MINNEAPOLIS — After another round of unsuccessful negotiations, Minneapolis Parks workers could soon begin a strike.
LIUNA Local 363, the union representing the workers, confirmed it filed a 10-day strike notice after Thursday's negotiations ended without a resolution, according to a spokesperson.
More than 200 parks employees are represented by the union, which said 94% of Tuesday's ballots were in favor of authorizing a strike.
"Our members have reached a breaking point after years of disrespect and neglect from the Park Board. Despite our endless hard work, skill, and dedication that makes Minneapolis’ parks the best in the nation, management continues to treat us with contempt," said the union's business manager AJ Lange in a statement.
This is a developing story and will be updated as more information becomes available.
