Overtime Pay One and one-half times (1.5) the regular hourly rate shall be paid for all “hours worked” in excess of eight hours per day (except where the parties have agreed to modify the work schedule). For the purpose of this Section only, the regular hourly rate shall be determined by dividing the employee’s base annual salary as provided for in Appendix A, by 2080.

A regular day off (“RDO”), even when worked by an officer on call back, shall be considered a day off and shall be considered a break in the number of consecutive days worked. 9 An officer who is scheduled to work and works on his day off (call back), will still receive pay at the call back rate (one and one-half times the regular hourly rate) regardless of the number of consecutive days worked. Section 6.3. “Hours Worked” Holiday, personal, vacation, funeral, compensatory and sick time paid for but not worked during an employee’s regular work week shall be considered hours worked toward and employee’s required 2080 hours for a year but will not be considered hours worked for the purpose of computing overtime pay.

Section 6.5. Call Back Pay Employees who are called in to report to work outside their regularly scheduled working hours shall receive a minimum of two (2) hours or the actual number of hours worked at one and one-half (1.5) times their regular hourly rate, whichever is greater. Call-back in excess of two (2) hours shall be calculated from the time that the employee arrives at the police station to report to duty until he/she is relieved of duty. This provision does not pertain to an employee who has arrived at the police station prior to his/her duty day and is requested to go on duty early. Section 6.6. Shift Exchange Employees may temporarily exchange shifts for a stated purpose provided the exchange has been approved by the Chief or his designee. Such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or denied. Shift exchange is a privilege that shall not interfere with the operation of the City or result in the payment of overtime. Section 6.7. Shift Schedule The City will maintain the current work schedule during the term of this agreement. However, the parties may agree to establish a pilot program or alternative work schedule. If the parties agree to establish such a pilot program, the procedures governing implementation of that alternative work schedule shall be set forth in a side letter agreement between the parties. Section 6.8. “Compensatory Time” Employees who are entitled to overtime pay may elect compensatory time at time and one-half the overtime hours actually worked in lieu of payment, to a maximum accrual of eighty (80) hours, under the following conditions: A. The election to accrue compensatory time for overtime hours in lieu of payment must be made by an employee on a City approved form in accordance to department procedures. 10 The Chief of Police or his designee must approve the election. The election to accrue compensatory time includes the designation of holiday pay under Section 8.4 as compensatory time (on an hour for hour basis, converting overtime to straight time) in lieu of payment within the limits established by Section B. B. With the exception of 25 hours of which the employee may elect to carry over to the following year, an employee shall have until December 31st in which to use, or be paid, for any compensatory time hours accrued during that calendar year. Payment for the previous years unused compensatory time shall be paid to an officer no later than the first payroll in February. C. Compensatory time shall be granted upon the employee’s request at a time and in an amount, which are mutually agreed upon by the employee and the Chief of Police or his designee.

Employee contributions toward the unit cost for each health insurance plan option shall not increase by more than 15% from one year to the next during the term of this Agreement. The City may, at its discretion, add, drop, or otherwise change additional plan options other than those listed above on a yearly basis and implement these changes effective January 1, for each year the Agreement is in effect.

