[Amended 6-16-2011 by Ord. No. 898]
Whenever the Chief of Police or his designee determines that an extra-duty assignment shall be performed, such assignment shall first be offered to all eligible members of the Collective Bargaining Unit, hereinafter referred to as CBU. If the eligible members of the CBU refuse or are otherwise unable to work the assignment, it may be offered to other members of the Police Department not covered by the CBU.
A party requesting an extra-duty assignment, the Chief of Police or his designee shall enter into an agreement providing for extra-duty assignments for which the Borough shall be compensated at the rate set from time to time by resolution. Such agreements shall be in accordance with the following standards:
A. 
The party requesting the assignment shall execute and deliver an agreement in a form approved by the Borough Council by resolution from time to time. The Chief of Police or his designee shall be authorized to execute any such agreement, provided that it has been submitted in the form approved by resolution.
B. 
The Borough shall be responsible to provide all necessary claims for damage for personal injury, including death or damage to property, which may arise or result from the Borough's performance under the contract.
C. 
The party requesting the assignment of police officers shall indemnify and hold harmless the Borough from any and all claims made by said police officers for injury or illness while performing extra-duty assignments for said party. In addition, the party shall hold the Borough harmless from any and all claims made by any third party for injury, illness or damage to property arising out of the extra-duty assignment of a police officer.
D. 
Any and all extra-duty assignments shall be determined and approved by the Chief of Police or his designee. The Chief of Police or his designee may assign a patrol vehicle for use in performing extra-duty if and in the event it is determined that the use of a patrol vehicle is necessary to perform the contracted duty.
E. 
The work to be performed shall be considered "extra-duty assignment from independent contractors" and will not be considered a regular-duty assignment. The assignment of extra-duty assignments may be designated by the Chief of Police to any police officer as may be necessary.
A. 
Payments due under such an agreement pursuant to an emergency as designated by the Police Chief or his designee shall be paid 15 days from the date of billing.
B. 
When a party desires to contract with the Borough of Oceanport for needed extra-duty services by a police officer, an escrow shall be posted based on the rates set forth per resolution, made payable to the Borough of Oceanport. The Borough Administrator and Chief of Police are hereby authorized to establish such rules and regulations that are necessary to implement this provision. The escrow amount shall be determined by the CFO in conjunction with the Police Chief.
C. 
Rates for extra-duty assignments will be negotiated between the Collective Bargaining Unit and the Borough of Oceanport and shall be set by resolution.
