ASSEMBLY AGENDA/MANAGER'S REPORT
THE CITY AND BOROUGH OF JUNEAU, ALASKA

IAFF Contract Ratification, including DRAFT Resolution 2830

MANAGER'S REPORT:

This resolution would provide Assembly ratification of the terms of the tentative agreement negotiated between the City and Borough of Juneau and the International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF) for an economic reopener provided for in the current collective bargaining agreement.

The terms of the economic reopener include a 2% general wage increase, retention incentive bonuses, and an adjustment to the wage rate for captains. The total cost of these provisions over the life of the contract is projected to be approximately $204,000.

Because this is an economic reopener, there are no adjustments to general operating terms. 

Ballots for the IAFF membership ratification of the terms of the tentative agreement were counted on October 15, 2018.  The agreed upon terms are consistent with Assembly direction.

RECOMMENDATION:

The City Manager recommends this resolution be adopted.