This program will be offered as long as allowed by the IRS and amended as necessary to reflect changes in the law. 12 Section 7.5. Employee Life Insurance The City shall provide a life insurance plan with a benefit of $70,000 for each covered employee. Section 7.6. Killed in the Line of Duty Benefits Health insurance coverage for a spouse and/or dependent(s) of an employee killed in the line of duty shall be provided and paid for by the City, for a period of up to 3 years or as otherwise provided by law, unless the spouse remarries or the spouse and/or dependent(s) are covered under a separate insurance policy, in which instance the City shall pay the remainder of that which is not covered by the spouse’s or dependent’s separate insurance policy or as otherwise required by law. Section 7.7. Retiree Health Savings (RHS) Plan The City shall establish and maintain a Retiree Health Savings (RHS) plan for use upon retirement toward eligible health-related expenses defined by the Internal Revenue Service. Annually, employee’s sick leave days accrued in excess of 90 days shall be paid at a rate of 75%. Upon retirement, or duty disability retirement, payment for unused sick leave shall be at a rate of 25% for the first 45 days and 75% for days over 45, and 100% pay for any unused vacation and personal days for a vested employee. These monies (annual payments and the payment upon retirement) shall be paid by the City on behalf of each contributing employee into an individual RHS account and made available upon retirement or duty disability retirement. Section 7.8. Vesting Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in order to be eligible for a payment into the RHS plan upon retirement an employee must have been vested in the Retiree Health Savings (RHS) plan. The term “vested” as used in relation to the Retiree Health Savings (RHS) Plan, means that prior to retirement, the employee accrued sick leave in excess of the amount specified in Section 8.7 and the excess balance was paid at the applicable rate into an RHS Account at least once on an annual basis, or the excess balance was reached as of December 31st of the year prior to payout, or the excess balance has been reached as of the employee’s retirement. Unless the employee has previously vested, as described herein, such employee will not be eligible for any leave payment into their RHS account upon retirement. Section 7.9. City Discretion to Select Carrier The manner in which the benefits covered in this Article will be provided shall be a matter of the City’s discretion; i.e., an insurance carrier of its choice, self-insuring or any other manner deemed appropriate. Section 7.10. Dental Insurance During the term of this Agreement the City agrees to offer employees the opportunity to participate in a dental insurance plan, under the same terms and cost sharing conditions that are offered to non-represented City employees, as the same may be changed from time to time by the City. 13 Section 7.11. Vision Insurance The City agrees to offer employees the opportunity to participate in a vision insurance plan, under the same terms and cost sharing conditions that are offered to non-represented City employees, as the same may be changed from time to time by the City.

Holidays The following days, or days substituted therefore, shall be considered to be holidays: New Year’s Day Martin Luther King, Jr. Birthday President’s Day Memorial Day Independence Day Labor Day Columbus Day Veterans’ Day Thanksgiving Day Friday after Thanksgiving Christmas Day Employees assigned to patrol duties shall observe the holiday on the day the City observes the holiday, except for New Year’s Day, Independence Day, and Christmas Day, on which the actual calendar day of the holiday shall be observed. All other employees shall observe the holiday on the day the City observes the holiday. Section 8.2. Holiday Scheduling Insofar as practical, normal work schedules will be revised so that employees will not be assigned to work on both Christmas Day (including Christmas Eve) and New Year’s Day (including New Year’s Eve). Departmental seniority shall prevail. Section 8.3. Holiday Pay Eligibility To be eligible for holiday pay the employee must meet the following conditions: (1) Work the employee’s scheduled work day before and the employee’s scheduled work day immediately following the holiday; (2) Report for work and actually work on the holiday if scheduled to work. Upon proper evidence submitted and, when circumstances warrant, the immediate supervisor may grant an excused absence for either the day before or the day immediately after the holiday. 14 Section 8.4. Scheduling Holidays, Holiday Pay and Holiday Overtime All employees will be scheduled as a holiday regular day off on City recognized holidays. Normal day off rotation would determine what employees are scheduled to work a specific holiday. If an employee works a holiday, the employee will receive regular pay plus time and one-half for all hours worked on scheduled holidays, including overtime hours. Section 8.5. Personal Days Leave Employees shall accrue personal leave in accordance with the following schedule: Continuous Years of Service Annual Accrual 1 to 4 Years 0 hours 5 to 9 Years 8 hours 10 to 14 Years 16 hours 15 to 19 Years 24 hours 20-24 Years 32 hours 25+ Years 40 hours Employees may accumulate a maximum personal leave balance up to 40 hours. Employees reaching the maximum personal leave accrual will cease to earn additional personal leave hours until their personal leave balance falls below the maximum accrual limit. Employees are informed on each bi-weekly payroll voucher of current leave balances. It is the responsibility of employees to monitor their individual personal leave balance and know how close they are to the maximum accrual. To be eligible for personal leave accrual an employee must be in the regular active employment of the City and shall have worked a minimum of 60% of the scheduled days of work exclusive of sick leave in the twelve months immediately prior to his anniversary date. Section 8.6. Pay Out of Accrued Personal Leave Upon Retirement Upon retirement or disability retirement, any accrued and unused personal leave shall be paid at 100% of the employee’s hourly rate of pay into a Retiree Health Savings (RHS) plan in accord