If this bill allows the provisions of the contract to stay in place during negotiations and one side is in favor of keeping the old contract while another is in favor of altering the contract, who do you think is the real winner here? If they want to keep it they just keep negotiations ongoing forever. There isn't a provision for a end date. I do believe it gives the balance of power to one side only and it should always lie in the hands to the city/town where the taxpayers are on the hook for such things. A negotiation by nature is give and take - compromise from both sides. Something lacking from the Warwick contract dispute.
