Page 18
This MOU contains all of the covenants, stipulations, and provisions agreed upon by the parties.
Therefore, for the term of this MOU, neither party shall be compelled, and each party expressly
waives its rights to request the other to meet and confer concerning any issue relating primarily to
matters within the scope of representation, except as expressly provided herein or by mutual
agreement of the parties. No representative of either party has the authority to make, and none
of the parties shall be bound by, any statement, representation or agreement which is not
embodied in this MOU.
Subject to the paragraph above, this section shall not be construed to prevent the Newport Beach
Police Department from giving notice to the Association and affording the Association the
opportunity to meet and confer on the impact of policy changes or the exercise of management
rights. However, the terms of this MOU may not be modified through the impact negotiations
process; except by mutual agreement.

constitutes harassment, discrimination or retaliation on the basis of any protected class under the
law or other statutorily or constitutionally impermissible basis, or any pornographic or obscene
material.
H. NO STRIKE
The parties recognize their mutual responsibility to provide the citizens of Newport Beach with
uninterrupted municipal services and, therefore, the parties agree not to conduct concerted strike,
work slowdown, sick out, withholding of services, or lockout activities.
I. SAVINGS
If any provision of this MOU shall be held invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, or if
compliance with or enforcement of any provision shall be restrained by court action, or other
established governmental administrative tribunal, the remainder of this MOU shall not be affected,
and the parties shall replace such invalidated provision with another of similar or equal value
through the negotiations process.
J. IMPASSE
In the event of an impasse (the failure to agree on a new MOU after the express term of the
existing MOU has expired), the parties may agree on mediation pursuant to the procedure
outlined in Section 16 of Resolution No. 2001-50.

recognition of constructive receipt based on the earning of CTO, this MOU will
reopen on the issue of CTO and the parties will meet and confer over elimination
of constructive receipt. The parties understand that, if the IRS determines there is
additional tax liability, that liability will be the responsibility of the individual
taxpayers (employees).
b. Effective the first full pay period following City Council adoption in FY 2021-22,
CTO will be maintained in two banks (one for FLSA Overtime and one for MOU
Overtime). When paid out, CTO earned on MOU overtime will be paid out at the
MOU overtime rate and CTO earned on FLSA overtime will be paid out at the
regular rate.
4. An employee wishing to use his/her accrued compensatory time off,shall provide the City
with reasonable notice. Reasonable notice is defined as at least two (2) weeks. If
reasonable notice is provided, the employee's request may not be denied unless it is
unduly disruptive to the department to grant the request. A request to use compensatory
time off without reasonable notice may still be granted within the discretion of the
supervisor or manager responsible for considering the request.
5. The Police Department has the discretion to schedule any of its employees to work a
regular workday on July 4th, regardless of the day of the week or job assignment. This

F. SCHEDULING OF MEDICAL TREATMENT FOR INDUSTRIAL INJURIES
Time spent by an employee receiving medical attention to address an industrial injury during the

NBPA MOU 2025-2028
Page 123
When an employee is temporarily disabled due to an industrial injury and is unable to perform
even limited duty in the workplace, all appointments, whether arranged by the City or the
employees, shall be considered as occurring during normal working hours. The employee shall
not be entitled to any additional compensation, regardless of the employee's regular work
schedule or the type of compensation currently received, except as otherwise required by law.
When an employee has been released to either full or limited duty and has returned to the
workplace, time spent receiving ongoing medical treatment, such as physical therapy or follow-up
visits that are not scheduled by the City, is not considered hours worked and therefore, is not
compensable. To avoid disruption in the workplace, an employee shall schedule such
appointments to occur during off duty hours whenever possible. In the event such scheduling is
not available, employee may be allowed to attend an appointment during their regularly scheduled
duty shift with prior supervisory approval. Regular recurring appointments (i.e., weekly physical
therapy) must be scheduled off duty.

Non -Sworn bargaining unit members shall receive eighteen (18) hours annually of paid leave in
the pay period which includes July 1. The hours do not accrue, have no cash value, cannot be
transferred to any other leave bank and must be used by the pay period before the pay period
containing July 1, at which time any remaining hours will be depleted. Use of NAL is subject to
supervisory approval.