with Article VII, Section 7.7. ARTICLE IX VACATIONS Section 9.1. Vacation Accrual Employees begin accruing vacation leave with first payroll period and each subsequent payroll period. Employees accrue vacation leave hours consistent with the number of paid hours of their regular workday. Vacation leave hours do not accrue bi-weekly if employees are absent on any leave “without pay”, while receiving disability payments (excluding PEDA). Annual 15 vacation leave hours are earned at a rate that corresponds to the number of completed years of continuous full-time service. Employees shall accrue vacation leave in accordance with the following schedule: Continuous Years of Service 1 Year to 4 Years Annual Accrual 80 hours 5 Years to 9 Years 120 hours 10 Years to 14 Years 136 hours 15 Years to 19 Years 160 hours 20 Years to 24 Years 184 hours 25 Years + 200 hours Section 9.2. Vacation Eligibility To be eligible for vacation leave accrual an employee must be in the regular active employment of the City and shall have worked a minimum of 60% of the scheduled days of work exclusive of sick leave in the twelve months immediately prior to his anniversary date. Section 9.3. Vacation Pay Vacation pay shall be computed at the regular straight time hourly rate of the classification in which an employee is employed immediately preceding his vacation. Section 9.4. Vacation Scheduling and Accumulation The vacation season shall be from January 1st through December 31st of any calendar year. Vacations shall insofar as possible, be granted by the City at times most desired by the employees. Vacations during any one period shall be limited to such numbers and classifications as not to interfere with the normal conduct of the City. When more vacations are requested than can be granted for any one period, preference will be given to the employee with the most seniority. The final right, however, of scheduling vacations is reserved to the City to insure the efficient and continuous operation of the City. Employees may accumulate a maximum vacation leave balance equal to one and a half (1.5) times their annual accrual (e.g., an annual accrual of 80 hours would allow a maximum balance of 120 hours; an annual accrual of 120 hours would allow a maximum balance of 180 hours; etc.). Employees reaching their maximum vacation leave accrual will cease to earn additional leave hours until their vacation leave balance falls below the maximum accrual limit. Employees are informed on each bi-weekly payroll voucher of current vacation balances. It is the responsibility of employees to monitor their individual vacation leave balances and know how close they are to their maximum limit. Section 9.5. Holidays During Vacations. When a holiday falls within an employee’s regularly scheduled vacation, he shall receive his holiday pay including time off and such day shall not be counted as a day of vacation. 16 Section 9.6. Pay Out of Accrued Vacation Upon Retirement Upon retirement or duty disability retirement, any accrued and unused vacation leave shall be paid at 100% of the employee’s hourly rate of pay into a Retiree Health Savings (RHS) plan in accord with Article VII, Section 7.7. ARTICLE X SICK LEAVE Section 10.1. Definition and Accumulation “Sick Leave” as used herein shall mean any illness or injury not compensated for by Workers’ Compensation. Each permanent full-time employee shall be eligible for sick leave of one day for each completed month of service cumulative up to a maximum of seven hundred and twenty (720) hours. Section 10.2. Accrual of Sick Leave An employee absent from work on legal holidays, during sick leave, vacation, for disability arising from injuries sustained in the course of his employment, or on special leave of absence with pay shall continue to accumulate sick leave at the regularly prescribed rate during such absence as though he was employed subject, however, to the maximum limitation herein provided. Section 10.3. Sick Leave Usage An employee eligible for sick leave with pay may use such sick leave upon approval of his department head for absence of regular working days due to illness, injury, exposure to contagious disease which could be communicated to other employees, or to illness or death in the employee’s immediate family. Any employee requesting sick leave shall inform the on duty shift commander of the fact and the reason therefore as soon as possible but no later than one hour prior to scheduled duty. Failure to do so may be cause for denial of sick leave and pay. To be eligible for sick leave with pay any absence of three (3) or more regular work days must be substantiated by a certificate from the employee’s physician, or such other evidence as the City may require. With regard to all sick leave, the City has the right to check on the welfare of the employee to determine the extent of illness. Absence for a fraction of a day that is chargeable to sick leave in accordance with these provisions shall be charged proportionately in an amount not smaller than one-fourth day. An employee reporting off sick on the day of any duty assignment shall have one day deducted from his total accumulated sick leave. Section 10.4. Sick Leave Incentive An employee shall be eligible for one (1) additional vacation day for each calendar six (6) month period (Jan 1-June 30, July 1- Dec 31) in which there is no absence (excluding duty injury) from work due to sick leave or a leave of absence without pay. 17 ARTICLE XI FUNERAL LEAVE Each employee shall be entitled to funeral leave of three (3) days following the death of any of the following relatives not chargeable to sick leave: mother, father, spouse, domestic partner (as defined in the State’s Civil Union Act, child (including miscarriage), brother, sister, mother-in-law, father-in-law, grandchild, grandparent, grandparent-in-law, brother-in-law, sisterin-law, step-mother, step-father, step-brother, step-sister, step-son and step-daughter. Requests to use funeral days other than as provided in this Article may be approved by the City Manager upon the recommendation of the Chief of Police or his designee. An employee shall be paid for eight (8) hours at his regular straight time hourly rate for only those days taken for funeral leave which fall on a regularly scheduled work day. ARTICLE XII LEAVES OF ABSENCE