To U.A. Local Union 669 Members and Contractors
Brothers and Sisters,
Yesterday the ballots were counted and because of your commitment to save our pension we are still able to look to the Nasi Pension Plan as the pinnacle of the pension plans today. The numbers are not official yet but unofficially the measure passed by an 84% majority. We will bring you all the details as they become available.
I thank you and we should all thank one another for standing together to keep our Pension Plan safe from the adverse effects of the current difficult economic climate.
On June 1, 2009, it was confirmed that the amendment was ratified by majority vote of the members of the Union.
Accordingly, the following changes, as indicated below, will be effective July 1, 2009 and January 1, 2010 respectively:
Effective July 1, 2009:
Reduce the Health and Welfare contribution rate from $7.30/hour to $6.90/hour;
Reduce the RESA contribution from $.90/hour to $0.40/hour; and
Reduce the hourly wage rate in all areas by $0.50/hour.
Increase the contribution rate to the Pension Plan from $3.30 to $4.70/hour.
Effective January 1, 2010:
Increase the Health and Welfare contribution rate from $6.90/hour to $7.00/hour;
Increase the RESA contribution from $0.40/hour to $0.60/hour; and
Increase the contribution rate to the Pension Plan from $4.70 to $5.20/hour.
Thank you again for your commitment.
Sincerely,
John D. Bodine

Message of the Business Manager
A Second Invitation to Our Contractors
Last August in Ann Arbor, Michigan was the International Training Fund Seminar, Instructor training, graduation and Apprentice contest finals. This August is coming up quick. There was an incredible gathering of spirits in the uplift mode. Some of us were fortunate to reconnect with people who taught us in the past and still teach us. Speaking to some of our Contractors who expressed an interest in being more involved in observing and participating in this event gave me the push to say yes you should. Al, Mark, Aus, Russ, Gene, Steve, Frank, Vince, Walt, Greg, Sam and Ronnie; space will run out here in short order. You should come out and see this and see what we learn, see our Apprentices do their best in all trades. Come and watch these folks do the UA Olympics and come home with some positive that we will be proud to share with you. You will be welcomed and made proud. Be in touch before August 2009.
It was great seeing you at the Union Meetings, let’s all
Keep Putting 669 First!
