NorCo Deputy Sheriffs Approve New County Contract

The union representing Northampton County Deputy Sheriffs has voted to endorse a new, three-year, labor contract. The terms of the new deal will be revealed when the new contract is presented to County Council for approval. It is expected, however, that the contract terms will be in line with six other labor contracts that Executive Lamont McClure has negotiated since assuming office.

The one holdout is the union representing corrections officers.

One county union, the one representing court-related professionals like probation officers, has disbanded. Since they serve at the pleasure of the court, there is little a union can do for them.

  1. Did you ever report on the details of the contract for the Human Services employees? I must have missed it. As usual, I get scant local government information from the "newspapers."

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
