URBANA, OH (WDTN) - 2 NEWS has learned that the city of Urbana has tentatively
accepted concessions proposed by firefighters that would save their
jobs.
A union representative says firefighters will take pay cuts
and reductions in their benefits so that they can keep the
department intact. However, the union representing Urbana police
says it is not agreeing to concessions and some officers could
receive layoff notices as early as today.
2 NEWS is still waiting to hear back from the city administrator
about budget cuts and the impact on public safety.
