Auburn (NY) Council to Vote Again on EMT, Firefighter Contracts

AUBURN — The City Council on Thursday will, for a second time, vote on new contracts for emergency medical technicians and firefighters.

There were some tweaks to the agreement, however, the main provisions include 2% annual wage increases and employees will pay 25% of their health insurance premiums.
