On April 8, 2014, DC 37, CWA, and Local 237 submitted an agreement to be jointly certified as the bargaining representatives of the traffic enforcement unit. They stipulated, among other things, that bargaining for the unit will be negotiated by a twelve member negotiating committee consisting of representatives from each union and that any bargaining agreement reached would be ratified by all members of the unit. The City of New York did not oppose the unions’ request for joint certification. Pursuant to the powers vested in the Board of Certification by the New York City Collective Bargaining Law (New York City Administrative Code, Title 12, Chapter 3), it is hereby CERTIFIED, that the Communications Workers of America, District Council 37, AFSCME, and the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, Local 237 are the joint representatives for purposes of collective bargaining for the unit consisting of Traffic Enforcement Agent Levels I, II, III, and IV, Associate Traffic Enforcement Agent, Parking Control Specialist, and Associate Parking Control Specialist.
