    Chavez snub ruffles council By Rick Orlov, LA Daily news
    Members say union proposal disrespectful

    Under the proposed agreement, some 1,100 former members of another city employees union -- the Engineers and Architects Association -- who joined the IBEW said they preferred to use their floating holiday to take off time on Christmas Eve instead of the Chavez holiday.

    City Administrative Officer Bill Fujioka said the proposal was designed to bring the new IBEW members in line with other Department of Water and Power and city workers on the Chavez holiday.
