REPORTS OF COMMITTEES
Councilman Frederick reported that the Council's representatives,
Councilmen McElhaney and Frederick, City Manager Sailors and City Attorney
Bush, had met in the Mayor's office at 7: 00 p. m. Monday, June 21 with re-
presentatives of the Firemen's Association, Policemen's Association and the
Employees' Association representing other than the uniformed services. The
eight points listed in the joint communique from the Police and Fire Associations
were discussed as follows:
Item #1. This concerned the City's action in reducing life insurance
for retire�mployees . The complete story and the background furnished by
the actuarial study was presented and it was the concensus of the employee
representatives that they would like to see the City do whatever is possible
to restore the life insurance that was taken away from the present retirees.
They agreed after hearing the financial projection of future costs that it was
hardly feasible for the City to continue retiree insurance for other employees.
It was brought out during the discussion that it would probably be impossible
for the City to back -track on this decision due to the fact that this insurance
has expired and any additional coverage would require thorough physical
examinations by the thirteen retirees.
Item #2. Discussion of the City's reduction in contribution toward
life insurance coverage of current employees. It was pointed out that by the
separation of the retirees insurance coverage into a separate account, it
helped reduce the cost to the current employees for their coverage. There
will be an insurance committee appointed to discuss the entire employee
insurance program. It was recommended that the insurance committee take
a look at the group life coverage that is available through the Police and
Firemen's Associations.
X 1942
Item #3. Clarification was requested re Section 7B of the Civil
Service rice #586. The question was asked,what was meant by
"Open Examination". This was answered by the City Manager who worked
with the employee committee which drafted the present ordinance and the
understanding is that if an open examination is called, outside applicants
may appy. The Police Association asked for copies for their files of the
standard requirements for promotion to each grade and this has been ac-
complished.
Item #4. Clarification of Ordinance #586, Section 20, pertaining
to PoliticalAivity. The City Attorney pointed out that regardless of what
this section says, any superseding state law or court decree would always
take precedence and that he would have copies of the current guide court
decisions made up for distribution to these employee associations.
Item #5. Discussion of overtime and the change from time and
one -half to is ar ight time. After much discussion, it was suggested that the
Council be asked to consider reinstating time and one -half for overtime for
all hazardous duties in the Police and Fire Departments and for all
emergency duties in the Public Works and other outside employees, and
the schedule of straight time be established for other types of overtime.
Item #6. Apparently it was intended to state their opposition to a
revision in t e olice Reserve program. This was discussed at great
length and there were no conclusions reached.
Item V. The employee groups recommended to the Committee
that we do everything possible to maintain the same level of service from
all departments that have been rendered in the past.
Item #8. It was decided that the remaining conditions of employ-
ment to be proposed by the various associations be deferred until August.
Since it was felt that the above matter should be considered in con-
junction with the adoption of the budget, the committee report was accepted
at this time and discussion was deferred until later in the meeting when the
adoption of the budget would be considered.

DIRECTOR OF PtiBLIC WORKS WEBB MADE REPORTS AS FOLLOWS:
1. Presented for the Council's consideration a request from the Los
Angeles County Flood Control District, for approval of specifications, File
No. 176. 07, for the construction of observation wells for Unit 2B for the West
Coast Basin Barrier Project, for which bids will be received on July 23, 1965.
All wells involved are located within Standard Oil refinery areas. Mr. Webb
recommended that the specifications be approved and that the District be
granted the customary routine permission to occupy and use the public streets
in the City of El Segundo for this construction. Motion was made by Council-
man McElhaney, seconded by Councilman Frederick that the specifications for
construction of observation wells for Unit 2 -B of the West Coast Basin Barrier
project be approved and that permission be granted the Los Angeles County
Flood Control District to occupy and use the public streets within the City of
E1 Segundo for this construction. Motion carried.
2. Reported that an 8 -inch water meter had been installed for the
Los Angeles County Flood Control District on the southerly side of E1 Segundo
Boulevard approximately 500 feet west of Sepulveda. This installation was paid
for by the Los Angeles County Flood Control District.
The District proposes to use a flow of approximately 4 cubic feet
per second through this meter for testing purposes in connection with the re-
charge of the underground basin. This activity is of an experimental nature
and would last for a period of approximately two years. This is a continuation
of the experimental part of the Barrier program that has been conducted by the
District for several years. In order to furnish water through the E1 Segundo
Water system to the District for experimental purposes for two years, it was
recommended that the price of water to the District be the same price that the
City of E1 Segundo must pay to the West Basin Municipal Water District for
water designated for "replenishment purposes only". This rate is the same
rate the City has charged the District for several years for water furnished for
the Barrier program in the City of Manhattan Beach.
Motion was made by Councilman Kimport, seconded by Councilman
McElhaney, that the recommendation of the Director of Public Works as stated
above be approved. Motion carried.
