Reedy Creek firefighters settle contract dispute pending vote

Posted | Contributed by Jeff

A two-and-a-half-year contract dispute between the taxing district that serves Walt Disney World and its firefighters union may end soon. Reedy Creek Improvement District Administrator John Classe announced at a board meeting Wednesday that his staff and the firefighters union have reached a tentative agreement. The average raise will be 4.7%, plus $5,000 to cover wages not made during the dispute.
