BCEA Negotiation Update: May 3, 2023

Dear BCEA member,

Your BCEA Negotiations Team met with the City for a negotiations' session Tuesday, May 2. During this meeting we presented our first proposal. While we cannot share the specifics of this proposal due to the secure exchange of information in the negotiations process, please know that our proposal puts wages first, and is reflective of the surveys you completed, the economic climate, inflation, and the effect these circumstances have on you and your family.

We have a follow-up meeting scheduled for Tuesday, May 9, and we are cautiously optimistic that we will be able to make further movement with the City. Thank you to our BCEA Board for their continued guidance during these negotiations and to all members who have stepped up to get involved in the process. Stay tuned for more information.

In Solidarity,

BCEA
