Council to review proposed IAFF contract changes including maternity and personal-day adjustments
Summary
Finance and administration circulated a draft IAFF (firefighters) bargaining agreement that includes maternity coverage, alignment of holidays, and an adjustment to personal-day pay to match 24‑hour firefighter shifts; committee agreed to place the draft on the special meeting agenda for further review.
Staff presented a draft bargaining agreement with the International Association of Firefighters (IAFF). Key proposed changes include adding a maternity plan for firefighters, aligning IAFF holidays with the city’s holiday schedule, and adjusting personal days to match 24‑hour firefighter shifts so that a personal day covers an entire 24‑hour shift rather than an 8‑hour increment.
The draft also reflects a scheduled 4% pay-scale increase consistent with recent bargaining patterns. City staff and the IAFF representative (named in the packet as Kyle Scuttles) worked on the draft; staff highlighted changes in the document with yellow highlighting to simplify review. Committee members agreed to place the draft on the special council agenda and review it in more depth before final action.
