The District of Coldstream has a new deal with its unionized workers.
The municipality and 35 members of CUPE Local 626, have ratified a two-year collective agreement, effective to the end of 2013. It includes wage increases of 1.5% in each year, plus minor adjustments to existing benefits and improved language. Administrator Mike Stamhuis says the new deal strikes a fair balance between the needs of the employees and today's economic realities. He says, "The District is pleased that a new contract is in place that will enable the positive working relationship with our unionized employees."
