The Lucknow Sentinel, 1985-05-15, Page 5f Lucknow Sentinel, Wednesday, May 15, 1985—Page 5 Petition supports secretaries By Sharon Dietz A petition of 1,080 names gathered over a 24 hour period, supporting the secret- aries and clerical staff on strike against the Bruce County Board of Education, was tendered to the board at its May 7 meeting moments before the secretaries walked off the job. Trustee Frank Eagleson, repres- enting Port Elgin, Southampton and the Township of Saugeen, presented the petition which urged the board -to return to the negotiating table. The board passed a motion in support of its negotiating committee's offer of 12 per cent phased in over two years shortly after Eagleson tendered the petition. Eagleson and Mary Chatterton, also representing Southampton, Port Elgin and Saugeen Township, voted against the motion. Eagleson said he, does not agree with the board's position not to offer the secretaries and clerical staff parity with the custodians and executive secretaries. He asked negotiating committee chairman- Alvin Thompson, . if a workable solution could be found if the board offered the secretaries 16 per cent over two years or parity with the custodians. Thompson, who is the Kincardine trustee onthe board, said he felt the board's offer was fair with today's job market and the economy today. "If you look at other boards there is a differential between executive and school secretaries,' said Thompson. "We have inherited a problem; perhaps ive now should rectify the situation," said Eagleson. W alkerton trustee Roy W eiler comment- ed the union arm board negotiating committee had reached a. settlement. The union subsequently voted not to ratify the agreement. "I don't think they (the seci$"`taries) know what they want. They keep changing their minds." , When Eagleson tendered the petition to the board, trustee Thompson remarked he had taken two days from spring seeding for which he does not get paid. "I negotiated as fairly as possible and I didn't see you there," said Thompson. referring to Eagleson. Thompson went on to voice his objection to Eagleson present- ing a petition to the board and Eagleson. apologized, saying he had been asked to bring the petition to the board.
