Those Damn Coppers
We're already the bad guys again - and the contract hasn't even been approved by the Board of Directors to go out for a vote:
- Mayor Rahm Emanuel may borrow more money to come up with the $65 million or so the city will need to cover police back pay if a newly proposed contract is approved, the city’s top budget official said Tuesday.
Budget Director Alexandra Holt did not say how much the city will need to borrow, but indicated it would be a short-term loan paid back by mid-2017, when the new police contract would expire.
That'll be some interesting accounting. But damn those coppers making Rahm borrow money again. If only there was a spare $65 million lying around - like that money DePaul got to pay for a third of that new stadium for a team that hasn't made the NCAA tourney in years. Or that "Maggie Daley Park" that's a cover for an underground parking structure that can't stop leaking or collapsing.

Slash the number of aldermen in half and voila you have about 40 million right there...
Or that 'River Walk', or that Lake Front Bike path bridge...
Has anyone noticed how city services have dramatically improved as the election draws closer? Could the Democrats be nervous?
Or that Bloomingdale, uh, 606, uh, train line that's GOT to be a bike trail.
To the tune of at least NINETY-FIVE MILLION dollars.
Naaah. this contract thru some final last hour heroics led be Rahm will be settled just before the polls open.
Then, after the ballots are counted and the supreme court checks in those greedy coppers will want the city to keep its promises and the contract that was a done deal will be torn up. And it's all those greedy coppers fault. Rahm had it fixed and they ruined everything...
/sarc
Rham should borrow the money from his brother. If he can afford $500,000 per year for Lakers season tickets I'm sure he'd chip in to help his bro out.
Oh, the heart-break of it all....ugly DePaul Stadium and Maggie Park.....can't believe Rahm is dumb enough to build these false face tributes and pay-backs. Heck, he just might lose the election over them.
Using the same crime is down broken windows crime fighting mythology math the loan will be paid by 2017
Hahahaha..
"Or that Maggie Daley Park..."
$55 million for another park we don't need. WHY?
Here an idea, instead of one park we don't need split up that money three or four ways and get matching grants from three or four major hospitals. Then at each hospital build a spa like beast cancer detection clinic and name them after Maggie Daley. Each one can have a mini-park because there as places where serious contemplation and family discussions can take place.
That's what to do with that money.
Proposal 55 n Out, or, free healthcare with 29 and a day was still on the table when Dean came in and changed everything around. Now I'm fuked. Actually most of us will be maxed out and not yet 55!
This is something the old regime was clinging onto for us. I don't see it in the new contract. I hope the new negotiating committee is still working on it.
I personally don't know of one person who is voting yes to this contract anyway.
the bad news of a loan to cover the contract serves to insure against anybody even thinking of voting down that contract...
rahm: I'll take the heat for this raise and retro but you guys dare reject it and it's on you.
Wages, benefits, backpay for services?
You ungrateful louts should be paying for the privilege of working for the Greatest City in the Midwest. You should feel honored to serve the fine citizens of Southside Chicago.
ahhh they have the money and we can get more if we vote it down and go to a arbitrator..
It is obvious that you are not aware of the details of the big picture.
"Mayor Rahm Emanuel may borrow more money to come up with the $65 million or so the city will need to cover police back pay"
He never planned and budgeted the money for the backpay? That shows you how much you are respected.
Rahm stiffs you and then cannot find the money to make it good a year later?
Talk about making us look like a bunch of greedy coppers. $ has to be borrowed to cover what is owed to us! Yet time and time again SCC points out article after article of "hidden" money magically appearing and going towards pet projects and other fiscal bullshit. And not one god damn reporter in this city has the balls to look into it. SCC gave you the info at!
once again ANOTHER homicide in 016. Ill tell ya what, I love all the northsiders who call mt greenwood, "Mt. Greesewood" or Mt. Hillbilly" etc.. but Ive never heard of a single person being shot and killed while sitting in a car at 1am in my neighborhood. Ahhh, I love going up into 016 sometimes. All the residents walking and driving around with blinders on pretending the gang bangers are not living among them.. If I have to see thugs or the animal at least I know they are just walking or driving through.. not living near me. so 016 tell me, how many homicides is that for you guys now in your "great neighborhood".. Sell now, move south while you can. 016 is getting as bad as clearing and Garfield ridge.. those places might as well be summit. ahahahahahahaha, I love watching the promised land squirm and get so mad... Ok lets hear all the defensive comments about mt greenwood though, all I know is that I will be sleeping safely and soundly like I have been for the past 45 years in my clean non violent gangbanger free neighborhood.
O.T. - I heard Mark Donahoe applied to get unemployment from FOP, because he got dismissed as the FOP lobbyist. When does it end Mark? $150,000 a year was not enough under Shields? $180,000 was not enough when you (Donahoe) were FOP President. Mark you no longer run the FOP! All the inside guys were getting Capts. pay selling their BFDs, and Pers. days at Capts. rate under Donahoe plus getting Supv. quarterly. They were selling vacation days at the same rate, stating they never took a furlough. Mark you were the leader during this! Its official B.D. just as you put about your FOP candidacy on your website. Mark Good luck on getting unemployment, considering you get a pension, and get a $7,200 yearly stipend from FOP. Solve it-Resign!
Tif money
Yeah and a guy was just shot and killed at Waveland and Laramie. And guess what? Most cars in the district are down on it because several cars are down for the night because of no manpower. That leaves Edison Park, Edgebrook, Sauganash, and Wildwood with no police service and or protection. Hire some damn cops Rahm!
Plenty of money in TIF districts!!
What happened to the 2.1 billion dollars from the bonds that the city sold last year? How about the 1.7 billion in the TIF accounts?
From The Onion Field movie
[last lines]
Boy piper: Yeah, I think I'll play the bagpipes as long as I live.
Chrissie Campbell: I think that's a lovely idea.

