Welcome to CFFA 660

Congratulations to Tripp Fincher on being elected to the Vice-president position of Local 660. Tripp will be sworn in on January 14, 2O20 at our monthly business meeting.

We would also like to thank Chris Tackson for not only running for VP, but also for the time he has dedicated to our membership as Vice President as well as the Treasurer of our Union. We know that he will stay active in our movement 

The problems began in January of 2019 and continues today with vague policy and yet"unapproved by HR" (11/14/19) interviews for specialty stations. The Local does not endorse the practice of a "fit test" or "interviews" for specialty stations. You union has, and always will believe that when all basic certifications are met, the sole deciding factor should be seniority. The command staff does not support this position.  

First brough to command staff in November of 2018- Not resolved

First brought to command staff in ----- We were told committee would have answers. Then it was referred to a sub-committee to work on. Then was given to two Battalion Chiefs to work on. Lasted update as of 10/23 is City of Charlotte is working on new policy and hopfully be out soon. 

In June, the city passed the budget which included a provision for 1% to be added in our 401k on January of 2020 and another 1% in January of 2021. In late September, the city staff said that would not happen and it would be a 457 with the money in it and they blamed the State Treasurers office. This is unacceptable as both your Local and the Command staff are working together to offer solutions to assist the city, but staff is not responding.
