City Council unanimously passed a historic collective bargaining ordinance at a public hearing on Saturday.
The newly passed ordinance will mark the first time the city will grant its public sector employees the legal right to collectively bargain. Collective bargaining, which is the legal process by which employees negotiate wages, benefits and working conditions with their employers, has long been outlawed for government workers in the city and the state.
Under the new ordinance, city employees will be allowed to enter into binding legal negotiations with the city over wages and benefits as well as other conditions of their employment, including procedures for resolving grievances, provisions for workplace safety and scheduling.

Representatives from Inova Alexandria Hospital hosted a community meeting via Zoom on Jan. 6 to discuss rezoning the hospital’s current Seminary Road location in advance of the redevelopment of Landmark Mall, which will include a new Inova hospital campus.
The meeting came as part of a series of virtual community forums hosted by the City of Alexandria, developer Foulger-Pratt and representatives from Inova regarding the health care provider’s proposed $1 billion investment in the redevelopment of Landmark Mall.
Located on the city’s West End, the new facility will feature a 230-bed hospital with a fully operable cancer treatment center and will also be certified as a level two trauma center. Once completed, the hospital would become one of three level- two trauma centers in Virginia.
