a plane crash, riot, union strike, or other civil emergencies.

consultation with the CITY Police Chief, will establish the level of service to be
provided.
5.9 Reconciliation. Annual adjustments will be made in March of each year in such a way that if
CITY has a positive balance at year-end of the previous calendar year, it will receive a credit,

special pay benefits costs, and LESU costs.

overtime, salary, special pay, and benefits attributable to CiTY and reconciling that figure to
