El Paso's $28M Firefighter Contract Gap: Negotiations Heat Up
Description
El Paso city officials and firefighters union clash over a $28 million contract gap, with the union proposing a $66 million increase and the city countering with a $38 million hike. The main sticking point is cost-of-living bumps and step pay raises, which could add $16.6 million to the tab next year alone. City council will review the budget in July, and any final deal requires union votes and council approval. The current contract expires August 31st, leaving little time for a resolution.
