schedule and'were occupied:
We, therefore, recommend the Rochester Airport Commission and the City of
Rochester waive all liquidated damages -

"To the Honorable Mayor
and
Members.of the Common Council
Gentlemen:
We, the undersigned members of the Finance Committee, have studied the
report and recommendations of the Fact Finding Panel appointed to investigate
the grievances of the members of the Rocheste r Police Benevolent Association.
We make the following recommendations, as an interim report, feeling that
further study of the Fact Finding Panel's report and recommendations are in
order.
1. The Fact Finding Panel recommended that the wage scale of Patrolman be
set according to Grad8 29 of the Basic Pay Plan, rather than the present Grade
28. Before considering the merits of this recommendation, the Finance
Committee has first requested an opinion from the City Attorney and Attorney -
General, if necessary as to whether or not the Common Council has the authority
to act upon this recommendation of the Panel, at this time. Therefore, the
Finance Committee will have no recommendation on this item at this time.
2. An additional recommendation of the Fact Finding Panel is for removal
of the language of Chapter IV, Section 35, of the City Charter, which requires
one year hhresidence by a Police Department applicant, prior to appointment.
We agreelF is recommendation, as we feel that this requirement has been an
improtant factor in ,the Police Civil Service Commission being unable to
attract sufficient numbers of well qualified applicants to fill department
vacancies. Removal of this charter language, would permit the Police
Commission to exercise discretion on residence requirements, according to the
local labor market conditions, by changing the Police Civil Services rules
when nceessary. With this change, the commission could require city residence -
when qualified local applicants are available, but could broaden requirements
to areas outside the city when necessary. We, therefore, recommend that the
Common Council send a letter to the Charter Commission, urging study of this
proposed revision. '
.8. An additional recommendation of the Fact Finding Panel was that an
outside job analysis be made of the positions of Police Patrolman and Fire
Fighter to determine their relative worth.

We are in agreement with this proposal and recommend that the City Personnel
Director be instructed to make immeidate inquirers relative to employment of a
reputable Personnel Consulting Firm by the .Common Council, for the purpose of
making a job study and evaluation -of these two classes of positions and a
recommendation as to the proper relation of the salary of Patrolman and Fire
Fibhter. We feel this study should begin as soon as possible so that the
results are available prior to the setting of departmental budgets in the
fall of 1962.
