So, Ragusta won't take the case. That means its a loser for the city. Why waste MORE taxpayer money little Joey? Pension provisions are a negotiated item. The city cannot arbitrarily enact any changes, but they did. The Firefighters Union filed a grievance, and won. Too bad for Mayor Joey, he has to live with it or negotiate a change. And, a city ordinance will not supersede a contractual clause. As for timing of the grievance filing, you are not grieved until there has been a violation of a contract clause. The Union HAD to wait until a member was grieved to file. Its really basic labor law, nothing secret or underhanded as the current clown mayor would have you believe. Hopefully this time during negotiations with the Firefighters Union little Joey will not leak the information to the press ahead of a vote like last time. Or Joey, just negotiate in good faith with the Union. But we all know that would be too hard for you to do and there would be no blame to cast unless it was upon yourself. Time to start acting like a Mayor instead of a petulant little child.
