade III category by one from 11 to 10 and reallocating that position into the Grade I category
increasing it from 195 to 196. With the elimination of this position I do not foresee any further
requests for reduction in the Grade III rank. As with previous requests, it is in keeping with the
reorganization of the Police Department that began with the October 1997 contract and has
continued in the current collective bargaining agreement. Furthermore it allows for the utilization
of the police specialist positions in the Criminal Investigations Division.
Below is a summary of the changes in proposed personnel allotments:
Current: Proposed:
Grade 1 195 196
Grade II 53 53
Grade III 11 10
Grade IV 3 3
Deputy Chief 2 2

TO: City Council
FROM: Stephen J. Bonczek, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Kirby Richard, Central Services Director
MEETING DATE: April 30, 2002
AGENDA MEMO DATE: April 24, 2002
REQUESTED ACTION: Council approval to award a contract for fire, flood and extended
coverage insurance.
RECOMMENDATION
Administration recommends award of a proposal to the Texas Municipal League Intergovernmental
Risk Pool(TML-IRP)for the purchase of a one(1)year fire, flood and extended coverage property
insurance policy. The annual premium of$3 58,009 provides an all risk peril policy for the City's total
building value of$103,069,932.
BACKGROUND
Five(5)proposals were received on Monday,April 22,2002,for furnishing a one(1)year fire,flood
and extended coverage insurance policy. Proposals varied in cost and coverage,however proposals
allowed for variations to the requested limits based on the uncertain conditions of today's insurance
market.
Nationwide increases in cost for insurance began in early 2001 because of a declining stock market.
In June 2001,Tropical Storm Allison caused extensive damage in the Gulf Coast region and millions
of dollars in insurance claims. The insurance market incurred billion dollar losses after the destruction
of the World Trade Center. All of these factors are negatively affecting insurance rates for both the
public and private sector.
The proposals received ranged in cost from $153,273 to $560,000 and most deviated from the
requested coverage. One proposal excluded windstorm, three excluded flood coverage and placed
limits on losses. TML-IRP provided a proposal for the total property value stated and included
coverage for windstorm, fire, and flood damage.
