Boardman cops reject two-tiered pact

BOARDMAN — Township police patrolmen rejected a fact finder’s report that called for different wage scales and vacation accumulation for new and current officers.

Chuck Mound, co-director of the Ohio Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association Patrol Unit, which represents the township’s 34 patrolmen, said union members rejected the report today by a 30-0 vote. Four members were absent.

The contract between the township and union will head to binding arbitration.
