Bargaining Units and Budgeting

 Two Stories from the CSD

We learn how our community Services District Board has set the direction for bargaining with Park Maintenance Workers in a new decision this week

AND

The course for the coming year in the CSD budget. Dealing with more lean times.

Plus, a recent update on School staffing, and a visit with Trent's Bookshelf, a brand new business in our community.


Bargaining Units: The Cosumnes Community Services District or CSD Set the direction for future bargaining with our Local Park Maintenance workers and the Teamsters Local #150. It was a decision not without contention.

Budget Blues: Managing a budget in the face of declining revenues - Elk Grove's salad days are not back yet. Certainly not at the CSD, where this week, General Manager Jeff Ramos outlined budget projections for the coming year.

School Staffing: The EGUSD publishes a promise to minimize layoffs, but the language is less than clear.  Are they hedging?

Plus: and interview with new business owner Diane Trent of Trent's Bookshelf.

All, on this weeks edition of RadioElkGrove.
