City approves two police bargaining units in new ordinance
Frederick officials voted to create separate bargaining units for police commissioned and noncommissioned officers. The plan keeps sergeants and below in one unit under the FOP while lieutenants and above form another, a move City Attorney Tillery says prevents conflicts of interest with management roles. Police Chief Raffensberger notes the setup mirrors larger cities and reflects differing duties. FDP President Grubb says cooperation led to changes though future negotiations depend on the budget process.
