Janitors reach deal

Weekend talks between the Service Employees International Union Local 1877 and the Building Owners and Managers Association appear to have done the trick. L.A. Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa got into the discussions late last week. At issue were higher wages and benefits and a two-tier pay system in which janitors in some buildings were paid more than others. Terms of the deal were to be outlined at a news conference this afternoon. (LABJ)