SECTION 4. FRINGE BENEFITS
A. INSURANCE
1. Benefits Information Committee
City has established a Benefits Information Committee (BIC) composed of one representative
from each employee association group and up to three City representatives. The Benefits
Information Committee has been established to allow the City to present data regarding carrier
and coverage options, the cost of those options, appropriate coverage levels and other health
programs. The purpose of the BIC is to provide each employee association with information
about health insurance/programs and to receive timely input from associations regarding
preferred coverage options and levels of coverage.
2. Medical Insurance
The City has implemented an IRS qualified Cafeteria Plan. In addition to the
amounts listed below, the City shall contribute the minimum CalPERS participating
employer's contribution towards medical insurance. Employees shall have the
option of allocating Cafeteria Plan contributions towards the City's existing medical,
dental and vision insurance/programs.
b. City Contribution
NBPA MOU 2025-2028
Page 124
Effective May 31, 2025, the City's monthly contribution to the cafeteria plan will increase to
$1,924/mo (plus the minimum CaIPERS participating employee's contribution).
c. Cash Back
i. Employees shall be allowed to change coverages in accordance with
plan rules and during regular open enrollment periods.
NBPA members who do not want to enroll in any medical plan offered by the City
must provide evidence of group medical insurance coverage, and execute an
"opt -out" agreement releasing the City from any responsibility or liability to
provide medical insurance coverage on an annual basis.
Unit members whose actual start date occurs prior to January 1, 2022, and who
elect to opt out of medical coverage offered by the City because they have proof
of minimum essential coverage ("MEC" through another source (other than
coverage in the individual market, whether or not obtained through Covered
California) will receive $1,000.00 per month in taxable cash paid bi-weekly. For
these same employees, if they elect medical coverage and spend less than
$1,624.00 monthly (plus the minimum CaIPERS participating employer's
contribution), the difference shall be paid to the employee as taxable cash
biweekly.
Newly appointed unit members whose actual start date occurs on or after the first
day of the pay period following City Council approval of this MOU in FY 2021-22
and who elect to opt out of medical coverage offered by the City because they
have provided proof of MEC through another source (other than coverage in the
individual market, whether or not obtained through Covered California) shall
receive $500.00 per month in taxable cash. For these same employees, if they
elect medical coverage and spend less than the City contribution provided above,
there shall be no cash back provided. This paragraph shall not apply to an
employee who received a conditional offer letter prior to adoption of this MOU
which referenced the pre-existing "opt out" and cafeteria cash provisions.
The preceding language as applied to the following scenarios:
1. Part-time employee hired by the City prior to MOU adoption but not appointed
as a full-time employee into the NBPA until on or after MOU adoption - this
employee is subject to the $500 opt -out amount and does not receive cash
back if the medical coverage elected is less than the City contribution.
2. Full-time employee hired by the City prior to MOU adoption who later drops
down to part-time and then is reappointed to the unit as a full-time employee -
this employee is subject to the $500 opt -out amount and does not receive
cash back if the medical coverage elected is less than the City contribution.
3. Full-time employee hired by the City prior to MOU adoption who later
transfers into the unit from another unit- if the employee was not subject to
the $500 opt -out amount and/or no cash back in the unit from which they are
transferring, they will receive the benefit of $1,000 opt -out and/or cash back if
the medical coverage elected is less than the City contribution.
NBPA MOU 2025-2028

3. Dental Insurance
The existing or comparable dental plans shall be maintained as part of the City's health
plan offerings as agreed upon by the Benefits Information Committee.

plan offerings as agreed upon by the Benefits Information Committee.
B. ADDITIONAL INSURANCE/PROGRAMS
1. IRS Section 125 Flexible Spending Account
Section 125 of the Internal Revenue Code authorizes an employee to reduce taxable income
for payment of allowable expenses such as child care and medical expenses. The City shall
maintain a "reimbursable account program" in accordance with the provisions of Section 125
of the Internal Revenue Code, pursuant to which an Association member may request that
medical, child care and other eligible expenses be paid or reimbursed by the City out of the
employee's account. The base salary of the employee will be reduced by the amount
designated by the employee for reimbursable expenses.
