PRINCE GEORGE — UPDATE: CKPG News has learned the deal has been ratified. It’s a five-year contract though details of the deal have not been released.

Despite that, CUPE 1699 said in a statement:

“This new agreement not only helps ease the affordability challenges workers are facing but will also improve the public services communities throughout the Regional District rely on,” says Burke. “When workers have the support they need, services are more stable, more reliable, and better able to meet the needs of residents. Our focus moving forward is to strengthen our working relationship with the Regional District and continue improving the services that residents and business count on.”

With the deal now ratified, the Regional District of Fraser Fort-George says landfills, transfer stations and recreation centres have returned to regular operations.

The Regional District of Fraser-Fort George says a tentative Collective Agreement has been reached with CUPE 1699, subject to ratification by both parties.

“We are glad we were able to come together and reach common ground. This agreement gives us a chance to move forward and serve our residents,” says Regional District Chair Lara Beckett.

Details of the agreement will be shared publicly once it is ratified by both parties.

Updates about when landfills, transfer stations and recreation centres will return to normal operations will be posted on rdffg.ca as soon as the details are available.

Rotating strikes began on October 15 after mediation efforts failed in August. Wages were the main sticking point.
