County approves 2025 non‑licensed law enforcement contract with 5% wage increase
Summary
Nicollet County approved a one‑year collective bargaining agreement for non‑licensed law enforcement employees that includes a 5% wage increase for 2025; commissioners said they expect future negotiations to consider a longer term pending a county wage study.
Nicollet County commissioners voted unanimously Nov. 26 to approve a 2025 collective bargaining agreement for the non‑licensed law enforcement bargaining unit. Negotiators described the contract as a one‑year agreement with a 5% wage increase, agreed to align with a planned county wage study slated for completion in 2025.
A member of the negotiating committee thanked county staff and the county labor attorney for assistance during negotiations and said unions agreed to the one‑year structure to allow incorporation of wage‑study results into future bargaining. Commissioners expressed appreciation for staff work and indicated future bargaining cycles may consider two‑year deals after the wage study is completed.
Next steps: County administration will process the contract changes and implement wage adjustments as negotiated.