Thx to all who showed at the dedication
Cant Rahm simply cut $65 million from CHA for section 8 housing??
You would think paying for police protection was more important than housing mamma who made bad choices and has 8 kids/ 5 different dads.
CHA's budget is $800 million.
Less than 2 years and Im done. This city is a disgusting terlet.
Hey, hey, to all you bruce rauner fans out there- look at what rahm is doing for the guy who made him rich! Setting the stage to remind the citizens that the public sector workers and their pensions are he problem. SCC is right on with the money being spent on the wrong bullshit, but we all knew that was by design. Que your guy bruce to come in, use rahms help and rhetoric to dissolve pensions in Illinois and Chicago. Don't make yourself a shit sandwich then eat it and say this tastes bad. Quinn is an idiot but can be swayed and not malicious. Voting between and idiot and putting your balls in a vice, ill go with the idiot.
How about building the stadium in Maggie park and save some money. You combine the parking and pull in more money. Did you ever run to your car at night in the Monroe garage? You could fire a canon through it and not hit anybody. Its creepy.
Wait till he has to pony up for our pensions!
I pretty much gave up on the public caring about the police. Let the firemen have all that GLORY.
I cannot wait till my SGT. gets one of those new squad cars so i can drive the one he has beat up for years.
Look at the books for yourself when u are there on Tues to vote this contract down. they didn't sell furlo days under Cappereli, he would never allow that!! But the tune of $150k is correct and they still have not shown they took pay "cuts". Killmer "Kilo" talks to us worse that AguLIAR! Hey buddy, i'm a policeman like you...oh wait...u were never a policeman.
Off Topic: Was that an MS-13 attack with a machete at the CTA on Kedzie yesterday injuring two?
Channel 7 had video.
Arrests were made and mugshots posted and one of the offenders had a tattoo encircling his neck.
Carrying machetes they were probably a bunch of roving landscapers.
We will need ISIS doing beheadings in Horner Park before Rahm hires some police.
You can't get Rahm or McCarthy to come up with a straight answer on police manpower numbers.

Condolences to the two officer's who lost their daughter yesterday. I am very sorry for your loss.

A lot of coppers in the same boat. Maybe if Disability Dean wasn't out of touch with the membership, he would have known this would have been a great benefit to a lot of PO's 29 + day, less than 55. And it benefits the city, we're the one's they have to pay top dollar.

