Ottawa County Sheriff - Ottawa County Deputy Sheriff Association

If you weren't there or haven't heard the meeting last night was successful and brief.

The 2009-2011 contract that was negotiated by our team was passed by both non-312 and 312 groups.

Additionally, there have been some changes to your executive board on the road side. Sean James and Jeremy Baum have stepped down from their positions and we give them huge thanks for their service over the years. The new 312 VP is Eric Deboer and you have two new 312 trustees, Greg "Road Patrol" Rotman and Chris Todd.

Matt also has a more in depth review of the action posted in the "Union Business" forums.

Thanks to Sean, Jeremy and our negotiating committee for their hard work. We should also thank the Sheriff, Al Vandenberg and Marie Waalkes for ushering in a new era of earnest negotiation. As always if you have any questions please feel free to email me, the board or any individual member with your thoughts, comments or concerns.