2. Disability Insurance
The City shall provide Short-term (STD) and Long-term (LTD) disability insurance to all regular
full-time employees with the following provisions:
Short -Term Disability
Long -Term Disability
Benefit Amount
66.67% of covered wages
66.67% of covered wages
Maximum Benefit
$1,846 weekly
$15,000 monthly
Waiting Period
30 calendar days
180 calendar days
Employees shall pay one percent (1 %) of base salary as a pre-tax deduction for this benefit.
Effective the first premium payment following the City Council adoption of the MOU in Fiscal
Year 2021- 22, the City will no longer require unit members to pay one percent (1 %) of base
salary for this benefit and this Paragraph shall be deleted.
Employees shall not be required to exhaust accrued paid leaves prior to receiving benefits
under the disability insurance program. Employees may not supplement the disability benefit
with paid leave once the waiting period has been exhausted.
3. Life Insurance
The City shall provide life insurance for all regular full-time employees in $1,000 increments
equal to one times the employee's annual salary up to a maximum of $50,000. At age 70 the
City -paid life insurance is reduced by 50% of the pre-70 amount. This amount remains in effect
until the employee retires from City employment.
C. EMPLOYEE ASSISTANCE PROGRAM
City shall provide an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) through a properly licensed provider.
NBPA MOU 2025-2028
Page 126
Association members and their family members may access the EAP subject to provider
guidelines.
D. THE RETIREMENT BENEFIT
1. Retirement Formula
The City contracts with the California Public Employees Retirement System ("CalPERS" or
"PERS") to provide retirement benefits for its employees. Pursuant to prior agreements and
state mandated reform, the City has implemented first, second and third tier retirement
benefits as follows:
Tier I ("Legacy"): For employees hired by the City on or before November 23, 2012, the
retirement formula for safety members shall be 3%@50 and the retirement formula for non -
safety members shall be 2.5%@ 55, calculated on the basis of the highest consecutive 12-
month period selected by the employee.
Tier II ("Classic"): For employees first hired by the City between November 24 and December
31, 2012, or hired on or after January 1, 2013 and who are current members of the retirement
system or a reciprocal retirement system, as defined in Public Employees Pension Reform
Act (PEPRA), the retirement formula for safety members shall be 3%@55 and the retirement
formula for non -safety members shall be 2%@60, calculated on the basis of the highest
consecutive 36 month period selected by the employee,
Tier III ("PEPRA"): For employees first hired by the City on or after January 1, 2013, and who
do not meet the Tier II criteria, the safety retirement formula shall be 2.7%@57 and the non
safety retirement formula shall be 2.0%@62, calculated on the basis of the highest
consecutive 36 month period selected by the employee,
2. Employee Contributions
Unit members shall contribute additional amounts toward the PERS retirement benefit, to the
extent permissible by law, as set forth below. Should any such provision be deemed invalid,
the City and Association agree to meet for the purpose of renegotiating employee retirement
contributions or other equivalent economic adjustments.
Employee retirement contributions that are in addition to the normal PERS Member
Contribution shall be calculated on base pay, special pays, and other pays normally reported
as pensionable compensation, and will be made on a pre-tax basis through payroll deduction,
to the extent allowable by the Internal Revenue Code
a. Safety
Tiers I and II:
NBPA Tier I and 11 safety members will contribute the full statutory member
contribution, equal to 9% of pensionable compensation, plus an additional 4.6% of
pensionable compensation toward retirement costs as permitted under Government
Code §20516(f), for a total contribution of 13.6% of pensionable compensation.
NBPA MOU 2025-2028
Page 127
Tier III:
In addition to the statutorily required 50% contribution of total normal costs ("member
contribution rate"), Tier III employees shall contribute an additional amount of
pensionable compensation toward retirement costs pursuant to Government Code §
20516(f), so that their contribution equals a total contribution of 13.6% of pensionable
compensation. If in future fiscal years member contribution rate for employees in Tier
III shall become greater or less, as determined by PERS valuation, the additional
contribution made by the employee under 20516(f) will be increased or decreased
accordingly so that the total employee contribution equals 13.6% of pensionable
compensation. Provided, however, that the employee contribution shall never fall
below the statutory required contribution.
b. Non Safety
Tier I
Tier I employees shall contribute eight percent (8%) of compensation earnable for
the CalPERS member contribution, plus an additional 2% of compensation
earnable as cost sharing pursuant to Government Code section §20516(f), for a
total contribution of 10.0% of compensation earnable.
