A street sign will be unveiled tomorrow, Saturday June 13th at 2PM, in memory of Aldona Vaiciunas, our Grievance Coordinator and Office Administrator for more than 25 years. The ceremony, complete with speeches, local press coverage and refreshments afterwards, will take place by the corner of Hudson Avenue and Evans Street in the Vinegar Hill section of Brooklyn (next to Dumbo).

As Aldona was also the long-time President of the Vinegar Hill Neighborhood Association, the sign placement by her corner is perfect.

The closest subway is the York Street station on the F line (the first stop in Brooklyn).

Aldona was exceptionally talented and devoted to our members. I hope as many people as possible attend so we can pay Aldona the final tribute that she richly deserves!

Hi All,

You should be receiving the CSBA Member Survey in the next couple of days. What's new for us is that it can be opened and completed from the convenience of your cellphone. Just scan the QR code included in the letter.

If this method doesn't work for you, please reach out to us at [email protected] and we'll arrange for you to get a more traditional hard copy.

We look forward to discussing the results and the upcoming round of collective bargaining with you at the CSBA Annual Meeting on Tuesday June 23rd.

Thanks as always for your interest and participation!

Best regards,
Saul

As announced at our March 31st CSBA Membership Meeting, the Remote Work Program has been extended for (at least) another year, through May 31, 2027.

Tier 6 enhancements towards equalization with the earlier Tier 4 pension tier are being negotiated as part of the now-overdue NYS budget. Although the contemplated funding is inadequate to fully Fix Tier 6, you may be able to contribute a bit less towards your pension and/or be allowed to retire at an earlier age without penalty. Stay tuned, or even better, contact your State Assemblymember and State Senator!

Also mentioned was that our Collective Bargaining Agreement expires on October 17th, and we will be sending out a Member Survey shortly to obtain the maximum possible member input. We definitely want to hear Your priorities and suggestions, and anticipate discussing the results at our Annual Meeting scheduled for Tuesday June 23rd.

Finally, many thanks to all who participated in our well-attended March 31st meeting. Special thanks to our special Guest Speakers prominent labor lawyer Alan M. Klinger of Steptoe LLP and EmblemHealth Senior Vice President George Babitsch, who provided us with a very comprehensive explanation of the new NYCE PPO health insurance for city employees and answered a lot of our questions.

As always, if you have any questions or issues that you would like to bring to our attention, please reach out to us at [email protected]. One of our two Business Agents/ Grievance Advocates or I will almost certainly reply to you within a very short period of time.

Best regards,
Saul