Did you pay attention at all during the Sgt.'s contract and their loss at arbitration?
Sgt.'s, Lt.'s, Capt.'s, and fireman ALL gave this up in contract talks. When the rank and file Sgt.'s voted it down the arbitrator still took it away. Thank Jimmy Ade and his team for this.
Hey mt greenwood asshole - 016 is a huge district that includes numerous different neighborhoods. That homicide happened no where near edison park, which also happens to be surrounded by many nice suburbs to shop in or send your kids to school. How are the suburbs around mr greenwood, asshole?
I'm not CPD nor are my friends. I don't know of a single person who is falling for Rahm's trying to pin this on the police BS.
Most everyone is sick of blaming it on the City employees. That day is long past.
We're sick of having our services cut, City priorities that do not make sense, and the increasing danger though-out the City. I don't anyone who is willing to admit they would vote for Rahm. I cannot imagine that changing over the next few months.
The press never mentions the slush fund in the Tiff accounts. These accounts fill up every year. All these funds can be spent at the discretion of the administration.
18 months of TIFF would settle the outstanding pension liabilities. An additional year would settle all of the other bills and suits the pols have let build up.
After that they can go back to build bike paths to nowhere, and taking care of the Walsh, Daley, Guiterrez, Burke , Mell ,etc families...

Suburbs owe 23,000,000 , still 50 alderman
Money is there , make city pay that $ to pension fund in 2015.
To all those nay sayers about the contract, I'm just curious what would be a fair contract in your eyes?

What are you smoking or are you drinking that hillbilly hooch? I live in Mt. Hillbilly and have a section eight residence right next door to me. There is gang graffiti in my alley and the city worker kids are getting to be real assholes too! It's time you stopped working all that overtime and got some rest so you could see what the area really looks like. Maybe your kids are some of the assholes. They learn by example!
Oat go
Pres fails to address shortage of manpower
In his talks about contract
No mention of the extra 5 points for cps students , no reduction in Merit Promotions , nothing about Officer Safety , yes we need two man cars , extra wagons , no down cars and less police officers assigned to office duty .
Vote No , Vote No
The Sergeants voted No , total bs , we get nada ,
Sounds like he hasn't patrolled the back alleys in a one man car recently .
And all you clowns want to vote yes to the scraps that Rahm told Dean and the boys over at FLOP to dangle over our heads.
You cry about manpower.
You bitch about not being able to get time due.
You moan that everyone else has gotten better raises and contracts than us.
You can't believe that you're gonna get shitty furlos because we're going to pick by watch again.
But then what do you do?
You roll over every time and allow the city to go balls deep in your butt.
"Crime rates are at an all-time low! Our guys and girls are learning to do more with less! We've eliminated waste and reapplied our resources to where they've achieved the most results! " .....
THEN PAY US WHAT WE ARE WORTH.
FUND OUR PENSION TO THE LEVELS AS MANDATED BY LAW.
QUIT INSULTING US CONTRACT AFTER CONTRACT.
Everyone talks a big game yet no one ever seems to conjure up the balls to do anything about it. I wish I had a nickel for every time someone got screwed over at work and refused to file a grievance because they were afraid of the backlash.
Don't believe the hype on how it's going to be horrible voting down this contract and going to arbitration. Don't be fooled by the pretend Olive branch that Tiny Dancer has extended regarding the retro pay for the first year. There is more than enough money to pay retroactive pay for everything including special employment and overtime, it's just that he doesn't want to do it because he hates everything about us. That is why he had his people release this story about having to borrow money to pay us - to make us look like the jagoffs.
NOT A SINGLE CONCESSION ON OUR PART UNTIL OUR PENSIONS ARE ONCE AND FOR ALL NEVER BROUGHT UP AS PART OF COLLECTIVE-BARGAINING UNLESS IT'S TO MANDATE THAT THE FUNDING LEVEL IS WHERE IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE.
As it's been said thousand times before, hundreds of millions of dollars magically appear to line the pockets of his cronies and those connected families in this cesspool of a city when it comes time for pet projects or to appease certain groups of people in exchange for votes to keep the Democratic Party in power. Yet the police, fire and teachers have to be the ones to take the hit under the guise of the city being tapped out. Fuck that noise, quit continually falling for this repeated line of outright bullshit lies.
Prediction: as word heats up that the majority of police are going to reject this insult of a contract proposal, The top stories on every news channel will be anti-CPD. The commander with the gun in the suspects mouth, the guy in 010 caught on video blasting dude in the face, etc., etc.
Time for you scared ass Gen-Yers and Millenials to man up and tell the city to go pound sand. Look past that stupid retro pay which is nothing more than a distraction purposely put into play by the city to keep you from noticing the bigger much more important issues at stake.
Yeah and a guy was just shot and killed at Waveland and Laramie. And guess what? Most cars in the district are down on it because several cars are down for the night because of no manpower.

