CITY GOVERNMENT
• The Millbrae City Council will consider amending the contract
with Firefighters Association Local 2400 representing a 4.3 percent
decrease in compensation between July 1, 2010 and June 30, 2011.
Reductions will come by reducing the number of vacation days
each employee is eligible for by three days, forfeiting the retiree
health savings account contribution, forfeiting pay for two of the 12
holidays, and accepting a lower uniform allowance, according to a
staff report written by City Manager Marcia Raines.
Last week, the council unanimously approved contract agreements with three labor
unions: Sanitation Workers Association, Millbrae Police Officers Association and
Teamsters Local 856. Each unit agreed to a variety of cuts equaling 4.3 percent. The deci-
sion means workers will have furlough days, less vacation time and will go without uniform
allowances. The city is estimated to save $460,800 this year because of the agreements.
The council meets 7 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 26 at City Hall, 621 Magnolia Ave. in Millbrae.
