*** STATEMENT *** MAYOR LEE'S STATEMENT ON SETTLEMENT REACHED WITH ADDITIONAL CITY EMPLOYEE UNIONS
Mayor Edwin M. Lee today made the following statement on the mediated settlement reached in contract negotiations with Plumbing and Pipefitting, Local 38, the union representing City employee plumbers, steam fitters and mechanics, and the Consolidated Craft Union representing carpenters, teamsters, painters, sheet metal workers, pile drivers, glaziers and others: 

  
"We have reached an agreement with Local 38 and other City employee unions that balance the need for structural budget reforms while recognizing the vital City services our employees provide to residents. I thank members of the bargaining teams and the arbitrators for their efforts in reaching these tentative agreements." 
  
No details will be released until the union members conclude ratification of the tentative agreement. 

Other City employee unions include Municipal Executives Association (MEA) and Municipal Attorney's Association (MAA). Last week, Mayor Lee announced a mediated settlement reached in contract negotiations with the International Federation of Professional and Technical Engineers (IFPTE), Local 21.
