The Town of Dukan Police Commission approved a contract provision April 15 to raise the extra-duty pay rate for officers to the same level as the sergeant overtime rate, with implementation conditioned on ratification by the police union and the Town Council.
Commission leaders reported the item came out of executive session during negotiations on the proposed police-union contract. The commission’s vote was described as conditional: the change will not take effect until both the union and the council ratify the overall contract.
No specific vote tally or names of mover and seconder were recorded in the public transcript; the commission approved the measure by voice vote and documented that ratification by bargaining parties is required before the new rate becomes effective.