Tier ll:
Tier II employees shall contribute the statutory PERS Member Contribution equal
to 7.0% of compensation earnable, plus an additional 3.0% of compensation
earnable toward retirement costs under Government Code§ 20516(f), for a total
contribution of 10% of compensation earnable.
Tier III:
The minimum statutory employee contribution for employees in Tier III, subject to
the provisions of the Public Employees' Pension Reform Act (PEPRA), equals 50%
of the "total normal cost", and is calculated annually for possible adjustments as
provided in the CalPERS valuations.
In addition to the statutorily required 50% contribution of total normal costs, Tier III
employees shall contribute an additional amount of pensionable compensation
toward retirement pursuant to Government Code § 20516(f), so that their
contribution equals a total of 8.0% of pensionable compensation. If in future fiscal
years the member contribution rate for employees in Tier 111 shall become greater
or less, as determined by PERS valuation, the additional contribution made by the
employee under 20516(f) will be increased or decreased accordingly so that the
total employee contribution equals 8.0% of pensionable compensation. Provided,
however, that the employee contribution shall never fall below the statutory
required contribution.
3. The City's contract with PERS shall also provide for:
a. The military buy-back provisions pursuant to Section 20930.3 of the California
Government Code and the highest year benefit pursuant to Section 20042.
NBPA MOU 2025-2028
Page 128
b. The Level 4 1959 Survivors Benefits.
c. The PERS pre -retirement option settlement 2 death benefit (Section 21548) for
miscellaneous and safety members.
E. RETIREE MEDICAL BENEFIT
1. Background
In 2005, the City and all Employee Associations agreed to replace the previous "defined
benefit" retiree medical program with a new "defined contribution" program. The process of
fully converting to the new program will be ongoing for an extended period. During the
transition, employees and (then) existing retirees have been administratively classified into
one of four categories. The benefit is structured differently for each of the categories. The
categories are as follows:
a. Category 1 - Employees newly hired after January 1, 2005.
b. Category 2 - Active employees hired prior to January 1, 2005, whose age plus
years of service as of January 1, 2005 was less than 50 (46 for public safety
employees).
c. Category 3 - Active employees hired prior to January 1, 2005, whose age plus
years of service was 50 or greater (46 for public safety employees) as of January
1, 2005.
d. Category 4 - Employees who had already retired from the City prior to January 1,
2005, and were participating in the previous retiree medical program.
2. Program Structure
This is an Integral Part Trust (IPT) Retirement Health Savings Plan (RHS).
a. For employees in Category 1, the program is structured as follows
Each employee will have an individual RHS account for bookkeeping purposes, called
his or her "Employee Account." This account will accumulate contributions to be used
for health care expense after separation. All contributions to the plan are either
mandatory employee contributions or City paid employer contributions, so they are not
taxable to employees at the time of deposit. Earnings from investment of funds in the
account are not taxable when posted to the account. Benefit payments are not taxable
when withdrawn, because the plan requires that all distributions be spent for specified
health care purposes.
Contributions will be in three parts.
Part A contributions (mandatory employee contributions): 1 % of Salary.
Part B contributions (employer contributions): $2.50 per month for each year of service
plus year of age (updated every January 1 st based on status as of December 31 st of
the prior year)
NBPA MOU 2025-2028
Page 129
Part C contributions (leave settlement as determined by association):
The Association will determine the level of contribution for all employees it represents,
subject to the following constraints. All employees within the Association must
participate at the same level, except that safety members and non -safety members
within an Association may have different levels. The participation level should be
specified as a percentage of the leave balance on hand in each employee's leave bank
at the time of separation from the City.
For example, if the Association wishes to specify 50% of the leave balance as the
participation level, then each member leaving the City, or cashing out leave at any
other time, would have the cash equivalent of 50% of the amount that is cashed out
added to the RHS, on a pre-tax basis. The remaining 50% would be paid in cash as
taxable income. Individual employees would not have the option to deviate from this
breakout.
