Fire Fighters Sick Leave Contract Awarded
City Manager Tim Commisso is going to tell Council tonight what the financial impacts will be from a recent Fire Fighters arbitration award. The City is on the hook for 170 thousand dollars and an additional 3-thousand dollars per retired firefighter. Councillor Rebecca Johnson says she takes issue with an arbitrator making decisions that the City will have to pay for. The sick leave payouts go back to 2008 and involve 62 Fire Fighters.
