Background

BACKGROUND: The existing collective bargaining agreement between Sauk County and WPPA L241 (Sheriff’s Department Sworn Unit) expires on December 31, 2023. The Personnel and Insurance Committee has negotiated a tentative agreement with WPPA L241 (attached hereto), for the terms of a successor agreement for the calendar dates of January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2026. In accordance with Wisconsin Act 10, certain sworn law enforcement officers maintained collective bargaining rights pursuant to Wis Stats. 111.70/111.77.

 

The provisions of the tentative agreements reflect a commitment of Sauk County to remain competitive with the wage rates of neighboring counties, and the dedication of both parties to recruit and retain the highest quality employees for Sauk County.  Therefore, the Personnel and Insurance Committee, after careful consideration and review, believes the provisions of the tentative agreement as being in the best interest of Sauk County.