The Association has decided to participate in Part C contributions at the level of zero
percent (0%) for FlexNacation Leave and zero percent (0%) for Sick Leave. This
amount may be changed, on a go forward basis, as part of a future meet and confer
process. However, the participation level must be the same for all employees within
the Association except that safety members and non -safety members within an
Association may have different levels. Additionally, the purpose and focus of these
changes should be toward long-term, trend type adjustments. Due to IRS restrictions
regarding "constructive receipt," the City will impose restrictions against frequent
spikes or drops that appear to be tailored toward satisfying the desires of a group of
imminent retirees.
Spillover pay is not eligible for Part C contributions.
Nothing in this section restricts taking leave for time off purposes
Sick leave balances may also be included in the RHS Part C contributions, but only to
the extent and within all the numeric parameters specified in the Employee Policy
Manual. Section 11.21 of the Manual contains a schedule which specifies the amount
of sick leave that can be "cashed out," based on time of service. The manual also caps
the number of hours that can be "cashed out" at 800 and specifies that sick leave hours
are "cashed out" on a 2 for 1 basis (800 hours of sick leave are converted to 400 hours
for cash purposes). Sick leave participation is a separate item from vacation/flex leave
participation, and thresholds must be separately identified by the Association.
Part A contributions may be included in PERS compensation. Part B and Part C
contributions will not be included in PERS compensation.
Part A contributions begin upon enrollment in the program and are credited to each
RHS Employee Account each pay period. Eligibility for Part B contributions is set at
five years of vested City employment. At that time, the City will credit the first five years'
worth of Part B contributions into the Employee Account (interest does not accrue
during that period). Thereafter, contributions are made bi-weekly. Part C deposits, if
any, will be made at the time of employment separation.
Each Employee has a right to reimbursement of medical expenses (as defined below)
from the Plan until the Employee Account balance is zero. This right is triggered upon
separation. If an employee leaves the City prior to five years' employment, only the
NBPA MOU 2025-2028
Page 130
Part A contributions and Part C leave settlement contributions, if any, will be in the
RHS Employee Account. Such an employee will not be entitled to any Part B
contributions. The exception to this is a full- time employee, participating in the
program, who leaves the City due to industrial disability during the first five years of
employment. In such cases, the employee will receive exactly five years' worth of Part
B contributions, using the employee's age and compensation at the time of separation
for calculation purposes. This amount will be deposited into the employee's RHS
account at the time of separation.
Distributions from RHS Employee Accounts are restricted to use for health insurance
and medical care expenses after separation, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code
Section 213(d) (as explained in IRS Publication 502), and specified in the Plan
Document. In accordance with current IRS regulations and practices, this generally
includes premiums for medical insurance, dental insurance, vision insurance,
supplemental medical insurance, long term care insurance, and miscellaneous
medical expenses not covered by insurance for the employee and his or her spouse
and legal dependents - again only as permitted by IRS Publication 502. Qualification
for dependency status will be determined by guidelines in IRC 152. If used for these
purposes, distributions from the RHS accounts will not be taxable. Cash withdrawal for
any other purpose is prohibited. Under recent IRS Revenue Ruling 2005-24, any
balance remaining in the Employee Account after the death of the employee and his
or her spouse and/or other authorized dependents (if any) must be forfeited. That
particular RHS Employee Account will be closed, and any remaining funds will become
general assets of the plan.
The parties agree that the City's Part B contributions during active employment
constitute the minimum CalPERS participating employer's contribution towards
medical insurance after retirement. The parties also agree that, for retirees selecting a
CaIPERS medical plan, or any other plan with a similar employer contribution
requirement, the required City contribution will be withdrawn from the retiree's RHS
account.
b. For employees in Category 2, the program is the same as for those in Category 1,
with the following exception:
In addition to the new plan contributions listed above, current employees who fully
convert to the new plan will also receive a one- time City contribution to their individual
RHS accounts that equates to $100 per month for every month they contributed to the
previous "defined benefit" plan, to a maximum of 15 years (180 months). This
contribution will be made only if the employee retires from the City and at the time of
retirement. No interest will be earned in the interim.
Employees in Category 2 who had less than five years' service with the City prior to
implementation of the new program will only receive Part B contributions back to
January 1, 2006 when they reach five years' total service.
c. For employees in Category 3, the program is the same as for those in Category 2,
with the following exception:
For employees in this category, the City will make no Part B contributions while the
employees are still in the active work force. Instead, the City will contribute $400 per
month into each of their RHS accounts after they retire from the City, to continue as
NBPA MOU 2025-2028
Page 131
long as the employee or spouse is still living.
