Welcome to the New CFPBA.US
A Message From the President (February, 2012)
Dear Members:
The year is already proving to be a busy one here at the CFPBA/PEA. I would like to thank all of you for helping make sure the fast start is a good one. Many contracts are up for renegotiation this year, while most others have re-openers of some kind. Together with your reps, our staff is already digging in and setting negotiation sessions on your behalf.
Melbourne PD Rallies Ahead of Impasse
Preparing for what could be an arduous battle over wages, pensions, health insurance and shift schedules, the men and women of the Melbourne Police Department PBA bargaining unit came together on January 10 to show solidarity before members of the city council. Over 50 officers, their families and colleagues in the fire department joined together as council members were briefed on the remaining differences in contract negotiations by CFPBA staff.
BSCO Debate This Month
With a rare, open race for sheriff in Brevard county this year, the CFPBA is doing all it can to ensure our members have a voice and make an informed decision as to who should be the next chief law enforcement officer in the county. To that end, the PBA has scheduled February 23, 2012 at the Police Hall of Fame in Titusville to host a debate among all active candidates for Sheriff. Current candidates include Adrian Beasley, Ernest Cathy, Gary Harrell, Wayne Ivey, Todd Maddox and Mark Orndoff.
