Local 1620 is proud to announce that we have finally settled our contract Arbitration dispute with the City of Wayne that began in 2019 after the City stripped away a promised benifit of retiree healthcare. This journey had the prior City Administration committing Unfair Labor Practices and even tried to get a court injunction against our right to have an arbitrator decide on our inpass. It was 5 years of expensive court battles that ended at the Michigan Court of Appeals.

Thankfully our new City Manager Diane Webb was willing to sit down through some tough conversations to find a resolution that was acceptable to both parties. Last night the City Council ratified a letter of agreement that will help our members retiree with dignity after a career in the service of others and not have thier life savings drained quickly by healthcare costs.

A huge Thank You to the work of everyone to bring about this resolution, and we look forward to finally having a City Administrator who is willing to sit down and actually talk through the issues
