Judge Joseph Pawlikowski took under advisement a countersuit by the American Federation of Teachers Local 2170 against the Clark County Classroom Teachers Association. AFT president Duane Oaks objects to a clause that could void the entire agreement if the association loses official bargaining status, citing sick leave and insurance provisions.

Auditors Will Scoot Again On Repainted Vehicles
After a two month pause Las Vegas auditors return to patrol in three repainted three wheel scooters. Ila Britt says the park is near city hall with Jamie Doloran and Leo O Leary assigned to the reintroduced fleet.

City Manager Bill Adams plans to cap top aide raises under a proposed reclassification tied to the IPA study. Directors Spaulding and Cathcart start at the lowest pay step, with 1,000 Las Vegas personnel affected and an estimated first-year cost of $350,000. 170 employees await freezes, and commission approval plus union review precede any changes. In Washington, the US balance of payments showed a $1.1 billion third quarter deficit versus an $800 million rise earlier.
