Hwang, Chief of Police SUBJECT: Pierce Transit Extra Duty Police Services Agreement—Amendment No. 1 Financial Impacts: There should be no financial impacts. Pierce Transit is reimbursing the City of Federal Way for Police Officer overtime (extra duty) worked specific hours at the Transit Center or where needed. Background Information: In 2018 Pierce Transit requested Federal Way Police Officers to work extra duty at various Pierce Transit stations,vehicles,bus routes,bus stops,facilities and properties in Federal Way,Washington. The term of the agreement was from June 1, 2018 through December 31, 2018. Pierce Transit requested an Amendment to this agreement to extend the date through December 31, 2019. Pierce Transit agreed to pay an overtime rate of$71.27 per hour for each officer working in 2018 and beginning in January 2019 the hourly rate shall increase by the same percentage of pay increase given to the Police Guild Officers. The extra duty hours would be three (3) hours in the early morning and (3)hours in the evening. The officers would be working off duty hours so this would not impact the police services for the Federal Way Police Department; it would in fact enhance our services since Federal Way Officers would be working, in uniform, at various Pierce Transit sites and facilities. 1 I I RETURN TO: W .�;c EXT: ;1 01 CITY OF FdEDERAL WAY LAW DEPARTMENT ROUTING FORM .
