Board finalizes 2-year pact with police union

The Saukville Village Board approved a new two-year contract with its police union last week.

The contract with the Labor Association of Wisconsin, which represents seven Saukville patrol officers and one sergeant, calls for a 2.25% annual pay increase in 2019 and 2020 and expands funeral leave to include more family members.

The new contract takes effect Jan. 1, 2019.

Village President Barb Dickmann was pleased with how negotiations went.

“They are excellent people to work with and the process went very smoothly,” she said.
