Biddeford Police Union Seeks Prehearing On Contract Battle
The Maine Public Employees Labor Relations Board set a July 2 pre hearing conference between Biddeford police union and the city over an unfair labor practice complaint. The dispute centers on two readings of contract provisions that increased patrolmen base pay and shift differentials by about seven percent, while council members later rejected the deal, partly over a top step raise. The union claims two readings are not required and questions a missing vote on a union shop clause. City officials defend two readings for money matters and note a mediation tied to terms. It is unclear when the complaint will go to the labor relations board for a ruling.
