CHIEF, FOLLOWING ARE THE MESSAGES RELEVANT TO STONE. I WILL NOT ATTACH A MESSAGE TO EACH MESSAGE. CAPT. BYERLY Part 3 . FROM: Marilyn STONE / KENT70/PD TO: Rod FREDERIKSEN / KENT70/PD CC: George BURKE / KENT70/PD • Dennis BYERLY / KENT70/PD Teri NOBLE / KENT70/PD Part 4. CHIEF, I AM REQUESTING THE OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE LEAVE WITHOUT PAY EFFECTIVE SUNDAY JULY 16TH THROUGH WEDNESDAY AUGUST 16TH, 1989 . I CHECKED THREE DIFFERENT CITY OF KENT POLICY MANUALS ON THE 2ND AND 3RD FLOORS OF THE POLICE DEPARTMENT SIDE AND FOUND ALL THREE TO BE MISSING PAGE 24 OF SECTION III, WHICH ADDRESSES THE PROCEDURE OF MY REQUEST. IN CHECKING THE MOST RECENT SCHEDULE I HAVE, THE IMPACT THIS LEAVE WOULD HAVE, IF GRANTED, WOULD BE SIX SHIFTS OF SWING REQURING OVERTIME BECAUSE OF MINIMUM STAFFING. THOSE DATES ARE SUNDAY JULY 23RD, MONDAY JULY 24TH, SUNDAY JULY 30TH, MONDAY JULY 31ST,AND SUNDAY AUGUST 6TH. THIS IS DUE TO OFFICER PISIA BEING ON HOLIDAY/ANNUAL LEAVE FROM SATURDAY JULY 22ND THROUGH SUNDAY AUGUST 6TH. THE OTHER DAY AFFECTED IS FRIDAY AUGUST 11TH, WHICH IS THE BEGINNING OF SGT. NOBLE'S LEAVE. THE SUMMER QUARTER AT THE UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON ENDS ON FRIDAY AUGUST 18TH. THE PURPOSE OF MY REQUEST IS TO CONCENTRATE ON MY STUDIES FOR THIS QUARTER. THE DATES CHOSEN ARE INCONJUCTION WITH OUR BEGINING AND ENDING OF PAYROLL PERIODS, THUS MAKING THE BOOKKEEPING INVOLVED SIMPLIFIED. KEEPING THIS LEAVE INCONJUCTION WITH MY PRESENT SCHEDULE, WHICH IS G SHIFT WITH WEDNESDAY/THURSDAY OFF, WEDNESDAY AUGUST 16TH BEGINS NEW PAY PERIOD AND MY SCHEDULE WOULD RESUME EFFECTIVE THAT DATE. I AM PRESENTLY ON ANNUAL LEAVE UNTIL FRIDAY JUNE 30TH. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CALL ME AT MY RESIDENCE, 827-0518, IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS OR DISCUSSION. MORE THAN LIKELY MY RECORDER WILL ANSWER. I SINCERELY HOPE MY REQUEST CAN BE GRANTED IN VIEW OF THE RELATIVELY SHORT DURATION OF THE LEAVE AND THE OVERALL EFFECT ON THE STAFFING OF SWING SHIFT IF RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED, MARILYN STONE • FREDERIKSEN,ROD / KENT70/PD - HPDesk print. ------------------------------------------- sage.

FROM: Marilyn STONE / KENT70/PD TO: George BURKE / KENT70/PD Dennis BYERLY / KENT70/PD Teri NOBLE / KENT70/PD Part 4 . Part 5. CPT. BYERLY, as IS RESPONSE TO OUR TELEPHONE CONVERSATION LAST FRIDAY REGARDING MY REQUEST FOR LWOP FOR JULY 16TH THROUGH AUGUST 16TH AND THE STATUS OF THIS REQUEST. PRIOR TO THE CHANGES MADE IN STAFFING RESULTING FROM WILLIAMS' RESIGNATION, THIS WAS THE STAFFING PER SHIFT. DAY SHIFT - SGT. KNAPP C/O DURHAM C/O WILLIAMS C/O ROGERS C/O SELVIDGE C/O NEW HIRE SWING SHIFT - SGT. NOBLE C/O BEDINGER C/O STONE C/O MILES C/O PISIA C/O WHITE GRAVE SHIFT - SGT. LUTZ C/O AGUILAR C/O SWANSON C/O PALMER • C/O BOEHME C/O KINSELLA THE CHANGES RESULTING FROM WILLIAMS' , WHO WAS ASSIGNED TO DAY SHIFT, RESIGNATION ARE: PISIA FROM SWING SHIFT TO DAY SHIFT AGUILAR FROM GRAVE SHIFT TO DAY SHIFT. SGUESSING THE REASON TWO PEOPLE WERE MOVED TO DAY SHIFT EVEN THOUGH ONLY ONE WAS LOST IS BECAUSE OF THE ANNUAL LEAVE SPREAD OF THE TWO IN THAT WHILE ONE IS GONE THE OTHER IS HERE AND VISA-VERSA, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF A LITTLE OVERLAP WHERE BOTH ARE GONE. AGUILAR'S LEAVE IS FRIDAY JULY 7TH