Item 4: 12/15/20 McGiverin: Ordered, that in accordance with M.G.L. Chapter 44 Sec. 53A, the City Council hereby accepts the provisions of the “FY2021 EDWARD BYRNE MEMORIAL JUSTICE (JAG)” grant and authorizes the establishment of a Fund or other method appropriate for the accounting of the receipts and expenditures of all resources associated with the administration of said grant.

Item 5: 12/15/20 Murphy, Sullivan: Ordered that the police and fire chiefs appear before the finance committee to document how much of the police overtime total of $266, 682 expended through the end of October was to cover for vacations, sick time, injured on duty status, and grant related detail. The same information is requested for the fire department and the expenditure of $157,305 through October. In both cases, how many persons per shift being absent leads to use of overtime? The goal of this order is to determine if we are at our most cost effective staffing levels without jeopardizing public safety.
