BAILEY, GENERAL MANAGER ANN SASAKI, DEPUTY GENERAL MANAGER FROM: TEJI O'MALLEY, HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGER •c‘C° SUBJECT: BART NEGOTIATIONS UPDATE This memo is to provide information to the Administration Committee on the results of recent negotiations at Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART). On Thursday, May 12, 2016, the BART Board of Directors ratified agreements with three unions to extend their contracts for four years. Terms of the agreement are as follows: ✓ Contract Length: 2017 - 2021 ✓ Salary increase of 10.5% over 4 years: 2.5%, 2.5%, 2.75%, 2.75% ✓ Pension: The agreement allows BART and its unions to address the topic when there is more clarity on the issue. Currently, there is litigation pending on the California Public Employees' Pension Reform Act (PEPRA) between the State and U.S. Department of Labor, and both sides agreed to discuss pensions at a later point. ✓ The remaining terms of the existing agreement will remain the same. I will be available at the Committee meeting to answer any questions.
