The District of Saanich has come to a tentative agreement with 1,200 municipal workers represented by CUPE Local 2011, after nearly a year of negotiations.

CUPE Local 2011 president Ryan Graham said itB次元官网网址檚 been quite a long negotiation process, but he believes the settlement reached on Tuesday (Oct. 25) morning is one that will almost certainly benefit union members.

B次元官网网址淲e are confident that this new agreement will help with the affordability challenges our members are facing,B次元官网网址 Graham said in a release. B次元官网网址淲e are pleased that we were able to find common ground with the District of Saanich and reach an agreement that is fair to workers and protects the public services residents and businesses rely on.B次元官网网址

As the agreement requires ratification from both the unionB次元官网网址檚 members and the District of Saanich, its terms have not yet been made public. Union members will have an opportunity to accept or reject the new agreement with a ratification vote scheduled for Nov.3.

Public services provided by CUPE Local 2011 members include water, wastewater, sanitation, roads, parks, planning, recreation centres as well as support for municipal police and fire operations.
