Board, 4 unions to talk ANNE ARUNDEL EDUCATION
Contracts for all four unions are open this year. The unions are the Teachers Association of Anne Arundel County (TAAAC); the Association of Educational Leaders, which represents principals and administrators; the Secretaries and Assistants Association of Anne Arundel County; and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, representing blue-collar workers.
Last year, negotiations with the unions were not resolved until April. For the second year in a row, none of the four unions received a cost-of-living adjustment.
A new round of state budget cuts may make it difficult for unions to receive pay increases. But TAAAC President Thomas J. Paolino said he doubted teachers would agree to forgo a pay increase for a third year.
