ARTICLE 17 .......... SMOKING POLICY
17.1 The provisions of Human Resources Policy 3-50-05, Smoking Policy, will apply to employees
represented by Bremerton Police Management Association., with the following exception:
17.1.1 Employees may smoke outside but must be at least twenty-five feet (25') from the
entrance to any Police Department facility, pursuant to State law.
ARTICLE 18 .......... POLICE OFFICERS' BILL OF RIGHTS
The wide ranging powers and duties given to the Police Department and its members involve them in all
manner of contacts and relationships with the public. Of these contacts come many questions concerning
the actions of inembers of the force. These questions often require immediate investigation by superior
officers designated by the Chief of the Bremerton Police Department. In an effort to insure that these
investigations are conducted in a manner which is conducive to good order and discipline, the following
guidelines are promulgated:
18.1 Internal Investigation Defined - For the purposes of this Appendix, the term "internal
investigation" means an investigation by or under the authority of the Chief of Police of activities,
circumstances or events pertaining to the conduct or acts of a City law enforcement employee.
Such investigation shall be deemed a "criminal investigation" where it is suspected that such
conduct or acts are or may be the basis for filing a criminal charge against such employee, and
shall be deemed a "major investigation" where it is suspected that such conduct or acts may also or
alternatively be the basis for discharge, suspension or other discipline of such employee.
18.2 Employee Advised of Alleged Misconduct - Every employee who becomes the subject of an
internal investigation shall be advised at the time of any interview in connection therewith that, as
the case may be, (s)he is suspected of:
18.2.1 Committing a criminal offense.
18.2.2 Misconduct which would be grounds for termination, suspension, or other
disciplinary action; or that (s)he may be qualified for continued employment with
the Police Department. At the time of the interview such employee shall also be
informed of the name of the officer in charge of the investigation and the name of
the officer who will be conducting the interview.
18.3 Representation by Counsel - Any employee who becomes the subject of a criminal investigation
may have legal counsel present during all interviews of such employee. Such representation by
Collective Bazgaining Agreement—Bremerton Police Management Association
January l,2016 through December 31,2017
Page 12 of I S
counsel shall be confined to counseling and shall not be authority for any participation by counsel
in the investigation.
18.4 Employee to be Informed in Writing-Recorded Interviews - In the case of any major
investigation and before any interview commences, the employee to be interviewed shall be
informed in writing of the nature of the investigation including information necessary to
_ reasonably appraise him/her of the allegations of any complaint and (s)he shall be afforded an
opporlunity and facilities to contact and consult privately with an attorney of his/her own choosing
before being interviewed.
Such employee may request that the interview be recorded, either mechanically or by a
stenographer, and no questions shall be asked "off the record". Upon request, the employee under
investigation shall be provided an exact copy of any written statement (s)he has signed and a
verbatim transcript of any interview of such employee.
18.5 Interviewing Procedures - Interviews shall be held at a reasonable hour and preferably when the
employee to be interviewed is on duty unless the exigencies of the interview indicate otherwise.
Whenever possible, interviews shall be scheduled during the normal work day of the City.
Interviewing shall be completed within a reasonable time and shall be accomplished under
circumstances devoid of intimation or coercion. The employee being interviewed shall be entitled
to such intermissions as (s)he shall request for personal necessities, meals, telephone calls, and rest
periods. All interviewing shall be limited to the conduct or acts of the employee under
investigation which form or may form the basis for disciplinary action, termination of employment
or the filing of a criminal charge.
18.6 Intimidation of Employee Prohibited - No employee under investigation shall, as a guise for
obtaining such employee's resignation, be falsely threatened with dismissal or other disciplinary
action should (s)he refuse to resign, nor shall (s)he be subjected to abusive language or in any
other manner intimated or offered promises or reward as an inducement to answer questions.
ARTICLE 19.......... MANAGEMENT CERTIFICATIONS
19.1 An employee who currently holds or obtains management certifications through the
Washington State Criminal Justice Training Commission will receive additional compensation
for each certification as listed below:
Middle Management Certification ° One point seven-five percent(1.75%)

Maximum additional compensation is capped at 4.25%
ARTICLE 20 ............LIFE INSURANCE/MEDICAL SAVINGS ACCOUNT
20.1 LIFE INSURANCE - The City shall provide life insurance coverage in an amount equal to two
hundred thousand ($200,000) with a mutually agreed upon carrier. In the event that the Bremerton Police

20.2 RETIREMENT MEDICAL SAVINGS ACCOUNTS: The City shall contribute one hundred
dollars ($100.00) per month on behalf of each employee to a Health Retirement Savings Account

negotiations. The parties will negotiate a reduction in the amount that is contributed to the HRA and a way
to compensate employees for the amount of the reduction.
20.3 The City shall contribute a lump sum of one thousand one hundred and seventy five dollars
($1,175.00) for 2016 into each employee's Health Retirement/Savings Account. This is in addition

21.1 In the event that any provision of this Agreement is held invalid by operation of law or by any
tribunal of competent jurisdiction, or if compliance with or enforcement of any Article should be
restrained by such tribunal pending a final determination as to its validity, the remaining
provisions of this Agreement shall not be held invalid and shall remain in full force and effect. The
Association and the City shall immediately meet and attempt to renegotiate any provision found
invalid.
ARTICLE 22 ............ ENTIRE AGREEMENT
22.1 The Association and the City acknowledge that each has had the unlimited right and opportunity
to make proposals with respect to any matter deemed a proper subject for collective bargaining.

Association each voluntarily and unqualifiedly agree to waive the right to oblige the other party to
bargain with respect to any subject or matter not specifically covered by the Articles of this
Agreement during the term of this Agreement, except as mutually agreed upon.
ARTICLE 23 ............ CONFLICTING PROVISIONS
23.1 In the event that any provision of this Agreement is found to be in conflict with any other
Resolution, Ordinance, Policy, Regulation or Rule of the City, the provision of this agreement
shall prevail.
ARTICLE 24 ............ TERM
This Agreement shall become effective January 1, 2016 contingent upon ratification by both parties, shall
remain in effect through December 31, 2017, and may be extended thereafter by mutual agreement. The
