Board ratifies three‑year Teamsters contract covering public works

Staff summarized the proposed three‑year agreement with Teamsters Local Union No. 383 for the public‑works department, saying it was the township’s first formal contract for that group, negotiated within parameters set by the board and including wage increases (described in the packet as 3.5% and 3% across the term) plus a tier for new hires. A motion to ratify the agreement was made, seconded and approved by voice vote.

Staff thanked human‑resources and management personnel for negotiating the agreement; the motion to ratify passed without recorded roll‑call details in the transcript.