Section 12.1. Family and Medical Leave The City will follow its policy in adherence to the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), regarding the coverage of eligible employees, general leave requirements, notice and certification, job benefits and protection, substitution of paid leave, and other applicable provisions. In addition, the City will follow its policy on Extended Medical Leave. The City will provide the Union with thirty (30) days’ notice prior to implementing any change to these policies. Section 12.2. Unpaid Leave of Absence Employees may request an unpaid leave of absence for personal reasons other than medical, military, or for outside employment. Requests will be reviewed by both the Police Chief and Director of Human Resources, and then forwarded with a recommendation to the City Manager for approval. Requests will be considered on a case-by-case basis reviewing operational needs. Benefits will not be accrued or be provided to employees on an approved unpaid leave of absence. Existing accrued leave balances are held and carried over during the period of the unpaid leave resuming upon the employee’s return to work. All anniversary dates will be adjusted by an amount of time equal to the number of days on an approved unpaid leave. Employees on an unpaid leave of absence for greater than thirty (30) days may continue to participate in the City’s health benefit insurance program with the payment of the full monthly premiums (i.e. employer and employee premium). Re-employment is not guaranteed following unpaid leaves of absence in excess of thirty (30) days. 18 Section 12.3. Military Leave. The City shall comply with applicable State and Federal laws as they pertain employees requiring leave to fulfill their Reserve or the National Guard obligations. The City retains the right to exercise its full rights under these laws as set forth in its policy on Military Leave and will provide the Union with thirty (30) days’ notice prior to implementing any change to this policy. ARTICLE XIII MISCELLANEOUS Section 13.1. Board of Fire and Police Commissioners The City agrees that, during the term of this Agreement it will not repeal its Board of Fire and Police Commissioners Act. Section 13.2. Chapter Business After the conclusion of roll call, and provided that reasonable advance notice is given to the Commander or designee by a Chapter Officer of the Des Plaines Chapter and further provided that the Commander or designee consents, any such local Chapter officer may discuss Chapter business at the station with any other officer, so long as all police officers are at their respective posts of duty promptly at the beginning of their shift. It is understood and agreed that the required consent of the Commander or designee will not be withheld unreasonably by him. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no such discussion shall be allowed and any discussion in progress may be ordered terminated if; in the reasonable judgment of the Commander, a police related emergency exists. Section 13.3. Travel Expense Reimbursement In the event an employee is required to attend a school requiring overnight stay, with the department’s approval, and where the meals are not provided, he/she shall receive the same rates received by all other employees of the City. No money for meals will be provided for schools to which an employee commutes on a daily basis. In addition, any employee attending school as aforesaid, shall be entitled to be reimbursed a sum equal to the IRS allowance per mile if the Chief or other appropriate superior grants permission for such employee to use his own personal automobile in going to or from such school. If the school is two (2) weeks or longer in duration, the employee will be reimbursed for travel for one (1) vehicle for one (1) round trip during the course of the school. Out-of-state air travel for schools of two (2) weeks or longer will be decided on a case-by-case basis. Section 13.4. Training Time An employee working the midnight shift., 2200 – 0630 hours, will not be subject to a one (1) day training course during this shift of duty, unless he/she voluntarily attends the training course. Any employee on the midnight shift who attends a training course of two (2) days or more and who is required to report to duty less than eight (8) hours between the end of the instruction day and the start of the midnight shift shall be paid time and a half for any hours less than the eight (8) hours between assignments. 19 Section 13.5. Alcohol & Substance Abuse Policy The City’s Alcohol and Substance Abuse Policy is a part of this Agreement in its entirety as an addendum to this Agreement. Section 13.6. Labor Management Conference The Union and the City agree that in the interest of efficient management and harmonious employee relations, quarterly meetings may be held if mutually agreed between the Union President and the Police Chief or his designee. The Labor Management Conference shall be attended by four (4) City representatives appointed by the Police Chief and four (4) Union representatives appointed by the Union President. Such quarterly meetings may be requested by either party at least seven (7) days in advance by placing in writing a request to the other for a “labor-management conference” and expressly providing the agenda for such meeting. Such meetings and locations, if mutually agreed upon, shall be limited to: (a) discussion on the implementation and general administration of this Agreement; (b) a sharing of general information of interest to the parties; (c) notifying the Union of changes in conditions of employment contemplated by the City which may affect employees; and (d) safety and health issues. It is expressly understood and agreed that such meetings shall be exclusive of the grievance procedure. Specific grievances being processed under the grievance procedure shall not be considered at “labor-management conferences” nor shall negotiations for the purpose of altering any or all of the terms of this Agreement be carried on at such meetings, with the exception of the side letter regarding work hours. Section 13.7. Seniority Seniority is defined as the length of time from the last date of beginning continuous fulltime employment as a sworn peace officer in the Police Department of the City.

