NEW BUSINESS <br /> <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />DATE: April 8, 2013 <br /> <br />TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers <br /> <br />FROM: Patrick Klaers, City Administrator <br />Sue Iverson, Director of Finance and Administrative Services <br /> <br />SUBJECT: 2013-2015 Union Contract <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Background/Discussion <br /> <br />The Personnel Committee met on March 11, 2013, and provided feedback on the contract <br />proposal submitted by the Union. <br /> <br />Staff and our representative, Bill Joynes (Midwest Government Advisors), met with the Union <br />Business Agenda, Kent Korman, and the Union employee representative on March 15, 2013. At <br />this meeting we reached a tentative agreement pending approval of the City Council and the <br />Union employees. <br /> <br />The City Council, by consensus, accepted the proposal on March 18, 2013. However, the Union <br />employees rejected the proposal during their meeting on March 19, 2013. <br /> <br />A closed meeting was held prior to the regular City Council meeting on March 25, 2013, to <br />discuss the Union Contract. Based on that discussion, the item was withdrawn from the regular <br />City Council agenda. <br /> <br />Since the March 25, 2013, City Council meeting, it is believed that an agreement has been met. <br /> <br />A closed meeting will again be held prior to the regular City Council meeting on April 8, 2013. <br />Depending on how the discussion goes with the City Council during the closed meeting that is <br />scheduled for just prior to this regular City Council meeting, staff will either have contract terms <br />to present or this item will be withdrawn from the agenda. <br /> <br /> <br />11 <br />Page of <br /> <br />
