Snow Days and Other Issues Upcoming

MLEA Members,

We hope that you enjoyed your extended Christmas vacation; it's funny how often these once-in-a-lifetime storms come any more, isn't it? :-)

With regards to how the days will be made up, your Exec Board will be meeting with Dr. Veltri next week to talk about the calendar and where we want to go. Ryan will be meeting with the Uniserv office and the other local presidents beforehand to make sure we all have the WACs and RCWs straight, and then we'll most likely do an on-line survey to get your opinions. We're waiting for a week to see what the Governor does regarding a state of emergency, as well as to get some direction from OSPI.

The executive board met over the weekend to discuss the current state of issues regarding the association and potential cost-cutting measures as well as our working conditions. More information is coming.

If your building had leaking/flooding issues, please remember that page 25 of the contract provides for reimbursement of personal property damaged in a "disturbance". We haven't had to use that language in a while, but if you did have anything damaged beyond repair we're here to advocate for you if you need it.

If you have any questions please feel free to email your building rep, an exec board member, or call Ryan on his cell phone.

Thank you for all you do, and here's to hoping for good weather from here on out!

--Cheryl, Carol, Kate, and Ryan--
