Sarpy County commissioners voted June 2 to approve a three‑year collective bargaining agreement with Nebraska public employees Local 251 (AFSCME Local 251).
County staff said the contract includes a 2% pay increase in each year of the agreement, converts uniform and tool reimbursements into fixed allowances (with the tools allowance increased), and raises specialty pay from 3% to 4%. County staff recommended approval and were available to answer questions at the meeting.

Commissioner Clude moved approval and Commissioner Burmeister seconded; the board approved the contract by voice vote.
