PDEO Vote Results
Recommendation:
By Minute Motion approve amendment No. 2 to the Memorandum of
Understanding (M.O.U.) with the Palm Desert Employee's Organization
(P.D.E.O.) extending the expiration date to May 31, 2011.
Background:
The City has one recognized bargaining unit, the Palm Desert Employee's
Organization, which represents general, non -management employees.
The current M.O.U. with this group was approved February 27, 2008 and
expires on February 28, 2011. Negotiations with the P.D.E.O. have begun;
however both parties would benefit from access to FY 2011/2012 budget
information prior to finalizing negotiations on a successor M.O.U..
Budget information, along with Council direction on budget issues, should
be available beginning in March 2011; therefore it is advantageous to
extend the current M.O.U. through May 31, 2011. The City Manager has
set a meeting for April 22, 2011, which is after Council reviews
departmental budgets, to continue negotiations.
