Item 4 on the Agenda was the City Manager's Choice. Richard Wanush, Assistant
City Manager referred the Board to the City's request for partial redetermination
of the Unit Clarification of the Englewood Police Benefit Association.
Chairman Weber stated that it was the Board's position that this request be
denied. Without receiving further evidence or testiIIDny, the Board will provide
ITDre particulars of their determination as requested by a tentative date of

within 30 days or 90 days. If there was to be an appeal within 30 days the Board

the Board took a little rrore time and put a little rrore effort into their preparation
of the particulars.
