The Woonsocket Budget Commission will discuss a bankruptcy protection agreement for retirees Monday at 5 p.m. in City Hall.
The memorandum of agreement promises 198 retirees concessions they've accepted will be honored in the event of a city bankruptcy. A vote on the memorandum was tabled by the City Council Monday.
Sara Rapport, attorney for the city and the Budget Commission, told council members the memorandum hinged on their approval, since the retirees consider them the body they will deal with when the Budget Commission is disbanded.
The Budget Commission Agenda also includes requests for a new library paraprofessional and library reader, a request from DPW Director Sheila McGauvran to award a bid for sanders, a request to fill two positions at the Police Department, and a request for one position at the Tax Assessor's office.
