A new pay proposal by Armagh, Banbridge and Craigavon Council could mean a long-running council workers' strike may end this week.
On Tuesday night councillors voted to agree an "incremental" pay rise which will now be considered by union leaders at Nipsa, Unite and GMB and which follows six weeks of industrial action by council staff.
The industrial action over better wages and conditions has resulted in piles of rubbish building up outside recycling centres and at people's homes. Other services and civil amenities have also been impacted.
