The Detroit Police Officers Association Wednesday reached a tentative agreement on a new labor contract with the city, union president Mark Diaz said.
The deal, which still needs to be voted on by members of the union, completes a smaller piece of the agreement reached in July on wages, benefits and other economic terms.
Diaz said he couldn’t comment on terms of the contract yet until meeting with union leadership.
“Reaching a tentative agreement with a bankrupt city has been incredibly difficult,” Diaz said.
