Summary
Luzerne County Council adopted a resolution approving a memorandum of understanding tied to a collective bargaining agreement with the Laborers' International Union (LIUNA) Local 1310; council corrected a typographical union-number error before final vote.
Luzerne County Council voted June 24 to approve a memorandum of understanding (MOU) associated with a collective bargaining agreement between Luzerne County and LIUNA Public Service Employees Union Local 1310.
During the voting session a council member moved to amend the resolution to correct a typographical error in the union local number from "1300" to "1310." The amendment was seconded, put to roll call and approved unanimously. The amended resolution then received a roll call vote and passed unanimously.
Before the vote a member of the public, identified in the transcript as Walter Griffith, said he had been unable to obtain a copy of the full contract and asked that the county provide the document. Attorney Skeen responded that sections of the contract related to financial components had not changed from what council previously voted on and that a redline version would be available within approximately two weeks.
Council did not debate changes to monetary terms at the meeting; the action recorded in the transcript concerns adoption of the MOU and a clerical correction to the union local number.
The transcript does not record the mover and seconder names for the final resolution beyond "so moved" and "second." The roll call recorded all members voting "yes" on the amended resolution.
