Supervisors approve three‑year Secondary Roads union contract, staff say it avoids arbitration
Summary
Supervisors approved a negotiated union contract for Secondary Roads with a multiyear wage adjustment; county staff described the agreement as preferable to arbitration and updated the salary schedule as part of the contract exhibit.
County staff presented a negotiated union contract for Secondary Roads that includes multiyear wage adjustments. A county staff member who worked on the agreement told supervisors the contract includes roughly a 2.6% increase for each of the next three years and said the deal avoids the county incurring arbitration costs.
The staff member also said the salary schedule in the contract exhibit was updated and a new article was added to address safety‑glasses policy and an additional clause to link future salary increases to other negotiated outcomes. Supervisors moved to approve the union contract; the motion passed at the meeting.
County staff said the chair normally signs the final contract along with union representatives and that implementation will proceed under the terms negotiated and documented in the contract exhibits.
