GRIEVANCE - HILLICK - CARMAN: The Clerk read the following letter: To: Board of Public Works - RE: Grievances of William Hillick and Adam Carman "The undersigned Arbitrator's Committee approved the grievance of William Hillick and recommend reimbursement to him of three months' insurance payment in the total amount of $103.65. We also approved the grievance of Adam Carman and recommend repayment to him of one month's insurance premium in the amount of $34.55. We denied the grievance of Adam'.:Carman with respect to the reimburse- ment of sick leave. We agree with the memo from the Superintendent pointing out the City ordinances which require that compensation be charged against sick leave. 43/7 We recommend that each and every City Employee be considered 'on the payroll" for the payment of insuranceremiums, unless and until they are (a) discharge4, (b) resign, and (c) are on a leave -of -absence re- quested by the employee. Sgd: Richard Putney Bernard J. Carpenter Matie S. Schmaus Controller Russell reviewed the rules of procedure governing the New York State Health Insurance Plan in which the City had participated since 1958. He referred to paragraphs 3 and 4 of Article V1 of the Bar- gaining Agents' Agreement between the City and the Laborers' Union re- garding grievance procedures. He questioned the Board's right to choose Commissioner Putney to represent the City in these grievances and felt it was unfair to the City to have Commissioner Putney represent it. He suggested that no action be taken on the report pending a review of the matter by the City Attorney. Mayor Conley suggested referring it to the City's Negotiators for further review. The Clerk pointed out that the Council, by resolution dated December 23, 1958, elected to participate in the State Employees' Health Insurance Program for all of its officers and employees and therefore questioned the Board's right to make any changes in the rules regarding employees of the Board since it ob- viously could not speak for all. He suggested that changes as sug- gested in the foregoing letter should be presented to Council for final action. By Commissioner Downing: Seconded by Commissioner Clynes RESOLVED, that the matter be referred to the Common Council for review and direction. Carried. HILLICK-CARMAN GRIEVANCE: Attorney Gersh reported the Laborers' Union had filed a com- plaint with PERB because the City had not complied with the Arbitrators' decision in this grievance. He reviewed the steps already taken leading up to Mr. Putney's ap- t pointment by the Board to represent the City. He felt the Board did not have such �/ .3/72* authority and therefore the City did not have a legally appointed arbitrator to represent! it. He gave his opinion that the authority for making such an appointment rested solely with the Common Council, the legislative body of the City. • HILLICK-CARMAN GRIEVANCE: Attorney Gersh reported a compromise had been reached with the Laborers' Union in the matter of the Hillick-Carman grievance and that the complaint in the matter filed with PERB had been withdrawn. He recommended the Board take some official action approving a compromise with the understanding that their grievance be subject to negotiation in future wage agreements. By Commissioner Leary: Seconded by Commissioner Golder. RESOLVED, that the Board recommends to Common Council that the CityvAttorney be authorized to enter into an agreement with the Laborers' Union which will compromise the Hillick- Carman grievance and similar grievances until December 31, 1972, the expiration date of all bargaining agents' agreements with the City.
