Highleyman, C. - , ,�..... . absent from the oity) POLICE DEPARTMENT SALARIES APPOINTMENTS SENORITY ETC. To the Honorable Board of City Counoil Gentlemen: I have had between six and seven ye.rrs experienoe as a police officer in the oity of Miami and I feel that I am capable of taking oars of any job of that kind that oomes before me. Here, sometime ago, I asked the city for the regular scale of wares which the oity charter provides for the pay of polioemen1a salaries, and I feel that I am entitled to that salary from the time I went on duty, and I wish your honorable board would grant it. Now gentlemen I have a reoori of between six and seven years as a policeman and without ever having, a complaint male against me or anything being said a ;ainat my conducts. Since I have been on teas last time, I have had numbers of cases of nearly every kind of violations against the city ordinanoes, from the sale of liquors to violations of sanitary or•dinanoee. I furthermore wish to oall your attention to the fact that my cases have been so clear that none of them have ever been retained a lawyer to defend them. Very respectfully it. J. Hardee" er. Filer: He was off several years and Curry also, but I think Curry requested leave of absence. :':r. P.efty: In Curry's case, it att was during Mr. Erfert's absence last summer when I to„k charge of the police department, and there was no leave of absence granted. I remember that well. ,;r. Filer: That is the way I understood it. I wa.a talking with the Chief. '.r. Hefty: I remember the chief and myself had quite a time getting his badge back and :here wee a•leo a bicycle t.iat belonMea to the city. The chief came to me several times aaboat the badge ea L the bicycle. :r. Filer, I remember talkingvto the mayor about putting Curry baok on the force and he o told ee .at teat time alet heha.J leave of absence. :.:. yor :lends on: :r. Cur y came to me before: last November and said he would like to get of and I toed him I hen nothing to do with the matter; he said he wanted leave of eesenoe for few months to rest up. In re`ard to some appointments that have not come in, teat was an overelget on my part. Previous to the conver-.ration reported above, the olerk had read the following letters: " fi.ami, June 5, 1916. a... F. Cason, City Attor Bey, i_ •i, Florida.. :ear Tee rate of emay of tee poiiee officers of the pity is governed by the following: "Ea.ch polioeir n shall receive the aura of ,$,''75. per month payable monthly, and an increase of $5. per month after twelve months continued service and a corresponding en lual inc ease for each continued years servioe thereafter for three years." Policeman R. J. Har lie was arpointaa gy the Mayor on February 24, 1916, after having been out of service for ap.roxi,p.ately four years. Previous to February 24, 1916, he was in service eever.:l years. He ;la.ims senority from the date of his first appointment eevera.l years ago and teat the fact that he wse out of service: for some four years does not afro ;t his atandine. ? e :to not feel autnorizedin issuing voucher for Mr. Hardie for a. sill.. in excess oftl75. per month. n re a.re two ,pen on :tie force now, appointe:i.by the mayor, an,i the appointments have no-. been confir:llei by council. Are we authorized to draw a voucher in payment of the s.r.arie:s of tese men in view of the charter requirements that all appointments oh -di be oonfir.aed by council? • Curry was in service sevora.l ye..rs but Ras away for six or'eight months and he „iei.,.e teat he had leave of a,'osence. There is no record, that we have been able to ioc te, ehc- in_ ','at he was grante 1 leave o; a.bsenoe. He was appointed by the mayor(but not eonfir �.l ' y council) on February 17, 1916. 3houcil he not be carried at the $75. rite unless by alec,_1 action of cou-noil, after notice by the mayor in accordance • kith th- charter, provision is made to carry him at a higher rate of pay and a higher r,o.nk tn,r. tria.t of p4.trolman? P,.eAse let us h.ve .,)Ar ruling on this as euiokly as possible, as we are holding up ,..