12% towards pension costs. The tentative agreement reached with IAFF <br /> increases contributions of "Classic Members" by an additional .5% in July of 2020 <br /> for a total of 12.5%. <br /> Medical Contributions for Active Employees: <br /> Currently active employees pay a minimum of $25 per month towards medical <br /> premiums. Effective in January of 2020 all active employees will pay a minimum <br /> contribution of $50 per month for family coverage. <br /> Paramedic License Maintenance Pay: <br /> Currently, Firefighter Paramedics who promote to the positions of Fire Engineer <br /> and Fire Captain are no longer required to maintain their paramedic licenses as <br /> paramedicine is not a core function of the new ranks. However, some Firefighter <br /> Paramedics voluntarily decide to keep and maintain their paramedic licenses and <br /> will assist with paramedicine as appropriate. The tentative agreement allows for <br /> compensation of $100 per month for those Firefighter Paramedics who <br /> voluntarily keep and maintain their paramedic licenses when promoted to the <br /> ranks of Fire Engineer and Fire Captain. <br /> Other Changes: Agreements to language changes were also reached in many other <br /> areas of the MOU and are operational in nature and have no cost implications. A red- <br /> lined copy of the complete draft MOU is included for your review. <br /> CONCLUSION <br /> This report introduces the key elements of the successor MOU with the International <br /> Association of Firefighters, Local 1974 representing non-management sworn fire <br /> personnel of the Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department. All agreements reached <br /> between the parties during the meet and confer process are tentative until the contract, <br /> in its entirety, is ratified by members of IAFF (this was completed in November) and <br /> approved by the City Councils of both Livermore and Pleasanton. It is the City of <br /> Pleasanton's practice to introduce the key elements of the proposed contract to allow <br /> for open discussion prior to Council action at a future meeting. <br /> Sub'i e• by: Fis al eview: Approvld by: <br /> / 1 <br /> be.ra Gill Tina Olson Nelson Fialho <br /> Director of Human Resources/ Director of Finance City Manager <br /> Labor Relations <br /> Attachment: <br /> 1 .
