Duluth may privatize its two public golf courses to resolve a union grievance, said John Hall, the city’s chief administrative officer. …… Ken Loeffler Kemp, a representative for American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, said the union opposes hiring a private firm to manage the golf courses because it could hire nonunion employees and pay them less than a city worker would earn.
