The City College of San Francisco Board of Trustees voted unanimously May 10 to approve an agreement to impose salary cuts in order to avert massive layoffs and the resulting class cuts at the educational institution.
The salary reductions were approved prior to the meeting by members of the American Federation of Teachers Local 2121, which had reached a tentative agreement with the college administration May 8.
According to a news release from the union hours before the board meeting, 82% of the members voted in favor of the pay cuts to avoid layoffs.
As the Bay Area Reporter reported last week, it was anticipated that the college's board would vote at its May 10 meeting on the budget matter.
