30 Dec Telluride, Mtn. Village & SM County: Joint Statement About Ongoing Negotiations!
Joint statement from Towns of Mountain Village and Telluride and San Miguel County regarding ski patrol & resort negotiations.
“There have been increasing calls for regional governments to use taxpayer funds to help bridge the financial gap between Telluride Ski Resort and the Telluride Ski Patrol union to end the strike. While the merits of this approach have been considered, the regional governments have consulted labor counsel and have been told that such contributions are prohibited under applicable labor laws.
Additionally, both parties have indicated they are not interested in third-party financial contributions to resolve this matter.
We recognize the strain and uncertainty this labor dispute places on local businesses, residents, employees, and guests. Staff and elected officials from the Town of Mountain Village, Town of Telluride and San Miguel County are monitoring the situation and remain prepared to respond as appropriate, while continuing to urge a speedy and amicable resolution to contract negotiations.”