Not going to happen. City is budgeted for around 12,400 sworn officers.
Pension newsletter from a week ago states 12,015 sworn officers paid into the pension as of 15 July 2014. Plus CLEAR shows over 12,000 sworn officers.
The same coppers that vote NO for this contract are the same ones who voted Shields in! This is a fair contract, that's all we can ask for! If anyone thinks an arbitrator will give us better they have not been around long enough.

You do realize that you're comparing a specific neighborhood to an entire (very large) district, correct? I don't think that anyone is proclaiming that every portion of the 016th district is the promised land, and yes, portions of 016 aren't as nice as they once were, but I've been to your neck of the woods, and my preference is to live up north. Maybe you don't realize it because you live down south, but do you realize how far 5200 W. Waveland is from 7400 N. Oconto? Yes, you're absolutely correct that they're both in the 016th district, but those neighborhoods might as well be worlds apart.

You are dreaming. 016 is a huge district and there have been a few homicides on the SE end, well away from Wildwood,Edgebrook,Norwood Park,etc.
Not much gangbanging, last murder was alledgedly from a guy inviting an escort to his home and she brought a few friends
016 huge district and is probably has the lowest number of murders.
If your neighborhood is so good on the southside enjoy it, don't worry about us residents of 016. We will survive.
Forget retro, I'm voting NO to this contract offer.
Hey dumb dumb 9/10/2014 01:56:00 AM
016 is a district not a neighborhood, think about some of the places that 022 covers. Beverly is halfway gone and Mt Greenwood is next. Enjoy paradise jackass.
VOTE NO!
Historically, the worst that can happen is where we started. As for me, I'm taking the chance and voting no. Furlough, duty availability and medical does not sound reasonable at all. Don't want to look back and regret. I'm voting no.
First off, TIF funds have stipulations on how they can be used. I don't like it either but I cannot do anything about it. Secondly, if Donahue applied for unemployment he should be charged with fraud. I'm not a legal expert but I cannot understand how someone receiving a pension would qualify.

9/10/2014 12:53:00 AM
I'll tell you 'why'. The 'park' has nothing to do with Maggie Daley and it is NOT a park we don't need. The park is a rebuild of the Grant Park Garage ROOF, which happens to be a grassy area known as a park.
The garage structure, thrown together hastily for the Millennium Park opening, FAILED. It was leaking and caving in. It HAD to be rebuilt, no matter what it was named afterwards.
The only thing that didn't need to be done was to name it after a corrupt mayor's wife, but the 'park' was going to be rebuilt, with or without the naming ceremony.
Rahm has what 2 BILLION in tif funds hidden? Why is this not illegal? Why are the feds bothering with police nonsense and not going after the king of crime the Daley crime cabal,and the rahm crime empire? Depaul,river-walk,midway-O'Hare billions more spent,safe passage bullshit why not make the kids be crossing guards and stop paying the free loaders parents for sending kids to school especially when the kids turn out to be welfare leeches just like the criminal parents?
As far as contract voting 100% for it,many of the educated young coppers obviously feel like they are being deprived, don't worry boys and girls when you get seniority you will get what senior officers are rightfully entitled to. Many have no idea how arbitration works, quick lesson arbitrator will never arbitrate any agreed on issues by the fop and he city, so if you think you want to reject it and start over it starts over from day 1. if you also think you will "Get more" you need to "get real" not be "real dumb" you will not get better we as a union will lose "big time bro"!
It would be be sweet justice if we said :No: and contract went to arbitrator and now they have to come with DOUBLE that. I can dream, right? I like how the newspapers assume we are just taking this deal before most members haven't even read the language. Or, are we that dumb like Congress to vote on things we haven't even read?
Don't care where money is coming from voting for the the contract not the best but not bad dean not a fan but you and your team did a good job thanks! Many officers I have spoken to are also voting yes so to the detractors we will definitely not do any better!
Dean when are ballots going to be mailed?
Heres an idea, give us a contract on time......No worries about retro pay
In the 17th district there are two major city jobs going on. One is Irving park and California to montrose and California. I can't even imagine how much this one costs. There building a 4 block bike path on the river. That is there taking 15 feet from the river to build this bike path. Everyone in the city is going to come here to ride 4 blocks!! The second is saganaush bike path where there converting a mile of old rail road tracks into a state of the art bike path. Building it up, removing old train tracks, pavement, all new lighting to be run, etc. With both of these projects going on in only 1/25 of the city how can they be broke??? Why would you do projects like this if you don't have money? Lied lies and more lies from this mayor. We must live in richest city in the world to do projects like this!!
Holy smoke, why is Mayor Rahm Emanuel borrowing more money. America is broke.
I swear politicians are worthless as used toilet paper. Anyways as a saying goes, politicians will legislate evil laws.
speaking of which there should be some cutbacks, cutting back the useless crap. I hope those narcissistic fools won't cut what is actually needed.

