Collective Bargaining
Assistant Town Manager Ray Santilli informed the Board that the Town reached a Memorandum of
Agreement(MOA)with three AFSCME municipal unions; Public Works, Clerical and Professional Librarians.

Board decided to ratify these contracts first there should be no public comment until the unions ratify the
contracts.

realized with changes in health insurance contribution then the Board decided to vote each contract
separately.
