CITY OF SAINT PAUL
OFFICE OF THE CITY ATTORNEY
April 25, 1973 KENNETH J. FITZPATRICK
Z'he Honorable Lawrence Cohen
Mayor of the City of Saint Paul
and
Members of the City Council
Gentlemen:
Attached please find an ordinance adding a new section
to Chapter 487.08 of the Legislative Code. This Chapter
in the main deals with uniform allc�wance for St. Paul
Police Officers.
The attached ordinance was drafted at the request of
Chief Richard Rowan and was designed to provide for
reimburseuient to police officers for items of wearing
apparel that are damaged in the course and scope of their
employment. T'he �nost frequent claims that the City Attorney' s
office rec�ives in this area from the police officers are
for broken glasses and wristwatches. It has been our ex-
perience that these ite�s are most often damaged by the
officers during the course of apprehending and restraining
criininal suspects and there is no authorization in the law
at the present time for restitution to them. As the
officers are required to wear wri�twatches while on duty
and many wear eye gla�ses, it was the desire vf Chief Rowan
that the officers be compengated for their loss as to these
and related items.
