12186.8 TO: Mayor and City Council VA FROM: Mark Bernhardson, City Administra'�OIJi�iCIL EtrE ING DATE: January 21, 1986 JAN 27 1986 SCBJCET: Adr.inistrator's Information CITY OF ORONO BI _is1 nd Veteran's k. inp At a meeting of the Big Island Board of Governor's on January 16. 1986, the representation was split evenly on a 4 - 4 vote as to what action should be taken. Based on this they have directed people to discuss with Orono what procedures they need to under- take to be able to again utilize the property as a Veteran's Camp. We have outlined for them the needs for various conditional use permits and some of the requirements that will be attendant thereto. We have also indicated to them that should we not he-e a plan for either fixup or removal of existing buildings that is acceptable in timely fashion tt.at not only will conditional use permi':s probably not be granted, but that we will commence hazardous building proceedings starting in March. As you will recall these proceedings have been held in abeyance by the City since A -gust of 1905 because there were indications on the part of the Board of Govenor's that they would be havim, a study conducted of the Camp, which they did, regardini feasibility of the fix or development of it in another direction. While the study did outline a S3 million dollar development, it did not produce a timetable for rehabilation or removal of existing buildings. We have indicated to them that it continues to he the position of the City of Orono that the property be sold as a park to be managed by the Suburban Park District. Schedule Changes As •rou may be aware as a result of personnel requirements for 1981 together with Fair Labor Standards that the Police Department is instituting a schedule change, effective February 2nd, that will place people from a 6-3 6-3 6-2 schedule to a rotating 5-2 schedule. Apart from setting regular days off in the schedule for a quarter instead of the current changing days off, it does not represent alteration in the hours that are being worked or quarterly rotation of the hours worked. Apparently the largest objection is the fact that there are a limited number of Saturdays and Sundays together off which :as been the case in that they have had such a grouping at least once every 5th week under the old schedule. Schedule changes were done for sound service provision reasons and to the extent that it makes good business sense we will see if patrol officer's concerns can be dccomodated within that.. if you have any :lucnttons please feel free to contact m
