Re: Binding Arbitration Award Update

Dear Mayor:

In our May 12 letter, we advised you of the first binding arbitration award that took into consideration our current economic crisis. (See our letter at
http://www.njslom.org/ml051209-arbitration.html.)

We have posted, on our website, a link to the actual award document. You can access the decision at http://www.njslom.org/arbitration-05-05-09-PBA-105-AWARD.pdf, or by going through the May 12 letter.

Be sure to check our Arbitration Center page for updates.

We recommend that you consult with your municipal and/or labor attorney on how this may impact your community.

Very truly yours,

William G. Dressel, Jr.
Executive Director