•y lolls. i .1r3 v,:ry truly, C H Reeder, City Auditor." "idia:ni, . Florida, 'June 6, 1916 .:r. C. :?. Ree.i�r, ity Auditor. Leer fir: "nder date of June 5th you make inquiry as to my construction of the followts clause reeative to police officers of the city of Miami: "Each policeman shall receive the sum of. 75. per month payable • monthly, are an incre. a of ;5. per month after twelve months Qontinued service, a.na cor.eeponding increase for each continued yearn 'r?erv'i e therea.fter for three years." ¢" From w strict inte pretal.ion of the foregoing, it ie mar tad 1c t r,, �'_'• 'iy2 t)oe'as:;' .t polioeman who have been in actual and continued se rice axe ," °`.� op 0 1' i Mir Ape 1 y have been the -intention of the city oounoil to have fArr a iged a�, adhc to :p amen on a basin of the experience which they, have had, irz eepeotive of he..>q o0 1oh of * 4r or not ouch policemen should have rendered continuous service: If so, the ordinance should be amended so as to convey that meaning, as at present we oat only co*$t it to the effect that if any policeman goes off the force either voluntarily or through discharge, his time ceases to run, and if he subsequently receives a new appointment, his time would begin to run again, ani he would not reoeive the benefits of hie prior service In the oaa.:> of :,r. Curry, if he oan make proper showing as to his having a leave of absence frog., office, I do not believe that he would have forfeited his right to a olaim o continued service. It is my opinion that the city auditor has authority to draw vouohers in'payment Of an viaim which has been properly approved by the city oounoil unless some fraud or mistake b discovered by the auditor. That is to say, the office of the city auditor is an adminiatr one and not an execbtive office. The question as to 7ir. fa.rdee'e compensation, I think is one which should be brought b the city oounoil, in or.er to get their views on the ma.t'er. Your truly, F. W. Cason, City Attorney." r. Ro:Tifh: I think wh.r: a men ha.s served on the force and F,iven good service he should b given preference over a green man, b.:t your ordinance does not so,l.rovide. I think a resolution or or:rina.noe should be preeeited here to put the matter straight. The appoint menta, they should be read an r the council ant on them. :r. Hefty: Wh:;r: a. man voluntarily qaite and re-e ter the employ of the city I think he ahould tart over again. ur. Filer: I think he should have the benefit of his services. ;.Ir. Hi,lileyu.a.n: I think it Wa.s clearly int nded, if a mean has been a good servant and is let out for a. while, or e :ehenee in a itinistration, I don't think that should top his receiving the benefit of teia inceea.ae. I think the intent is to give him the wages. .r Hefty: Then we will have to change t?le ordinance. Chief, don't, you remember the'time Cucy left you came to.see me .about the badge and the bicyole7 Chief ?hit,: en : ':'hut wed elonc last fall. .dr. Eefty: Did he le -ve wi'.h leave of . osence7 Chief: left -.vi ii the and r t_ .:in: that he wee on leave of absence. ..:r. Erfert: Aoeor.Lins to the chLrter a policeman who gets 90 per month teat is the limit. '.:,ere goes ._r. Cur:yoore in for :,100. I don't believe in paying an officer as much as t chief. If yi reiae Ce ry to ,le0 the, chief should have at least 425. . r. ?;orr,fh : You put on h-re last fel two men at not to exceed 100. per month, the mayor h..d one man and t'. chief of poi.ice one,- plain clothes men.

Erfert: :,o mat.,er a,b,ut the a.ministration, if a policeman is a goad n,o.n he will keep his job. .r. Hefty: I ion't think e men was ever let out if he wes ar good patrolman; -they hold onto the :O(. 1 men. ,.,.r. Tli.nley,.en: The mayor nays he has had eisht or nine years experience. .:r. Romfh: If you want to p..y Curry 4100. per month, put it on the minutes. ..r. Hieh,eyme : I agree with ..:r. Erfert that it is rather peculiar to pay a main the same a.a the chief. .

However, it is of course your duty to hold up the payment f such bills when facts come to your attention which might lead you to the conclusion that fraud had been practiced, or improper items entered under the heal or expense charges. As i unde stand it, there is no such contention in this particular case, but th^re is a question in your mind as to whether the inspector can riEhtfully make charges for professional services rendered to the city as a vetrinary surgeon, .._so c'.,.<r: e up tr.o.neporta.tion charges to the city.
