MWDEA Tentative Agreement Reached: Vote Today

Dear Mesa Water District Employees Association member,

As we recently announced, the District and MWDEA have reached a tentative agreement on a new 5-year contract. You can view the terms of the new agreement here.

Your MWDEA Bargaining Team pushed the District as far as possible—to the point of receiving a Last, Best and Final Offer. This proposed contract benefits our members, and we unanimously recommend a YES vote to approve the tentative agreement.

We hope you made it to our membership meeting. If you didn’t but have questions, please contact OCEA Senior Labor Relations Representative Aaron Peardon at 714-835-3355, ext. 242 or apeardon@ocea.org.

Voting is live now at this link and will close at 5 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 28. We are proud that we fought hard and secured a fair contract for every one of you. Thank you to all who were involved!

In Solidarity,

Epuni Hinnebusch
