Contract negotiations stall between Topeka police union and city

The Fraternal Order Of Police and the city of Topeka are in a deadlock over contract negotiations, the union announced Tuesday. In a release, the union said the two sides had started to meet in February and sessions were expected to end May 27. The union said it agreed to extend negotiations through June 9 at the city’s request, but issues couldn’t be resolved. The Topeka Police Department is facing “an alarming staffing shortfall” with an unusually high number of resignations and retirements, according to the union.
