261 Committee Members moving 2009 Bids (SFRPD & SFDPW) to become final!


Brothers & Sisters:
Bid Committees in each Department are working toward finalizing the Shift Bids for 2009. These are very important negotiations that take place pursuant to the appendix of our MOU that benefit the membership a great deal. Our Thanks go out to Joan Vellutini, Adrian Rojo, Hugh McDermott, Bob Nastor, Terry McDevitt of RPD and Edison Fincher, Theresa Foglio, Nikki Mixon, Robert Stafford, and Dan Feerick of DPW. We will be working towards expanding the practice in other Departments. Please try to attend monthly meetings to keep up to date on our collective progress.