Each employee will contribute a flat $100 per month to the plan for the duration of their
employment to partially offset part of this expense to the City. The maximum benefit
provided by the City after retirement is $4,800.00 per year, accruing at the rate of
$400.00 per month. There is no cash out option for these funds, and they may not be
spent in advance of receipt.
Employees in this category will also receive an additional one-time City contribution of
$75 per month for every month they contributed to the previous plan prior to January
1, 2006, up to a maximum of 15 years (180 months). This contribution will be made to
the RHS account at the time of retirement, and only if the employee retires from the
City. No interest will be earned in the interim.
d. For employees (retirees) in Category 4, the structure is very similar to the previous
retiree medical program, except that there is no cost share requirement, and the
$400 City contribution after retirement can be used for any IRS authorized purpose,
not just City insurance premiums.
Effective July 1, 2006, an RHS account has been opened for each retiree in this
category, and the City will contribute $400 per month to each account as long as the
retiree or spouse remains living.
For existing NBPA retirees in this category, the $400 was increased to $450 effective
July 1, 2006. The NBPA and Police Management Association have agreed to
reimburse the City for half of the cost of this increase, on an ongoing basis. To that
end, the City will invoice NBPA at the end of each quarter for half the actual cost of
this increase during the previous three months.
3. Administration
Vendors have been selected by the City to administer the program. The contract expense
for program -wide administration by the vendor will be paid by the City. However, specific
vendor charges for individual account transactions that vary according to the investment
actions taken by each employee, such as fees or commissions for trades, will be paid by
each employee.
The City's Deferred Compensation Committee, or its successor committee, will have the
authority to determine investment options that will be available through the plan.
F. CITY CONTRIBUTION TO PORAC RETIREE MEDICAL TRUST (RMT)
The City shall contribute $100.00 per month, per unit member to the PORAC Retiree Medical
Trust. At no time shall the City be liable for administering the PORAC RMT, paying fees towards
it, remedying or covering any losses by it, or assuming any of the PORAC RMT's liabilities or legal
obligations. In the event the City is required to pay or withhold payroll taxes on employee
contributions, the parties shall immediately meet and confer in good faith to attempt to implement
equitable adjustments to the contributions referenced herein. In the event the PORAC RMT
ceases to operate, the Association shall designate an alternate retiree medical vehicle to which
the City contribution shall be made, with said contribution being conditioned upon there being no
additional cost or administrative burdens associated therewith.
G. DEFERRED COMPENSATION
NBPA MOU 2025-2028
Page 132
Each employee shall have a deferred compensation account set up by the City and subject to the
rules of IRS Code section 457 to which s/he may make contributions. The City shall contribute to
each employee's deferred compensation account each pay period as follows:
The City shall contribute a total of two percent (2%) of base salary to each employee's deferred
compensation account.
Under federal law, there is an annual maximum contribution which may be made to an employee's
deferred compensation account. Although the City will be making contributions to employees'
accounts each pay period, it is the employees' responsibility to track their total contribution
amount. If an employee's account contributions reach the annual maximum, the City will stop
making contributions for the remainder of the calendar year and will not owe the employee any
additional compensation related to this section.
H. TUITION REIMBURSEMENT
NBPA members attending accredited community colleges, colleges, trade schools or universities
may apply for reimbursement of one hundred percent (100%) of the actual cost of tuition, books,
fees or other student expenses for approved job -related courses. The maximum tuition
reimbursement for all employees in the unit shall be $1,400 per fiscal year.
I. PHYSICAL CONDITIONING EQUIPMENT
City has acquired fitness equipment for use by members in maintaining physical fitness. City shall
budget $5,000.00 per each calendar year for the maintenance, repair, improvement, or
replacement of fitness equipment. Any purchase of new equipment shall be subject to the
concurrence of the Department. All exercise facilities and equipment will be available to all
members of the department.
