The Solano County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously to approve tentative memorandums of understanding with two law‑enforcement bargaining groups and two probation officer units and delegated authority to complete the final documents to county administrative staff.
Nigel Edwards, the county’s Human Resources director, told the board the county "met and conferred with unit 17, 18, which is represented by Law Enforcement Management Association, as well as 12 and 15, which is represented by the Solano Probation Peace Officer Association." He said each union had ratified its tentative agreement and that the agreements include a pay‑parity side letter, "so essentially, it's called a me too," and a side letter allowing members to receive any lump‑sum cash payments offered to other units under the same conditions.
The agreements cover the term from 12/21/2025 through 10/28/2028, and the board authorized the County Administrative Officer or the Director of Human Resources to execute the final memorandums of understanding and to make technical, non‑substantive adjustments consistent with the approved tentative agreements. The board also approved the meeting agenda earlier in the session by a separate 5‑0 vote.
There was no public comment on the item, and supervisors raised no substantive questions during the staff presentation. After the approvals, the board recessed into a closed session on labor negotiations under Government Code section 54957.6; counsel indicated there would be no report out following that closed session.
What the board approved was limited to the tentative agreements and the delegation of authority to finalize them; specific dollar amounts, any detailed wage schedules, and the names of motion movers or seconders were not provided in the public transcript and are therefore listed as not specified in the record. The county staff will complete and sign the final MOUs and implement them according to the terms described to the board.
The board convened the closed session immediately afterward; no further public action was taken at the time the public record ends.
