RESOLUTION APPROVING A ONE -YEAR LABOR CONTRACT FOR THE YEAR
2010 WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT LABOR SERVICES, INC. (LELS) LOCAL NO. 232,
REPRESENTING SERGEANTS
WHEREAS, the labor agreement between the City of Mounds View and LELS Local
232 expired at the end of 2009; and,
WHEREAS, negotiations between the City and LELS reached an impasse in 2010,
resulting in mediation; and,
WHEREAS, because mediation did not result in a settlement, LELS exercised its right
to binding arbitration, which was scheduled for October 8, 2010; and,
WHEREAS, prior to the arbitration scheduled for October 8, an arbitrator's ruling
affecting LELS Local 204 (Patrol Officers) was released on September 29 which awarded a
one -year contract to that unit with an increase in insurance contributions to $867.33 per
month; and,
WHEREAS, rather than going through the time and expense of arbitration, LELS
Local 232 agreed to drop all outstanding issues for 2010 in return for the same one -year
contract and additional insurance contributions awarded LELS Local 204.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Mounds
View does hereby ratify a labor agreement for and with Local 232 of Law Enforcement Labor
Services, Inc., with an increased City insurance contribution of $867.33 per month,
retroactively effective for one year from January 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010
Adopted this 25th day of October, 2010.
