CORRECTION In the Feb. 15 issue, an article about upcoming bargaining with the City of Portland incorrectly identified a union that is part of the city union coalition known as the District Council of Trade Unions (DCTU). The DCTU includes Painters Local 10, not Painters District Council 5 as reported. MARCH 1, 2013
