Another legal action has been filed relating to certain employees’ inclusion in the Boulder County Employees Union in a move some employees and union representatives have characterized as union busting. Boulder County Public Health (BCPH) and Boulder County Housing Authority (BCHA) filed a motion last month seeking to pause bargaining, scheduled to begin May 19, with the Boulder County Employees Union, which formed in January. The county has argued that those employees are not subject to COBCA, the state law that allows county employees to unionize, and that CDLE’s decision is based on a “misinterpretation of how the county is structured.”The latest filing seeks to delay negotiations until the previous appeal is decided. Dozens of county employees attended the commissioners’ May 1 public comment session, urging commissioners to drop the legal action. Boulder County provides 29% of BCPH’s budget, county spokesperson Gloria Handyside wrote in an email to Boulder Weekly; the rest comes from “multiple sources,” including state, federal and private funding.
