Mayor Bill de Blasio Strikes First Contract Deal With DEP Police - $50K Retro Pay


  With all city labor contract up and waiting to be negotiated Mayor Bill de Blasio has one less headache to worry about as the city has reached an accord with the 200 Department of Environmental Police force. The  DEP police force was the only city union working without a contract from 2005 or for nine years, and they were represented by the Law Enforcement Employees Benevolent Association. Kenneth Wynder the head of LEEBA gave words of praise to the de Blasio administration for its quickness and fairness in the contract.

  The exact details of the contract were not released only that the DEP police will each receive about $50,000.00 in retroactive pay for the nine years without a contract. Robert Linn Mayor de Blasio's new Labor Relations commissioner did not comment on the details that he had worked out with the union.
