PBA Time Pool. The City agrees to establish a PBA “time pool.” The “time pool” may be used by the PBA representatives and members for attendance at PBA related functions such as state or local conferences, conventions, board meetings, legislative activities, educational seminars, or such other purposes as agreed upon between the PBA and the Chief of Police. The time pool may also be used by members for medical appointments related to on-the-job injuries/illnesses once the Occupational Disability Leave (ODL) benefit has been exhausted, provided that the PBA may implement a per member and/or per year cap on the time pool being used as an ODL supplement and is responsible for tracking any established limits. The use of the “time pool” is subject to the prior approval of the Chief of Police, but said approval shall not be unreasonably denied or withheld. Each bargaining unit employee shall fund three (3) hours per year to the “time pool” from accrued vacation leave. All unused time in the “time pool” shall be carried over year to year, and unused leave “time pool” shall have no cash value.
