A union representing fire rescue personnel in Coral Gables says contract talks with the city are headed toward arbitration after not budging for more than two years. Coral Gables Professional Firefighters Association Local 1210, which boasts more than 140 members, says negotiations have been underway since the height of the pandemic in September 2020. Without 'any tangible offers' from the city to address the recent growth and further expansion expected to come in the next several years, the two parties have reached an impasse.
