Aldermen voted Tuesday to override the mayorâs veto of a portion of a new bargaining agreement for city firefighters.
Nashua firefighters have been working without a contract since July 2019, and although aldermen adopted a four-year contract last month, Mayor Jim Donchess vetoed a segment of the agreement that allows for an optional high deductible health plan with health savings account.
âI ask that we please override this (veto) tonight and move forward,â said Alderman David Tencza, noting firefighters are already in year two of the new contract.
Thomas Wholey, president of the International Association of Fire Fighters Local 789, said earlier that although the overall cost of the contract is a 15.8% increase, that percentage includes retirement, insurance and salary; the actual wage increases represent about 10% of that number, he explained.
