6 1 76 7/20 2% 1 PO 440 . a: 24 7/2,0 GREGORY A. WHITE Attorney At Law July 19, 1999 TOWN ADMINISTRATOR WIDMER TOWN OF ESTES PARK PO BOX 1200 ESTES PARK, CO 80517 I)ear Rich: You have requested that I review the material presented to the Town Board on July 13, 1999, from the Fraternal Order of Police. In researching this matter, I have conversed with Mr. David Broadwell, Staff Attorney for Colorado Municipal League, Tami Tanoue, General Counsel for CIRSA, and Dan Wilson, City Attorney for Grand Junction. The City of Grand Junction is presently involved in an election to amend the Grand Junction city charter to require arbitration concerning police matters including salary, shifts, and other working conditions. Based upon my conversations with the above individuals and a brief review of Colorado case and statutory law, it is my opinion that the Town of Estes Park is under no legal requirement to collectively bargain with any group of employees whether that group is organized or not. The National Labor Relation Act of 1935 is the federal legislation which requires collective bargaining with employee groups. However, this federal legislation exempts from the provisions of the Act, public employees. Also, the State of Colorado has not passed any legislation which requires collective bargaining by municipalities with any employee group. If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to give me a call. Xe!~y trubryours, ~ Gre~ryl.White / 6 CLAW/bf 1423West 29th St. (970) 667-5310 Loveland, CO 80538 Fax (970) 667-2527