Uniform Peace Officer’s Disciplinary Act The parties agree that the provisions of the Uniform Peace Officer’s Disciplinary Act, 50 ILCS 725/1 et. Seq., are hereby incorporated as part of this Agreement as the same may be amended from time-to-time Section 14.2. Right to Representation The City agrees that bargaining unit employees shall be afforded “Weingarten Rights” under the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act. ARTICLE XV COMPLETE AGREEMENT The parties acknowledge that during the negotiations which resulted in this Agreement, each had the unlimited right and opportunity to make demands and proposals with respect to any subject or matter not removed by law from the area of collective bargaining, and that all understandings and agreement arrived at by the parties after the exercise of that right and opportunity are set forth in this Agreement.

Officer Date Chief of Police Date 25 SIDE LETTER OF AGREEMENT BETWEEN CITY OF DES PLAINES AND METROPOLITAN ALLIANCE OF POLICE, DES PLAINES POLICE CHAPTER #240 WHEREAS, the parties have reached a mutual agreement for an eight and one-half (8 ½) hour work-day shift, do hereby agree to amend and modify the current collective bargaining agreement, insofar as the below listed issues contradict any terms of said agreement: 1. In accordance with Section 6.7 of the 2022 - 2025 collective bargaining agreement, the parties acknowledge and agree the period of an eight and one-half (8 ½) hour workday shift will commence on or about February 1st, 2008, and will continue through term of the next collective bargaining agreement. If a new contract is not ratified by the end of his collective bargaining agreement, the side letter will continue until a new contract is ratified. If the parties have not reached agreement on a work schedule established in a side letter to that contract, the matter shall be submitted to interest arbitration under Section 14 of the Act. 2. The parties acknowledge and agree that the eight and one-half (8 ½) hour workday shift shall be for all officers working regular patrol. Day off requests made outside of the officers’ normal rotation must be submitted via city email. 3. The parties acknowledge and agree that a normal workday will consist of eight and one-half (8 ½) hours, which includes one-half (½) hour paid lunch break. The workday schedule will be based on a five-two/five-three day off schedule in a 15 day work period. Officers working a sixth consecutive day will be compensated at one and one half the officers’ regular straight time hourly rate of pay unless agreed upon by the officer and the city. The shifts, workdays and hours assigned to officers will be based on a yearly calendar schedule. 4. Holidays paid and worked shall be assigned as an eight (8) hour workday. Hours worked in excess of eight and one-half (8 ½) hours on a normal workday or 92 hours in the 15-day work period will be paid on the basis of one and one-half times the officer’s regular straighttime hourly rate of pay. Hours worked in excess of eight (8) hours on a holiday will be paid on the basis of two and one-half the officer’s regular straight-time hourly rate of pay. Callback on a Holiday will be treated the same as a holiday worked. 5. Schedules can only be changed when agreed upon by the officer and the City. In the event of an emergency (natural disaster, major incident), schedules can be changed without prior notification. 6. Shift assignment will be based on seniority, divided by a permanent midnight shift (2200-0630), and a monthly rotation between the dayshift (0600-1430) and the evening shift (1400-2230). Officers will be required to submit their shift preference by Oct 30th, for the year following. Officers in specialty positions, including Evidence Technicians, TRT, NIPAS, and Field Training Officers, are subject to the discretion of the Police Chief to meet shift staffing needs. If conflict arises within a specialty position, seniority will prevail. Scheduling shifts based on seniority will only be considered for the start of the calendar year. If an officer moves or is assigned to the Patrol Division after the start of the year, he/she will be placed dependent on manpower strength. The power shift (1630-0100) will be staffed on a voluntary basis. If there are not enough volunteers, the Chief of Police or his designee can assign an officer to the power shift based on seniority. 