And to the Mt. Greenwood complainer:
We have don't think about your neighborhood. We honestly couldn't find it on the map. Why the ill will?
Vote no , it will force us to save money and we keep everything until an arbitrator decides .
CPD needs more boots on the streets of Chicago .
More boots means safety , two man cars and more money in the pension fund .
I'm not preaching or forcing my personal view upon anyone. I'm voting no to the contract because that's the right thing for me to do.
We know Mr. Southside didn't write that about 016, because the imbecile that did put at least two coherent sentences together.

First off, TIF funds have stipulations on how they can be used. I don't like it either but I cannot do anything about it. Secondly, if Donahue applied for unemployment he should be charged with fraud. I'm not a legal expert but I cannot understand how someone receiving a pension would qualify.
9/10/2014 10:50:00 AM
Oh yeah, stipulations, like Daley strictly followed stipulations; so does rahm.
Daley reached down and grabbed his junk and said "stipulate this." "Now do it my way."
So much for stipulations. When did Daley ever follow the rules and stipulations?
Voting no....example: Officer A comes on at age 21....he has to put in 34 years of his life in order to get free health care.....Officer B comes on at age 35...puts in 20 years of his life and gets free health care for life......its bullshit.....It should be 55 years of age and OR 29 and day years of service....regardless of age....Officer A put in 14 more years for same retirement package.
This is why everyone hates chicago politicians. They spend without limit on anything they see fit, but when the bill comes due for something right they cry broke. The city lets the contract expire time and time again and doesn't do a damm thing to settle it and then they cry foul when it's time to do what's right. SAD!

If you had to retire due to mandatory retirement at age 63 you can apply for and receive unemployment insurance. Financial laws regarding annuities allows this.

Beverly is halfway gone? Where are you from Cinderella? It has changed but what place hasn't? And it ain't halfway gone. Beverly was actually the safest place I've seen to be in a group of stoned or drunken juveniles out past curfew because if you were from the right side of Beverly/ had the right surname or attended Marist, Rice/ McAuley, DLS or Carmel you weren't getting into any trouble.

Rahm wants burger flipperzzz to get an immediate 40 percent raise...but us a bullshit 11 percent over 5 years. Go fuck yourself. Vote NO. That will send Rahm a message. Cant do any worse in arbitration. PERIOD.

The same coppers that vote NO for this contract are the same ones who voted Shields in! This is a fair contract, that's all we can ask for! If anyone thinks an arbitrator will give us better they have not been around long enough.
9/10/2014 10:08:00 AM
Nonsense. It is not a fair contract when you give up anything and get almost nothing in return. Look past the retro and look at the big picture-Pension.
Not going to happen. City is budgeted for around 12,400 sworn officers.
Pension newsletter from a week ago states 12,015 sworn officers paid into the pension as of 15 July 2014. Plus CLEAR shows over 12,000 sworn officers.
9/10/2014 10:02:00 AM
That doesn't mean the numbers are accurate. A friend needed a letter from the Dept saying he was retired (for a new employer). He contacted personnel and was told he was NOT retired and couldn't have the letter. He was counted as active until he provided a copy of his PAR, showing that he HAD RETIRED 13 MONTHS AGO.
Sorry, but those numbers are just more smoke and mirrors to fool the citizens.

Stop threatening us with you will lose ot pay,if the pension items come in on the contract we will lose a lot more then the bullshit ot pay.

WRONG...free health care is NOT for life. Only till you reach medicare age (65)
speaking about health insurance I pay over $1,000 a month not eligable for medicare due to city not allowing me to put into medicare when they started to take medicare out of paychecks, plus there is 1.5million limit for me those who pay little or no cost under aca there is no limit Thank you city of chicago. keep paying for all everybody except those who have worked to keep the city safe.

