MEMBER BULLETIN
COAAA Separation MOU: What You Need to Know
CWA Local 4502 wants to ensure all COAAA members fully understand the payment provisions outlined in the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) covering the separation of COAAA employees effective December 31, 2025.
- Lump-Sum Payment – Guaranteed Based on Years of Service Every COAAA employee who remains employed through December 31, 2025 will receive a one-time lump-sum payment based on total years of City service. This payment is guaranteed even if you have zero PTO or sick leave balance at the end of 2025. These lump-sum payments are separate from and in addition to any terminal leave payouts you may receive.
- Less than 5 years: $2,000
- 5 to 9.9 years: $2,300
- 10 to 19.9 years: $2,900
- 20 to 29.9 years: $3,700
- 30+ years: $4,600
- Terminal Leave Pay {PTO, Sick, Comp Time, etc.) – All eligible terminal pay will be issued according to the current Collective Bargaining Agreement (Articles 11, 12, 13, 15, and 17). Employees may choose to receive PTO payout in three equal installments under Section 11.5 of the CBA. This option applies only to PTO.
- Payment Timing
- Lump-Sum Payment: Paid by January 8, 2026, unless you elect to deposit it into Deferred Compensation.
- Terminal Leave Pay: Paid by March 31, 2026, with PTO installments available if elected.
- These Are Separate Payments – You do not have to choose between your leave payout and the lump sum. You will receive both if eligible.
