The letter:
Mr. Giancola we are preparing for our negotiations meeting on December 11, 2013. We have been advised that the County is beginning to prepare its concluding offers. As you know the County has been diligently attempting to reduce employee pay and benefits for rank and file employees.
Our members would like to know if you and your executive team have any intention to reduce your pay and benefits. In particular are you or your executives prepared to reduce:
1. Your $760.00 per month car allowance (this amount will allow you to lease two Mercedes Benz automobiles)
2. Your fully taxpayer funded 401k Retirement Contribution (which is on top of your 2.7% @ 55 current retirement benefit)
3. Your $4500.00 optional benefit ( which you and your executives have taken in cash which was not its intended purpose)
4. Your 170 hour Annual Cash Out (which is almost 4 times more than a rank and file employee)
5. Your Golden Parachute which allows executives to cash out 580 hours upon separation and 50% of 1600 hours.
Your response is critical to our evaluation of your proposals to your employees. We are looking for leadership from the top !!!
