As the city of Beverly Hills prepares to commence negotiations with the Municipal Employees Association Part-Time Unit, the public is encouraged to provide feedback and input at the virtual City Council meeting on Tuesday, Aug 17, at 7 p.m.
In accordance with state law, the city of Beverly Hills participates in labor negotiations with its employee associations. The results of the negotiations process are written agreements or contracts reached between the city and the city employee associations referred to as a memorandum of understanding.
The Municipal Employees Association of Beverly Hills Part-Time Unit has an MOU which expires on Oct. 8. The Aug. 17 meeting is a formal opportunity for the public to ask questions, voice concerns and offer feedback to the City Council. The meet-and-confer process for a successor memorandum of understanding with the employee association is the next step.
Following the public meeting and opportunity to provide input, the City Council will direct its labor negotiator regarding strategy and authority for the upcoming negotiations.
Public comment may be provided virtually during the meeting by visiting beverlyhills-org.zoom.us/my/bevpublic. Use the passcode: 90210. Prior to the meeting, written comments should be submitted by emailing cityclerk@beverlyhills.org.
In 2014, the Beverly Hills City Council adopted a Civic Openness in Negotiations ordinance to provide additional impartiality and transparency in the collective bargaining process. As required by the ordinance, the meeting provides the community an opportunity to provide the City Council with comments.
