Approving contracts for the city’s police and fire departments are on the Sturgeon Bay Common Council’s to-do list for Tuesday’s meeting. The new contracts for the Sturgeon Bay Professional Police Association/LEER Division Local 449 and the Sturgeon Bay Firefighter Association Local 2682 would both run for three years until December 31st, 2022. As a part of the new agreements, firefighters would get a raise of about $1 an hour and police officers would see their wages increase about $2 an hour by the end of the contract depending on their experience and rank. Those collective bargaining agreements could go into closed session if needed. The Sturgeon Bay Common Council will also discuss if a spring primary is needed and an ordinance banning coal-tar sealant products when it meets immediately following the public works committee meeting, which begins at 6 p.m.