7. The parties acknowledge and agree that all benefit time, such as vacation, sick leave, funeral leave, personal days, bonus days, and holiday pay shall be used as eight (8) hours. Officers are required to work 2080 hours per year. An officer must make up the balance of hours, either by using compensatory time or reducing their benefit time (vacation/personal/bonus day/comp time/bank time) saved up to that point if their annual total is less than 2080 hours. 8. The parties acknowledge and agree that all training and all schools shall be paid and accounted for as a complete eight and one-half (8 ½) hour workday. 9. The parties acknowledge and agree that probationary officers engaged in the field training program shall be subject to the rotation of the field training officer he/she is assigned to. Additional day(s) off requested by the probationary officer shall be subject to the discretion of the probationary officer’s assigned Watch Commander. Upon completion of the field training program, officers shall be assigned to a shift or rotation of shifts until off probation at the discretion of the Chief of Police or his designee. 26 METROPOLITAN ALLIANCE OF POLICE POL E HAPTER #240 DES PLAll By: By: £Lia David Anderson, Chief of Police, City of Des Plaines 27 SIDE LETTER OF AGREEJ\1ENT BETWEEN CITY OF DES PLAINES AND l\1ETROPOLITAN ALLIANCE OF POLICE, DES PLAINES POLICE CHAPTER #240 WHEREAS, during bargaining on a successor contract to the current collective bargaining agreement, the parties have reached a mutual agreement on the selection process, term of employment and specialty pay as it pertains to the position of Task Force Officer (TFO); and WHEREAS, an outside government agency is responsible for making a final decision on the person appointed to the Task Force Officer position; NOW, THEREFORE, be it resolved that the parties do hereby agree to the following: TASK FORCE OFFICER- SELECTION PROCESS, TERMS OF EMPLOYJ\1ENT AND SPECIALTY PAY When a Task Force Officer position becomes available, the Police Chief or designees will solicit qualified candidates and recommend three (3) candidates to the outside agency who will then make the final determination as to the selection of the TFO.

METROPOLITAL ALLIANCE OF POLICE DES PLAINES POLICE CHAPTER #240 CITY OF DES PLAINES, A Municipal : 12;W David Anderson, Chief of Police Date: -------"=~ L......c,t).__..,_J'--'------'/4==---o=-----=cJ.d ----=.,__ _ __ 28 SIDE LETTER OF AGREEMENT DRUG TESTING FOLLOWING OFFICER INVOLVED SHOOTINGS The City of Des Plaines (“City”), the Metropolitan Alliance of Police Des Plaines Police Chapter # 240, referred to herein as the “Union”) hereby agree to the following policy to be implemented in accordance with Illinois Public Act 100-389: 1. The Union agrees that its members shall be required to abide by the City’s Policy regarding “Officer Involved Shooting and Death” including the section that requires each officer who is involved in an officer involved shooting to submit to drug and alcohol testing, so long as such testing is required by Public Act 100-389 or any similar state law. 2. For the purpose of clarity, the parties agree that a person “involved in” an officer involved shooting is defined to mean any officer who discharged a firearm thereby causing injury or death to a person or persons. If multiple officers discharged their firearm and it is unclear whose bullet struck the person or persons, then all officers who discharged their firearm in the direction of the subject shall be required to submit to drug and alcohol testing. 3. The parties agree that the term “involved in” an officer-involved shooting does not include officers who did not discharge their weapon, even if they were providing other forms of support and assistance during the call. Nor does the term “involved in” include officers who discharged their weapons when it is undeniably clear their projectiles did not actually strike any person or persons. 4. The parties agree that the provisions of the collective bargaining agreement regarding drug testing and standards for discipline shall regulate the drug testing procedures and the consequences for any positive drug test results. 5. The parties agree that any drug or alcohol test required pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered a compelled, non-voluntary drug or alcohol test under threat of disciplinary action. Such testing shall only be done by urinalysis or breathalyzer. Blood tests shall only be 29 administered with a warrant, unless the officer otherwise consents. This does not limit the City's right to obtain test results via other available legal process.
