The most lively discussion occurred when the council took up the question of authorizing the Director of - Public Safety to establish the position of -Corporal. in the niblic. Safety Department at a starting salary of $18,500. The chief defender* of this motion was Councilwoman Nolan who stated, "My position is to create a Corporal in., the Public Service Department with a sahat-y of $18,500. " In response to her, Councilmen Ntoore and Valente pointed out to Nolan that the council has received a request from the Public Safety Department asking to create a position for one man. The "one man" was identified at the last Council meeting as Clay Walker, the - current Crime Prevention Officer. Moore's objection at the last Council meeting was that the union might object, since Walker does not have the seniority that some of the other officers do. It was stated at this evening's meeting that the union has since declared it 'has no objection's. Valente warned the council that if at some later date the council should' decide to abolish the Cot,Tpral position, they might then 'be prevented. from doing this because it v�as. part of the union contract.
