Title:

Urging the Mayor, in light of the Pennsylvania Labor Relations Board's recent Order holding that Philadelphia's Fire Service Paramedics ("FSPs") do not belong in the same collective bargaining unit as firefighters, to direct all Administration officials to immediately halt ongoing and announced efforts to convert FSPs into non-represented employees, and to instead maintain the working conditions and benefits to which FSPs were entitled prior to the issuance of the Order, pending the resolution of this matter on appeal; and further authorizing Council to retain counsel to represent it in appeals and any related proceedings arising from the PLRB's Order, in order to support the position that FSPs are in fact fire personnel under Act 111 and should be entitled to remain in the uniformed Fire Department bargaining unit represented by the International Association of Fire Fighters, Local 22.
