SEIU hires additional security to protect Bob Schoonover & Members

Posted on by

After receiving Over 30 threatening phone calls directed at Local 721 President Bob Schoonover after a radio interview on a local talk radio show SEIU 721 has taken several security measures including hiring additional security officers.

According to several staff members, several of the phone calls were credible and all of them have been forwarded to several Law Enforcement agencies.

As many times as I have disagreed with Bob, threats of violence are not acceptable in any way shape or form.

I trust law enforcement sources will quickly identify and prosecute those responsible.

Members should be alert when approaching the local and report any suspicious activity immediately.

Suspects are anti-labor radicals and not SEIU Local  721 members.

 

MUNICIPAL CONSTRUCTION INSPECTORS ASSOCIATION “MCIA” Contract

Posted on by

MUNICIPAL CONSTRUCTION INSPECTORS ASSOCIATION, INC.
(Hereinafter “MCIA”) 

Full MOU Draft.

Included: Furloughs renamed just like the Fiscal Emergency Declaration stated to Unpaid Holidays.

Street Use Inspectors see some gains, overall the membership will decide but like everyone else it is a choice between furloughs or reductions in salary in one form or another.

I take issue with the ” Legal opinion” presented.

As inspectors and Investigators employees are required to know the full section they decide to enforce, they can not pick and choose particular portions of a code and note read the section in it’s entirety.

In the legal opinion I find it flawed in the simple fact that the LACERS Board Can Not Reduce the subsidy below the $1190.00 that is codified, as are increases until now which the council has frozen.

This does not preclude a legal challenge to this action as we all know once you write a citation it doesn’t always end with that it can be challenged and further legal avenues exist.

Crying to the council however is not an option for us as a workforce unlike those who choose to willfully violate the L.A.M.C.
