Background

The city’s full-time workforce of 150 employees is 47% union and 53% non-union, and has three bargaining groups (Public Works, Patrol and Sergeants). Our part-time, temporary and seasonal workforce fluctuates from 150 to 400 employees. Lastly, our part-time Firefighters are the majority of our fire protection service, and are comprised of 32 employees.

 

The city has settled all three labor agreements in 2017, and all agreements have a Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) increase in 2018 of 3%.

 

All labor agreements were approved by Council, and we are asking that the the rest of the city's employees match our labor agreements.

 

The following groups would be the subject to this COLA increase: (1) Full-Time, Non-Union Employees, (2) Part-Time, Temporary and Seasonal Employees, and (2) Part-Time Firefighter Employees. 

Budget Impact:
There is a budgetary impact in 2018, however it is already in the proposed 2018 budget.
