Last month the UFT sent a formal request to the city to begin contract negotiations. So far, we have not had a reply. However, the UFT negotiators tell us that this is not unusual, and that typically the city takes several months before beginning to negotiate. There is no formal deadline for a response from the city, but failing to reply after a long period of time could be seen as a failure to negotiate in good faith.
In the meantime, the Negotiating Committee is continuing to meet, keeping an eye on the ongoing changes at ECB and considering how these might alter our negotiating stance.
As always, we will keep the membership informed of any new developments.