Good Luck
samy pension said that
Vote Yes or we will get screwed like last contract, getting less then what was offered.
I think its ridiculous the slanted opinion that Dean presented in his videos on FOP's website. Any common observer, can tell he thinks this contract is the best since sliced bread and its all because of his team and working with the city. Baloney. He keeps repeating his scare tactics about 1 year loss of Retro, and I feel like if we voted NO against this contract, he would feel offended and upset. Well, Damn, I don't care. I've had 2 IOD incidents messing up my leg and arm, not to mention wearing this equipment causing hip and back problems for every officers lifetime, and we get spit, fought with, disrespected, and shot, and sometimes killed. Sorry Dean, Sorry Mayor, Your lousy 2% or 1% don't do it for me. This Contract may not be the worst, but it is far, far, far away from what we deserve. For God sake, we wear a bullet resistant vest and get shit on by these citizens, media 24 hours a day and many white shirt bosses, while we protect the innocent and while just performing law enforcement duties doing damnedest to protect this city and we are supposed to be grateful that we get a lousy 1 or 2 percent raise, with a 1 year retro being flaunted in our faces if we don't hop on your train. Sorry Dean, I realize you think you worked out a Golden Deal, but its not. I will take my chances with an Arbitrator, and if I get screwed then, At least I'll know my own Union and Mayor didn't do it with a smile on their face. Have we forgotten last arbitrator said we could go into this next contract requesting higher wages due to be screwed last time? Its a gamble, but Im willing to take it. For the Bullshit that we deal with everyday, with fights, resisters, Thugs who just want us dead, CR's, lawsuits, plain hatred from the public, and severe body pain we deal with for 20-30 years with equipment and effecting arrests injuries, 1 or 2 percent increase is a GREAT INSULT. I write over $200,000 in parking tickets alone annually, if that doesn't deserve a 4% or 5% per year raise, then F-U Rahm and Dean. I don't care what anyone else does, but for me. NO ON CONTRACT. By the way, this is from a working beat cop, I could care less about the empty holsters in CAPS offices and other useless people who play computer games, grab ass, glorified paper pushers that any civilian could do for half of the salary. You guys probably will vote yes, because you have no idea of the BS that occurs working a beat car day in and day out from job to job to job, year after year. Does it make me bitter, perhaps, but Yes, Us workers who make up the majority of the job DESERVE A HELL LOT MORE than a pathetic 1% when this CITY is SUCKING in their photo enforcement red lights, parking tickets, highest gas prices in Nation, taxes, etc etc etc. The CITY has the $$$$, don't fall for the "We Are Broke!" ITS NOT TRUE. Demand more. Don't let Dean Or the CITY make us believe that we are not worth it, we are. We are what makes this city somewhat presentable. Take us outta the picture, this city would be a f---cking Horror movie, more than it is already.
Borrow my ass. That lil squandering prick made how many millions in interest off of our money? Not to mention that we are budgeted for 13500 police officers. What are we about 8800??? Where is all that extra money?
9/10/2014 10:02:00 AM are you that stupid-- the department counts officers detailed twice. Where have have you been.
If you Southsiders don't stop making fun of the Northside we will send our butlers down to rough you up.
Eat my shit Rahm!
Karen Lewis is the clear choice.
I would take back the firefighters money and use it to fund cops since the firefighters union is backing Quinn. If the firefighters hate the taxpayers than f them!
I know three coppers that used to be southsiders. They each married women that are northsiders and as a result now live north. Each one of them say they feel like they died and are in heaven. That's how much better the northside is. One of them told me that if he had known how much better the northside is, he would have moved there years ago.
So much for all the news stories that Rahm was trying to make up with the police unions before the election. . . .
I did not see the tone of the story as blaming anyone. Just stating how the city plans to pay for the contract.
It actually gave a pretty decent dig at Daley for how he handled a similar situation in the past.
to the jackass talking about 016 unit i work and live in 016 , and i did 14yrs in the ghetto . 016 is big and i will take edison park, norwood park and oriole park over mt billywood anyday. your mt green will be gone in 10yrs , plus we dont have the 2015 southside st paddy days parade here either, so get drunk urinate on your lawn and enjoy your irish ghetto
Hey Genius, the parade isn't in Mt. Greenwood
1:56am
So 016 is unlivable now because the very south end now sucks.
Mount Greenwood makes up about 10% of 022
022 is smaller and less populated than 016, yet beats them in every crime category
does that mean Mt Greenwood is a bad place to live...no
at least 2/3 to 3/4 of 016 is doing just fine
so take a deep breath, count to 12 on your hands and relax Francis

Meanwhile, the retirees supplemental health insurance is going up 50% at the 1st of the year. From $120 a month to $192. (no spouse in this amount) Enjoy the free insurance until 65 as long as you can. Plus once you turn 65 you have to pay additional for the dental/vision.

