<br /> Testimony by Ralph Boyea <br /> r <br /> <br /> December 17, 1997 <br /> County Council Meeting ~ ~ : l . <br /> r <br /> CC~'J <br /> Chairperson Arakaki and Members of the Council <br /> Good morning, my name is Ralph Boyea. I am a Union Agent with the Hawaii <br /> <br /> Government Employees Association. <br /> I am here to speak in favor of Resolution 185-97. <br /> It is upsetting to hear that the Council is considering rejecting this proposal. This is <br /> especially true, due to the fact that the increase of 5.06% over 2 years was an offer made by the <br /> employer to settle the already delayed 1997 to 1999 collective bargaining agreements. <br /> The fact is that the increase for FY 1998 is only 2.23% for the last 6 months of the year.. <br /> For a cost of $375,516 for FY98 plus 'estimated' fringe benefit costs of $52,714. The total <br /> estimated at $428,230. Given today's time restraints, we will not debate the "estimated" fringe <br /> benefit costs at this time.
