    Ganim And Unions Reach A Deal

    Mayor Joe Ganim and the unions have come to an agreement where both sides seem to come out ahead, exactly the way a good negotiation should end. Unions delayed their raises for one year in return for further job security down the line. In addition, employees that were terminated after the unions rejected Ganim's first offer will also be brought back. Unfortunately for Ganim, he probably needed a bigger win here as he only managed to save $700,000 dollars with this deal. This still leaves another $3.3 million hole in the budget that the mayor must fill.
