Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve the labor agreement
between the City of Lakeville and Law Enforcement Labor Services, Inc. Local No. 128 for 2018
and 2019.
Overview
A two-year agreement has been reached with the Police Officer’s union which will take effect on
January 1, 2018 and continue through December 31, 2019. This agreement will provide a 3%
increase to wages effective January 1, 2018; a .5% increase effective December 17, 2018; and a 3%
increase effective January 1, 2019.
The agreement also provides health insurance rates identical to the non-union employees.
Additional items include a $50 annual increase for uniform allowance, and Field Training
Officers will earn 1.5 hours of compensatory time or pay for each shift worked as a Training
Officer.
The Personnel Committee has reviewed the agreement and is recommending its approval.
Primary Issues to Consider
• How does the proposed wage increase compare to comparable cities? The average increase
of those contracts that are settled is 3% per year.
