Escondido Firefighters Agree to New Contract

Firefighters in Escondido, California in the northern part of San Diego County ratified a new labor contract Tuesday. The new contract includes a 6 percent pay raise, a reduction in holiday hours and pension changes. They are the first city labor union to agree to pay their own pension contributions, saving the city $315,000, according to the North County Times. The changes will not affect how much employees receive when they retire but it will help shrink the department's $17 million budget.
