THE CITY CAN DO BETTER
Last week, the City approached us, and the other unions whose contracts are expiring on June 30 of this year, to discuss an extension offer. Today, in coalition with those other unions, we met with the City to hear what they had to say. After the meeting, they sent us a one-sentence proposal that we extend our existing contract as-is for the next two years, with no cost of living adjustment. The City can do better.
