Memorandum
To: Board of Directors
From: Peter Holzmeister
Date: March 27, 2003
Subject: New MOU with IBEW Local 1245
1. Why this matter is before the board:
This matter involves adopting of amendments to the Memorandum of Understanding
between the District and its employee union, the International Brotherhood of Electrical
Workers, Local 1245 (IBEW). The board has traditionally approved the MOU with the
union.
2. History:
Our employees have been represented by IBEW for many years. We have enjoyed
good relations with IBEW and have been able to negotiate a series of three-year MOUs.
The most recent three-year MOU expired in December 31, 2002. Steve Hollabaugh and
I have been the management committee meeting with the union committee for the past
several months.
3. New information:
We have reached tentative agreement with the union on the terms and conditions of a
new MOU. This agreement is not final until the board and the union membership ratifies
it. I would like to go into closed session to discuss this entire matter before the board
considers it in open session, as we have done in the past.
4. Recommendation:
I recommend that the board approve the new MOU as negotiated by Steve Hollabaugh
and me in our meetings with the union committee.