THROUGH MONDAY JULY 24TH AND PISIA'S BEGINS FRIDAY JULY 21ST. SWING SHIFT LOOSES PISIA AND ASSUMING PETERS IS ABLE TO WORK SOLO (I MAKE THIS ASSUMATION BASED UPON RELIEVING HER IN THE CONTROL ROOM FROM GRAVE SHIFT) , SWING GETS PETERS AND JACKSON, WHO IS BRAND NEW. NOT COUNTING JACKSON BECAUSE HE IS A TRAINEE, THERE IS NOT A NEED AT ALL FOR ANY OVERTIME COVERAGE, IF MY LWOP IS GRANTED, BECAUSE THERE IS NO OTHER LEAVE BEING TAKEN ON THIS SHIFT DURING THIS TIME. HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM IS AND I SEE YOUR POINT THERE ARE NO OTHER SENIOR OR EXPERIENCED OFFICERS ASIDE FROM THE OBVIOUS SGT ON THIS SHIFT. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT SGT NOBLE'S PLANS ARE FOR HER ACTING. IF SHE HAS CHOSEN, C/O BEDIGNER FOR THIS, WHICH WOULD REQUIRE A DAY OFF CHANGE FOR HIM BECAUSE PRESENTLY THEIR DAYS OFF ARE IDENTICAL, THEN I DO NOT SEE ANY REASON FOR MY REQUEST TO BE GRANTED. IN LOOKING AT ALL THREE SHIFTS AND THE SCHEDULE AS A WHOLE, I DO SEE A AN OVERLOAD OF NEWBIES ON SWING SHIFT. OUT OF 5 LINE POSITIONS, EXCLUDING TRANSPORT, DAY SHIFT HAS 4 SENIOR OFFICERS (ROGERS, PISIA, SELVIDGE, AND AGUILAR) , GRAVE SHIFT HAS 2 AND 1/2 (SWANSON, PALMER AND BOEHME AS THE 1/2) , AND SWING SHIFT HAS 1 (ME) . SAPS A POSSIBLE SOLUTION AND IS OFFERRED AS A SUGGESTION IS TO MOVE SWANSON M GRAVE SHIFT TO SWING SHIFT, WHICH COULD EASILY BE DONE FOLLOWING THE C CLUSION OF HER LEAVE ON MONDAY JULY 17TH, AND TO MOVE A NEWBIE, IE PETERS, FROM SWING SHIFT TO GRAVE. REGARDLESS OF MY REQUEST, THIS CHANGE MAY BE ENTERTAINED ANYHOW TO BETTER BALANCE THE RATIO OF SENIOR:NEWBIES ON THESE SHIFTS. ANOTHER POSSIBILTY IS YOUR IDEA, WHICH IS BEGINING MY LEAVE A WEEK LATER. AS WELL AS COINCIDING WITH MY EXISTING SCHEDULE (SWING WITH WED/THURS OFF) , THE REMAINDER OF SUMMER QUARTER, THE DATE I SUBMITTED FOR ALSO DIRECTLY COINCIDE WITH PAYROLL PERIODS. WHAT WOULD BE THE POSSIBLE PROBLEMS IN CHANGING THIS DATE TO A WEEK LATER? AND SINCE WE ARE SOME WHAT ON THIS TOPIC, WHAT WOULD BE THE STATUS OF MY MONTHLY ACCURAL OF ANNUAL AND SICK LEAVE AND THE STATUS OF MY MEDICAL BENEFITS DURING THIS TIME FRAME? IN SPEAKING WITH LT. BURKE THIS AFTERNOON, HE CAME UP WITH A GOOD POSSIBLE IDEA OF CHANGING MY HOURS TO PART-TIME FOR THIS TIME FRAME AND I WOULD WORK ON SWING SHIFT ON SET DAYS/TIMES MOST NEEDED. AS I RELAYING TO LT. BURKE, THIS QUARTER IS A REAL BEAR (A DIFFERENT B-WORD, BUT CLOSE ENOUGH) . I WOULD NOT BE A BIT SURPRIZED IF I DON'T PASS MY STATS CLASS. IT IS A TOUGHIE AND BEING SUMMER QUARTER, THE MATERIAL IN BOTH MY CLASSES IS THROWN IN HEAPS. AS I STATED IN MY ORIGINAL E-GRAM, THE OBJECTIVE HERE IS TO CONCETRATE ON MY STUDIES SO I WILL PASS AND HOPEFULLY WITH A DECENT G.P.A FOR THE QUARTER. CO-RELATING TO THIS OBJECTIVE IS THE LOWERING OF MY STRESS LEVEL. PREFERENCE IS THE FULL 4 WEEKS AT LWOP. THE ALTERNATIVES ARE FEASIBLE PARTICUARLY LT. BURKE'S IDEA DEPENDING UPON WHAT THAT PART-TIME SCHEDULE WOULD BE. CAPTAIN, YOU SAID YOU WERE GOING TO THROW THIS BACK TO ME, SO HERE IT IS. THANK YOU FOR NOT FLAT DENYING MY REQUEST AND SHUTTING THE DOOR. ALSO THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME USE MY HEAD AND FIGURE A SOLUTION. YOU WORKING WITH ME ON THIS REQUEST IS MUCH APPRECIATED. �ILYN STONE • • FREDERIKSEN,ROD / KENT70/PD - HPDesk print. ------------------------------------------- sage.
