Gary` Director Department of Management an Budget • nAtE• March 14, 1978 SUSJECt• I�ILE: Proposed Ordinance to Appropriate Funds for Consent Decree Administration REFERENCES: ENCLOSURES The City of Miami currently is functioning under the legal requirements of two Consent Decrees: (1) The Cohen Consent Decree, which deals with the development of Police Department entrance and promotional examinations; and (2) the United States Justice Department Consent Decree, which entails equal opportunity placement in all City of Miami departments. The Cohen Consent Decree required the City to appoint an independent orga- nization to prepare, monitor, score, and validate entrance and promotional examinations for the Police Department. A three-year requirement for the preparation, monitoring, and scoring was satisfied as of December 2, 1977. The Department of Human Resources now plans to assume those functions, which must continue to be performed, using City Personnel, at a much lower cost to the City. In addition, significant work is needed to fulfill the United States Justice Department Consent Decree, particularly with regard to validation of entrance and promotional examinations for all City Departments. Added resources are needed in the Department of Hunan Resources to perform those tasks. Using CETA funds, the Human Resources Department can acquire the resources necessary to comply with both Consent Decrees during the remainder of fiscal year 1977-78 with a supplement of $23,638 to that Department's current General Fund appropriation.That amount is available in the General Fund's Contingent Fund. The attached proposed ordinance would provide for the transfer of $23,638 from the Contingent Fund to the Department of. Human Resources General Fund budget.
