The Beverly Hills City Council will consider written contracts with five of its nine employee associations at its formal session on Dec. 10. The agreements, each of which is known as a “memorandum of understanding” (MOU) pertain to the Management & Professional Association, Supervisors Association, Confidential Employees Association, Municipal Employees Association and Municipal Employees Association Part-Time Unit.
Beverly Hills is required by state law to meet and confer with the associations in good faith to reach agreement on wages, benefits and other terms and conditions of employment. The process can take several months. “The public is encouraged to provide input,” said Beverly Hills Chief Labor Negotiator Peter Brown at an Informational Community Meeting on April 11.
