LOS ANGELES, June 24, 2011 – The Los Angeles Police Protective League and the City of Los Angeles have reached a tentative agreement for a successor Memorandum of Understanding covering more than 9,900 LAPD officers.
“We have reached a tentative contract agreement to replace the previous MOU, which expires June 30, 2011,” LAPPL President Paul M. Weber said. “As in any contract negotiation, neither side got everything they wanted. However, we believe this contract is fair, but reflects the current budget issues faced by the City.”
"The dates and times of ratification sessions have been arranged and our membership is being notified. Details of the tentative agreement will be presented and fully discussed at those sessions with our members,” added Weber. “In keeping with the terms of the negotiation process and our commitment to our membership, the LAPPL will not disclose the terms of the tentative agreement pending a ratification vote.”
About the LAPPL: Formed in 1923, the Los Angeles Police Protective League (LAPPL) represents the more than 9,900 dedicated and professional sworn members of the Los Angeles Police Department. The LAPPL serves to advance the interests of LAPD officers through legislative and legal advocacy, political action and education. The LAPPL can be found on the Web at www.LAPD.com.
