Turtle Bay, union settle for now
KAHUKU - Union workers at a North Shore Oahu resort have reached a tentative contract agreement.
Details about the agreement won't be released until Local 5 members of the Turtle Bay Resort vote on Friday.
Union leaders and hotel management say they're pleased with the settlement.
More than 300 Local 5 members voted more than a week to allow the union to call for a strike.
The union says they have been working without a contract for more than two years while the resort owner moves forward with expansion plans.
Local 5 represents more than 10,000 workers in Hawaii's hospitality, health care and food service industries.
