Grotto’s
Ed welcomed everyone present, and thanked all for their
support of him over the last years, he has enjoyed working with all. Those present were Kathy Law, Susan Krause,
Sharon Sherwood, Tim Eitner, Joe Kirk, Donna Schirmer, Joan Williamson, Mary
Beth D’Amico, Ed Murauskus.
Negotiations
- We have been bargaining for 15 months.
The Teachers union is near to ratifying their contract, but CHSSA is
not. There are 3 issues that are
separating us from agreement. The three
issues in contention are;
1. D.O. wants a 4 year contract, CHSSA is asking
for a 3year contract. CHSSA has
determined it was not to our benefit to bargain at the same time as the
teachers and if we agree to a 4 year contract we will be back at the table the
same time as they are,
2. DO does not want
to give 12 month employees spring break, CHSSA is asking for it,
3. D.O. is unwilling to upgrade the Senior Secretaries in
each building to financial secretary which is what we are asking for. It is
uncertain when the two groups will be meeting again.
Treasurers Report
- There is $6,688.02 in checking acct, $7,579.26 in the General Fund, $6,224.69
in the CAL fund, and $2,953.45 in the Scholarship Fund.
A motion was made and passed to pay for the flowers Joan
purchased from Silk and Sands Florist for Peggy Kirby’s funeral, and to also
send in a donation to Hospice on her behalf. We also passed a motion to pay for
this meeting expense.