**********************************
Because I am traveling I have not seen the increase letter, but let me say 2 things about it.
First, I did receive an email from the attorneys representing us in this, saying that they well be seeking an injunction to prevent the increase. They will probably prevail.
Second, I currently pay 181 a month, with spouse, and I guess that would go up to somewhere around 300 a month with the increase. Well perhaps you should investigate private Medicare supplements. They are considerably higher, without a decent prescription plan. Our supplement is still a bargain.

...or robbed at gun point. I lived in Beverly and have seen its decline.
Hey post What school did you go to for math and reading have to school. The retro is 6 percent. 2 for 1/2 of 2012, 2 for 1/2 2013, and 2 for second of 2013. equal 6 and a 1 percent raise in 2014, and a raise in 2015. You will be the first to complain when we get fucked in arbitrtation. And if you don't like dean you run for office...
Union screwed up in retro! Calculated $9000.00 in retro and it's wrong! More in the 4000.00 range. Call the union now. They sent out bogus estimates! Not lying.
It seems all the vote "no" stuff is being wrote up by the same person. Stop Mike. Just stop...
It's always us that's the problem... us and our rich pensions.
The graft, fixed contracts, out and out political thievery.... no none of that are the problem.
the bad news of a loan to cover the contract serves to insure against anybody even thinking of voting down that contract...
rahm: I'll take the heat for this raise and retro but you guys dare reject it and it's on you.
9/10/2014 12:58:00 AM
That's a ridiculous thought. Rahm isn't taking any heat he always shifts the heat onto someone else.
.. Ok lets hear all the defensive comments about mt greenwood though, all I know is that I will be sleeping safely and soundly like I have been for the past 45 years in my clean non violent gangbanger free neighborhood.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Jealousy is a bitch.
The neighborhood described above simply doesn't exist ANYWHERE in this city. While you're sleeping and drift into Utopia it exists but not when you wake up.
Don't forget the unbelievable park in the sky that's being built in the 14th district. It's the railroad track running along side Bloomingdale St. from about Ashland Ave. west to Central Park St. You should see all the work being done. What is that costing the tax payers? Tiny-dancer is just doing it for the votes, it wasn't priority. Wasted monies before Pensions. Anybody have any idea of this projects cost?
He has the money to pay us,FOP is now having town hall meetings 1 on the north-side is this Tuesday on fop website to discuss this contract! Many coppers I have spoken to are voting yes, the radicals who stir up the pot are saying vote no! If it goes to arbitration expect another 2-3 years as the contract will start from scratch, nothing in the contract is arbitrarily wrong. If the city and the union agree, arbitrator will not move any individual items, the entire contract will be scrapped!
Another thing about young coppers worried about 55 and out, every contract changes,no maybe the 55 and out will not be here in 20 years, no one knows, but the city as a matter of fact no employer has to give retirees any insurance, be careful what you wish for you just might get it!
If your 55 and mulling over retirement with free medical you have to be completely insane to gamble the future,take it like over 50 so far have for Oct 2014. Time to go, thanks Dean for all you have done to help with this contract, but you will see the good deeds will not go unpunished as they say!
Thanks also to the "spirits of the air" SCC for always helping the working coppers to be informed, to have a smile,and sometimes shed a tear may God bless the crew at SCC your the best thanks is all we can say!!

Sorry, but those numbers are just more smoke and mirrors to fool the citizens.
Was his name on CLEAR after he retired. Don't think so and has he been paying into the pension after he retired. Thats how they calculate the number of active po's. Some other guy said they count detailed po's twice. If that was the case we would show 15,000.
At best maybe personnel made a mistake, but the bottom line there are a little over 12,000 sworn members.

Detailed officers are not on CLEAR twice They are on CLEAR once showing both where they are assigned and where they are detailed, and detailed officers dont pay into the pension twice. Pension board counts the number of active sworn members paying into the pension.
As far as being stupid I suggest you walk into the bathroom and peer into the mirror if you want to view stupid.