J. PHYSICAL FITNESS QUALIFIER
The Physical Fitness Qualifier (PFQ) is offered to police officers twice annually. Fitness
benchmarks have been established and are outlined in Exhibit "C." Officers who rank 1st Class,
2nd Class or 3rd Class as set forth in Exhibit "C" are awarded leave time depending upon achieved
rank. Within two weeks of PFQ completion, the department will create a personnel action form
indicating the rank and number of leave time hours awarded for each sworn police officer. The
awarded hours will be placed in the police officer's individual Comp Time bank (at the straight time
rate), which is subject to a 120-hour maximum balance. If the employee later chooses to have the
leave time "paid out," payment will be at the employee's MOU overtime rate.
K. POLICE MECHANIC TOOL STIPEND
Effective May 31, 2025, the City will provide a lump sum of $500 per year to reimburse
Police Mechanics for purchasing their own tools.
SECTION 5. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
A. REDUCTIONS IN FORCE/LAYOFFS
The provisions of this section shall apply when the City Manager determines that a reduction in
the work force is warranted because of actual or anticipated reductions in revenue, reorganization
NBPA MOU 2025-2028
Page 133
of the work force, a reduction in municipal services, a reduction in the demand for service or other
reasons unrelated to the performance of duties by any specific employee. Reductions in force are
to be accomplished, to the extent feasible, on the basis of seniority within a particular
Classification or Series and this Section should be interpreted accordingly.
1. Definitions
a. "Layoffs" or "Laid off' shall mean the non -disciplinary termination of employment.
b. "Seniority" shall mean the time an employee has worked in a Classification or Series
calculated from the date on which the employee was first granted permanent status in
their current Classification or any Classification within the Series, subject to the
following:
Credit shall be given only for continuous service subsequent to the
most recent appointment to permanent status in the Classification or
Series;
Seniority shall include time spent on industrial leave, military leave and
leave of absence with pay, but shall not include time spent on any other
authorized or unauthorized leave of absence.
c. "Classification" shall mean one or more full time positions identical or similar in duties
and embraced by a single job title authorized in the City budget and shall not include
part-time, seasonal or temporary positions. Classifications within a Series shall be
ranked according to pay (lowest ranking, lowest pay).
d. "Series" shall mean two or more Classifications within a Department which require the
performance of similar duties with the higher ranking Classification(s) characterized by
the need for less supervision by superiors, more difficult assignments, more supervisory
responsibilities for subordinates. The City Manager shall determine those
Classifications which constitute a Series.
e. "Bumping Rights", "Bumping" or "bump" shall mean the right of an employee, based
upon seniority within a series, to displace a less senior employee in a lower
Classification within the Series. No employee shall have the right to Bump into a
Classification for which the employee does not possess the minimum qualifications
such as specialized education, training or experience.
2. Procedures
In the event the City Manager determines to reduce the number of employees within a
Classification, the following procedures are applicable:
a. Temporary and probationary employees within any Classification shall, in that order,
be laid off before permanent employees.
b. Employees within a Classification shall be laid off in inverse order of seniority;
c. An employee subject to layoff in one Classification shall have the right to Bump a less
senior employee in a lower ranking Classification within a Series. An employee who
has Bumping Rights shall notify the Department Director within three (3) working days
NBPA MOU 2025-2028
Page 134
after notice of layoff of his/her intention to exercise Bumping Rights.
d. In the event two or more employees in the same Classification are subject to layoff
and have the same seniority, the employees shall be laid off in inverse order of their
position on the eligibility list or lists from which they were appointed. In the event at
least one of the employees was not appointed from an eligibility list, the Department
Director shall determine the employee(s) to be laid off.
3. Notice
Employees subject to layoff shall be given at least thirty (30) days advance notice of the
layoff or thirty (30) days' pay in lieu of notice. In addition, employees laid off will be paid
for all accumulated paid leave, holiday leave(if any), and accumulated sick leave to the
extent permitted by the Employee Policy Manual.
4. Re -Employment
Permanent and probationary employees who are laid off shall be placed on a Department re-
employment list in reverse order of layoff. The laid off former employee shall remain on the re-
employment list for not to exceed two (2) years from the date of layoff. In the event a vacant
position occurs in the Classification which the employee occupied at the time of layoff, or a
lower ranking Classification within a Series, the employee at the top of the Department re-
employment list shall have the right to appointment to the position, provided, he or she reports
to work within seven (7) days of written notice of appointment. Notice shall be deemed given
when personally delivered to the employee or deposited in the U.S. Mail, certified, return
receipt requested, and addressed to the employee at his or her last known address. Any
employee shall have the right to refuse to be placed on the re-employment list or the right to
remove his or her name from the re- employment list by sending written confirmation to the
Human Resources Director.
