Staff Recommendation: The item should be received and filed, because the November 11, 2024, draft provided by the Racine Police Association is not a tentative agreement, is not properly formatted to be executed, is not consistent with the contractual terms negotiated by the parties, is not consistent with the contractual terms approved by the Common Council on March 21, 2023, and in part violates arbitrator and judicial decisions. Further, to implement the language in the November 11, 2024, draft provided by the Racine Police Association would incur substantial costs, exacerbating the City of Racine’s structural deficit and potentially leading to significant negative consequences for City operations.
Recommendation of the Finance and Personnel Committee on 03-10-2025: To Defer.
