After a grueling two-plus-year negotiation process, the CFCP Negotiations Team is pleased to inform you that we are now ready to provide a series of tentative agreements for your review and then vote on by members in good standing.   

In total, we reached tentative agreements with the District on 26 articles.

Here are some highlights to be found in the new contract once the membership ratifies it:

• Expanded protection of Classified Professionals when working in extreme temperatures.

• Compensation for Classified Professionals when required to remain on the worksite during times of extraordinary events (i.e., fires/smoke, civil unrest, threat to public safety).

• Codified Remote Work terms.

• Recognition of Juneteenth as a holiday.

• Greater definitions around bullying and harassment.

• Codification of the Work Experience Program.

• Continuation of COLA.

​​​​​​​​Additionally, the team campaigned tenaciously for compensation increases, but the District was adamant in rejecting any and all economic enhancements at this time due to their projections of flattening revenues and budget deficits. CFCP reserves the right to re-open negotiations on economic considerations, as well as other matters, in years two and three of the proposed contract.

These tentative agreements are the result of the diligent work of Quintin Powell, our Chief Negotiator who relentlessly defended classified professionals and challenged “district math” at every turn, CFCP President Andrew Deaso, who held a pivotal role by protecting and improving worker’s rights as well as the rest of the negotiations team: Jamie Crowder, Michael Carrizo, Kevin Donahue, Therese Grande, and Vanessa Ayala. Furthermore, we thank our negotiations research team for providing the necessary and invaluable information to help build counter-proposals that would strengthen contract language.