Wake up its, 2014 and the CPD is not budgeted for 13,500 A year or so ago Rahm took like 1200 to 1300 out of the budget
Once again, the pension newsletter states as of July 15,2014 there are 12,015 sworn officers paying into the pension. CLEAR also shows over 12,000. I know everyone is lying

"Or that Maggie Daley Park..."
$55 million for another park we don't need. WHY?
Here an idea, instead of one park we don't need split up that money three or four ways and get matching grants from three or four major hospitals. Then at each hospital build a spa like beast cancer detection clinic and name them after Maggie Daley. Each one can have a mini-park because there as places where serious contemplation and family discussions can take place.
That's what to do with that money.
9/10/2014 12:53:00 AM
I'll tell you 'why'. The 'park' has nothing to do with Maggie Daley and it is NOT a park we don't need. The park is a rebuild of the Grant Park Garage ROOF, which happens to be a grassy area known as a park.
The garage structure, thrown together hastily for the Millennium Park opening, FAILED. It was leaking and caving in. It HAD to be rebuilt, no matter what it was named afterwards.
The only thing that didn't need to be done was to name it after a corrupt mayor's wife, but the 'park' was going to be rebuilt, with or without the naming ceremony.
9/10/2014 10:55:00 AM
That may be true but the initial post is on the right track. Why spend 55 million more on a park which ran how many hundreds of millions over budget? They've already spent enough on this "park" other things and contracts need money.
OT New healthcare premiums for 2015 came out for retirees .
Husband and wife on medicare pay $438.00 a months and thats if po has 20 or more years on.
Last year is was either 249 or 299, either way a huge increase
Thats for the supplemental so you have to add $110 each for medicare
Over $600 a month and going up next year
"Have we forgotten last arbitrator said we could go into this next contract requesting higher wages due to be screwed last time"
I totally remember that.
Also, Correct Me if I'm wrong my understanding is that the contract is good for three years. Last contract they made five years and this contract they are also making it five years. Next time the city should settle the contract quicker. Otherwise, give us something "extra" for extending it an additional 2 years.
Duty availability increase $100 last six months of the contract? REALLY? Make it sooner. Contract should have been settle a long time ago.
NEW POs losing their duty availability. Why would you say yes to this. Stop comparing to the fire department. We are on duty 24/7. Shit happens at a mall or anywhere else, what's a fire fighter going to pull out? A fire extinguisher?
Furlough by watch, we should put this to a separate vote some how where FOP gets feedback from their members. This alone can be a deal breaker for most.

My City of Chicago retiree health plan for 2015 will be 64% higher. That's right, Citizen's of Chicago!
You know, the health care plan that is so often spouted about in the media by cocksucker Rahm who touts that we "receive it for free". The same healthcare insurance from the City that has never been free to me.
And our great prescription plan, The one that forces us to pay ridiculously higher rate amounts for maintenance drugs. Stuff that costs a couple of bucks for the 1st two fills at the pharmacy and you are then forced to pay $65.00 for a 3 month mail order supply.
But if it's a non-formulary maintenace drug, they drop the mail order by force rule and let you contiue to buy it over the counter. I pay $65.00 for a 30 day supply instead of $65.00 for a three month mail order supply. You get srewed by CVS/CAREMARK in either case. My Walgreens is 3 miles away and I can't fill stuff there without being penalized and am forced to go to the CVS 10 miles away. FUCK YOU, RAHM!!!
Not one mention in deangelow videos about manpower two man cars , or ending the merit promotions .
Majority of co and exempt ranks were merit sergeant and or lieutenant , total bull crisp , it's taking away promotions from officers that passed the exams .
It sounds worse than the shield union .
End the duty availability for the second watch , put it to a vote , double ds like someone is taking orders from rahmmie .
I write over $200,000 in parking tickets alone annually
Sorry Brother, but anyone who is still writing that many tickets and boning the citizens who are already being jacked around enough by this mayor has a screw loose. It's one thing to handle your jobs and help clean up the streets but contributing to Rahms budget by hammering hard working citizens with tickets?, how do you sleep with yourself. You just finished explaining why you shouldn't be doing that, because the city is not compensating you based on how much income you generate. Get with the program, what your doing is being a parking enforcement officer, not a police officer.

Vote no and lose the first 4% of the contract which may or may not be put on at the end of the contract.
Get put into the City's wellness program.
And the medical will change to the LLC.
And pay 2% retiree health care sooner.
Those are all lost and the arbitrator will only rule on 4 or five issues. The whole contract is NOT reopened.
After the Sgt.'s voted down their contract the arbitrator ruled against them. If you think another arbitrator will rule for us then you still believe in the tooth fairy!
He is getting the money from the retirees' by raising their health care.
My Walgreens is 3 miles away and I can't fill stuff there without being penalized and am forced to go to the CVS 10 miles away. FUCK YOU, RAHM!!!
