The local school board, any private entity or
individual may hire police officers for extra-duty assignments. Applications
describing the specific nature of the services being requested shall
be submitted to the Chief of Police or his designee who shall determine
the propriety of such request. Extra-duty assignments that are approved
shall be made available to members of the Police Department who may
wish to engage in such activities.
Hourly rates for extra-duty assignments shall
be as follows:
A. For use of police personnel, an amount equivalent
to twice (double time) the regular rate of the patrol officer's top
pay for the contract year; and
B. The rate for Haddon Township governmental agencies,
educational and bona fide Haddon Township civic associations will
be a flat rate of $125 per employee per outside employment event;
and
C. A charge of 20% of the total costs to be paid to the
Township to cover the administrative cost of providing such services;
and
D. If applicable, a vehicle maintenance cost of $50 per
car per job.
The Chief Financial Officer shall pay police
personnel performing extra-duty assignments at the established hourly
rate for extra-duty assignments, less regular payroll deductions.
Payment to police personnel shall be made during the second regular
pay period following the performance of any extra duty assignment.
The performance of any extra-duty assignment
is contingent upon the Township's ability to provide the necessary
manpower through the employment of off-duty police personnel. In the
event that the Police Department fails to perform or complete any
extra-duty assignment, the Township's liability shall be limited to
refunding any fee or portion thereof received as payment for such
services.
