Chairman Zukowski asked the City Nurse if Alex Battle had gone for a pension physical.
Mrs. Degner said that she had talked with Mr. Battle and told him he could go for a
pension physical at his own expense, but she did not know whether he had done this.
Chairman Zukowski advised Committee that Officer Bernard Donahue passed away. He has
been contacted by Officer Donahue's family in regard to pension.
Officer Donahue did not work a full ten years and the time since he left work has been
on disability leave. Due to these circumstances, Chairman Zukowski asked the following
questions:
1. Is he entitled to pension and if so, what form of pension is he entitled to?
2. What is the legal opinion on his job-connected disability ruled on in that court
case?
Chairman indicated that the Committee had approved Officer Donahue for a disability
pension baaed on a letter from Officer Donahue and three doctors' letters. This approval
was subject to Officer Donahue signing a resignation form and the resignation form was
not signed before his death.
Mr. Laursen stated that he felt the reason Officer Donahue had not signed a resignation
was due partly to his mental condition and to the fact that maybe he would be better off
stay1Ug on Workers' Compensation payments.
Chairman stated that since there has been no new evidence in this case, he felt the
Committee would have to stand by their original recommendation based on the doctors'
statements. The date of his pension will be the date of his death. His widow has been
asked to bring in proof of marriage and a request for pension.
Alan Zimmet advised Committee that he had talked with Workers' Comp and they felt the
widow would apply for death benefits under Workers' Comp claiming that Officer Donahue's
death was due to work related causes. Mike Laursen asked that Alan Zimmet advise Chairman
Zukowski if any death benefits are being paid to the widow by Workers' Compensation.
r
Mr. Laursen summarized as follows:
Since the Committee. had previously approved or recommended job connected disability pension
and find no new medical or other evidence to indicate that this should be changed, then
that recommendation will stand. In that the Committee has not received a resignation
and Officer Donahue has since passed away, the Committee will then utilize the date of his
death as the effective date that the pension request will be submitted to the City
Commission.
