Peoria County approves deputies' labor contract and allocates $80,000 for FY2025 wage increases
Summary
The Peoria County Board approved a collective bargaining agreement with the Police Benevolent Labor Committee deputies unit and appropriated $80,000 for Fiscal Year 2025 wage increases; the action passed by recorded vote.
The Peoria County Board approved a collective bargaining agreement between the county and the Police Benevolent Labor Committee (deputies unit) and appropriated $80,000 for FY2025 wage increases related to that agreement. The resolution was presented by the county operations committee and passed by the board with 15 ayes.
During general discussion, board members thanked county operations staff and the sheriff's office for their work negotiating the agreement. A county official reminded board members that, because three members were absent earlier in the meeting, the budget amendment associated with the contract would have required a unanimous vote if that absence had persisted; the full board ultimately voted 15-0.
The resolution directs the appropriation of $80,000 from county funds for the current fiscal year to cover the agreed-upon wage increases for the deputies unit; the transcript does not specify the funding source line item or whether the appropriation will be covered by contingency, reserves, or reallocation.
The resolution was approved during the board's ordinances/resolutions section and recorded in the meeting minutes.
