Dear Folks:
I am attaching the ordinance and contract with regard to
Colonel Fletcher's employment.
I know that you understand that his compensation is
actually based upon $3,104, per month for three months. Since
2
the Board of Police Commissioners would not permit him to
receive more than $1,000, per month, we have spread the income
to him over a longer period of time. I have told him that we
have not provided in the ordinance for the extra $312.
compensation (,104. x 3) but I suspect you will pay this as it
is consistent with my discussion with Colonel Fletcher as
authorized by you. It would be my suggestion that you consider
isolating for bookkeeping purposes $2,104, per month for the
months of September, October and November and then pay it out
over the nine months as provided by the contract.
HE will be available as a consultant after the three months
have past, should the new Director of Public Safety desire to
talk with him about City problems.
Should his regular employment extend beyond the three
months, then you will want to consider an addendum to the
contract so that he will be paid the $1,000, per month for a
longer period than nine months.
Yours very truly,
~~ G~.~
