Mabton council approves successor police union agreement
Summary
The council approved a negotiated successor collective bargaining agreement with the police union (Teamsters Local 760 or similar as recorded), authorizing terms between the city and officers' representative.
The Mabton City Council approved Resolution 2026-03, accepting the negotiated successor collective bargaining agreement between the city and the police union. Council members moved and seconded the resolution and adopted it by voice vote.
Police leadership had been present in staff reports and later referenced an ongoing effort to secure equipment and staffing; the new agreement was presented as a formal labor settlement to continue operations of the department. No contract dollar amounts or detailed terms were read into the record during the council action segment of the transcript.
Council members expressed support for the department's needs in subsequent staff reports, and the chief said grant applications had been submitted to secure capital improvements and equipment. The resolution directs city staff to finalize any administrative steps needed to implement the agreement.
