S -t9 w (c, <br />Secs toy-, io <br />September 8, 2009. <br />To: City Council <br />From: Lino Lakes Employees Who Are Members of AFSCME <br />Subject: Working Together To Serve Lino Lakes Residents <br />• We appreciate the statements by directors and city council members <br />recognizing the importance of trying to avoid eliminating services to the <br />residents of the Lino Lakes. <br />• We feel favorable about negotiating agreements regarding things such as: <br />A commitment to some minimum voluntary unpaid time off for all employees. <br />Additional voluntary unpaid time off, which is in the contract already. <br />Potential for increasing the maximum of voluntary unpaid time per year. <br />• We worry about spending money on new, unanticipated things, when the City is <br />decreasing services because of budget issues. If the City can't meet current <br />needs for serving the public due to budget constraints, committing to new <br />financial demands does not seem financially advantageous. <br />
