Greg - I have attached the memo we provided the bargaining unit. You will notice that in no way does it state “agreement from the Union”. I agree that you did not agree – that statement is coming from somewhere else.
What I can state is that you and I had discussions and that is why the word consultation was used. We discussed that the contract was silent on job descriptions. We discussed the use of the word supervisor. We discussed our need to have three people at the Waste Water Treatment Plant and that may result in additional people and wage adjustments for the Leads. I am in complete agreement that there was never a discussion of wholesale agreement from the Union and the City has never made that statement.
I am sorry for the confusion. I did keep Adam Schultz in the loop as well and he mentioned this is not coming from him. Let me know a good time to chat.

Dan –
Adam Schultz tells me that revised job descriptions/classifications have been distributed to the department in the last day or two, some or all of which contain additional or modified duties. I caveat this by saying I have not seen any of the documents. Further, Adam indicates that documents attribute agreement from the Union to the changes that are contained there in.
Prior to sending this message, I have reviewed every email communication between you and I and I can find and I do not locate any message or string of messages that would be constructed as agreement to wholesale revisions of department wide job descriptions.
Can you please provide some clarity on what is happening and what the intention of the City is?
I’ll be in southern Oregon most of next week in mediation, but will have good access to email and cell grid.
