Local 983 Rallies for More Parks Funding

Local 983 participated in a rally at Union Square on Tuesday, May 7, to demand that the Adams administration reverse budget cuts expected to hit the city's Parks Department hard. President Joe Puleo said the cuts, totaling some $55 million, must be restored to have enough workers to maintain the parks. Only 0.6% of the city's budget goes toward parks, according to Manhattan Borough President Mark Levine. At the rally, Puleo said, "Over 20 years ago we started this campaign for 1% for parks, and the mayor said he was for it. What did he give us instead? Cuts. We went from essential to disposable." Local 983 is continuing the fight with parks advocates to ensure proper funding.

Thank You For Electing Us Back Into Office

Thank all to all our members who voted in the recent Local 983 Election and returned us to office. Your overwhelming support is a sign that you have placed your trust in us and appreciate everything we have done for you while we’ve been in office. We also thank the Election Committee for their hard work and diligence in what was a long process.

This was the first election where members had multiple ways of voting — in person, online, and via telephone. It successfully allowed easier access for members outside of midtown Manhattan to vote.

We have a lot of changes coming — all positive steps to make us even more accessible than we have been in the past. Last year, we redesigned and improved our website, implemented the Local 983 Union Strong Mobile App, and started utilizing an email blast system, all to keep you more aware of union news. Be sure you have signed up for everything so you stay in the know. You can do this all via our website at local983.com.

We are diligently working on settling all our contracts and making sure you get your raises soon. We are planning lunchtime meetings for members with Officers, more ways to reach your representatives, and emailing out monthly updates.

On behalf of my entire team, thank for you the overwhelming support you have shown us.
