Contract AwardPayroll and PensionDetected Jun 10, 2026

The Board is asked to approve a FY27 collective bargaining agreement between Sandoval County and IAFF Local 4563 covering full-time Fire and Rescue personnel. The agreement, detailed in the attached CBA, sets wages, hours, leave, training expectations, PPE, wellness programs, overtime rules, and other terms for the firefighter bargaining unit. While not a direct procurement, the CBA codifies staffing patterns, training minimums, PPE standards, wellness programs, and overtime structures that drive future purchasing for equipment, training services, and health and safety programs.Vendors supplying fire PPE, uniforms, wellness/fitness services, training, and scheduling/OT management tools should align offerings with the CBA’s requirements as the department implements these terms for FY27.

CBA includes explicit training hour minimums, wellness/fitness initiatives, PPE and uniform provisions, and overtime/comp time rules that will affect operational purchasing and service needs.
