Read the jaw-dropping agreements below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Negotiations have stalled regarding long expired Brigantine public safety contracts. In the past,&nbsp;Mayor Guenther has denied allegations that both he and city council don&#8217;t want to upset this influential portion of Brigantine&#8217;s small voting block. Councilman Simpson and City Manager Stinson have also been tight-lipped about negotiations. Still no word from Brigantine firefighter union leader: Captain Tiger Platt of Absecon, NJ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p><strong>Watch Mayor appointed City Manager; Ed Stinson. Will he get new but very expensive contracts signed soon?<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>According to a group of local residents who examine city expense and contract documents, total compensation for many public safety employees could reach well over $200k+ when pension, health & overtime are added to the $100k+ salaries. Some employee compensation could be much higher than that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Recent findings show that one particular Brigantine Fire Department captain received $33,000 in overtime pay in 2014.<\/strong> When you add that to his salary of $130,000, health care of approx $30,000, pension and longevity pay&#8230;.the total cost that taxpayers handle&#8230;..of that ONE Brigantine employee, is well over $200,000 per year. You can see why FD union leader; Tiger Platt, Mayor Guenther and City Manager Stinson are in no hurry to sign new contracts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>With public safety unions in Atlantic City giving back in good faith,<\/strong> facing layoffs, reduced wages & benefits&#8230;as well as working even harder in a VERY busy town like Atlantic City&#8230;. some wonder why Brigantine public safety employees don&#8217;t follow AC&#8217;s lead in order to help the local community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>More OPRA requests for total 2014 compensation info are in process.<\/strong> Note: Brigantine City employee wages, overtime and benefits (medical and pension) account for approximately 65 percent of the municipal budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>See Firefighter contract here<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/bb-nj.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/Firefighters-Contract1.pdf\">http:\/\/bb-nj.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/Firefighters-Contract1.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>See Police contract here<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/bb-nj.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/PBA-Contract-2009-20121.pdf\">http:\/\/bb-nj.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/PBA-Contract-2009-20121.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>WATCH VIDEO:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe src=\"\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/98949077?title=0&byline=0&portrait=0\" width=\"500\" height=\"378\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p>See background from Press of AC <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pressofatlanticcity.com\/news\/breaking\/brigantine-seeks-to-slow-annual-raises-for-police-firefighters\/article_e4f9cf3e-ccbf-56db-a994-c571b0871bc9.html\">http:\/\/www.pressofatlanticcity.com\/news\/breaking\/brigantine-seeks-to-slow-annual-raises-for-police-firefighters\/article_e4f9cf3e-ccbf-56db-a994-c571b0871bc9.html<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wonder why Police, Fire, and Teachers contract negotiations are stalled?
