In order for an employee to be eligible for the Supervisory POST Certificate Pay, he/she must also simultaneously hold and successfully pass probation for the rank of sergeant.

POST Certificate Pay will commence the first full month following POST certification, Department Head recommendation, and approval by the City Manager/Personnel Committee. The POST Certificate Pay is not cumulative, shall be paid for the full month just ending, and shall discontinue on the effective date that an employee is no longer holding the rank of Police Sergeant. POST Certificate Pay shall not be paid to a member who is placed on Administrative Leave as provided for in ARTICLE 7.14 of this MOU. For those members qualifying for the Supervisory POST Certificate Pay, it is not retroactive and becomes effective November 1, 2017 or the first full month after ratification of the agreement, whichever is later.