5. Severance Pay
Permanent employees who are laid off shall, as of the date of layoff, receive one -week
severance pay for each year of continuous service with the City of Newport Beach, but in no
case to exceed ten (10) weeks of severance compensation.
B. WORK SCHEDULES
Nothing contained herein is intended to abridge management's right to schedule work to meet the
Police Department's needs of providing services in an efficient and safe manner. Management
recognizes its obligations to meet and confer before making any substantive changes to work
schedules that impact an employee's conditions of employment.
1. Substantive Work Schedule Modifications
Newport Beach Police Department currently has available a variety of work schedules
including 5/8, 3/12, 9/80, 4/10 and the 3/11.42 - 4/11.42 schedule. Except in the case of
emergency, prior to moving any employee or group of employees from one work schedule to
another (for example from a 9/80 to a 3/12 schedule), the Department shall notify, and upon
request, meet and confer with the Association in advance of any schedule change. If an
emergency prohibits meeting and conferring prior to the schedule change, the Department
shall meet and confer with the Association as soon as is reasonably possible after the
NBPA MOU 2025-2028
Page 135
schedule change.
2. Non -Substantive Schedule Modifications
In the event of any non -substantive change to an employee's work schedule (changes in
starting times, days off, etc.), Management agrees to give as much advance notice of said
change as possible and to give reasonable regard to the needs of the employees to make
adjustments to their personal schedules and commitments related to the change in work
schedules.
3. Transfers
Transferring an employee to an assignment with a different work schedule shall not be
considered a change to modified work schedules and shall not obligate Management to meet
and confer over said change.
C. SENIORITY
1. Definition and Policy
In order to clarify "seniority" practices, the parties agree to the following definition and policy
for "seniority" determinations. "Seniority" position among members belonging to the same
classification and determined prior to the date of this Agreement shall not change, regardless
of the method of determination.
a. Unless otherwise specified, for purposes of employment practices and vacation
selection in which "seniority" is a consideration, "seniority" is defined and determined
as the period of time of continuous full time employment within a classification.
b. Determination of seniority date upon promotion or demotion of full time employees:
An employee promoted into any higher classification shall obtain their seniority
date based upon their date of promotion, relative to others in the classification
into which the employee promotes.
An employee who voluntarily or involuntarily demotes into any lower
classification shall retain the oldest seniority date from any prior full time
classification from which they promoted or to which they are re-classified.
c. Part time employees have no seniority rights, and any full time employee who resigns
their full time position and accepts a part time appointment shall forfeit any seniority,
even upon re -appointment to a full time position.
d. Nothing in this definition is intended to affect any other employment right or
consideration that may be based upon total years of service, initial appointment date,
or any other date of hire or change in employment status.
e. In the event there is a conflict between members of a classification hired on the same
day, seniority position shall be determined by order of hire based upon issuance of
Employee ID numbers.
f. For the class of Police Officer, seniority is determined based upon the date of
NBPA MOU 2025-2028
Page 136
appointment as a Police Officer, not date of hire as a Police Recruit.
2. Nothing contained herein is intended to abridge management's right to schedule
employees to work or deny leave requests that management feels will interfere with the
efficient running of the Police Department or present a safety hazard to employees or the
community.
The Department shall continue its practice of allowing employees to sign up for vacations,
shifts and days off by seniority. The Department shall have the right to deviate from
seniority in shift preference selection as necessary to meet training needs, train
probationers, separate employees, meet specialized qualification needs, and/or to correct
experience imbalances in accordance with existing practice. In the event Management
wishes to propose substantive changes to the existing practice of sign-up for vacations,
shifts and days off by seniority, it shall give notice to the Association and meet and confer
to seek mutually agreeable solutions and/or remedies. In the event that a mutually
agreeable solution or remedy is not found, Management may deviate from the prior
seniority criteria to the extent necessary to meet operational or safety needs.
D. GRIEVANCE PROCEDURE
