On Your November 3 Ballot
Propositions “A” & “B” Explained
City of Abilene voters will decide two firefighter labor measures on the November 3 ballot. Here is what each one would do, in plain language. These measures appear on ballots within Abilene city limits — check your sample ballot to confirm what applies to you.
Collective Bargaining for Abilene Firefighters
Would replace the City of Abilene's current 'meet and confer' negotiation process with collective bargaining under Chapter 174 of the Texas Local Government Code. This would give Abilene firefighters a formal, legally binding process for negotiating wages, benefits, and working conditions with the city.
- Replaces the current 'Meet and Confer' process (Chapter 142) with collective bargaining (Chapter 174)
- Covers pay, benefits, and other employment conditions for Abilene Fire Department members
- A 'yes' vote adopts collective bargaining for the fire department
Binding Arbitration for Contract Impasses
Would establish a process for resolving contract disputes when negotiations between the city and the firefighters' union reach an impasse — up to and including binding arbitration, where a neutral third party makes a final decision both sides must follow.
- Creates a formal process for resolving stalled contract negotiations
- Arbitrators must work within the city's available revenue — decisions cannot force spending the city does not have
- A 'yes' vote adopts binding arbitration (or court enforcement) as the impasse-resolution process
