Brookfield school board appeals SERB ruling to Trumbull court


Published: Thu, December 4, 2008 @ 6:26 p.m.

WARREN — The Brookfield school board has appealed a November ruling from the State Employment Relations Board that ordered the district to rescind actions it took in 2006 to reduce employee salaries and replace union jobs with nonunion positions.

The board filed the appeal in Trumbull County Common Pleas Court this week, saying the SERB order fails to comply with basic and accepted legal principles.

“The order, if enforced, would require the board to raise the salaries of all teachers in the district retroactive to July 1, 2006,” the suit said. “This holding alone would push the district over the precipice of fiscal emergency, where it now teeters,” the filing said.

The appeal was filed by David Millstone, an attorney for Squire, Sanders & Dempsey of Cleveland. The case is assigned to Judge Andrew Logan.

Unions cause more trouble than they are worth. The students are the ones who suffer from strikes. In the southern states the schools don't even have unions, and it is ILLEGAL for the teachers to strike. And guess where everyone is moving to? It sure isn't Brookfield. Good for you Brookfield. If the teachers don't like it they can find another job.
