Involving certain employees of:

|
CASE 127560-E-15
DECISION 12458-A - PECB
ORDER CLOSING CASE |
Audrey B. Eide, General Counsel, for the Washington State Council of County and City Employees.
Peter A. Altman, Attorney at Law, Summit Law Group PLLC, for the City of Yelm.
On August 24, 2015, the Washington State Council of County and City Employees filed a representation petition with the Public Employment Relations Commission involving certain employees of the City of Yelm. As a result of preliminary processing of the petition, the Commission determined the question concerning representation and reserved the issues concerning the eligibility of certain employees for inclusion in the bargaining unit for a subsequent determination. The tally indicated that the Washington State Council of County and City Employees was entitled to certification in the matter and that the reserved eligibility issues were not of a sufficient number to affect the outcome of the proceedings.
An interim certification was issued in this matter, City of Yelm, Decision 12458 (PECB, 2015), for the bargaining unit described as:
All full-time and regular part-time employees of the City of Yelm, excluding supervisors, confidential employees, uniformed employees, employees in the Public Works Department, the City Administrator, the Human Resources Manager, and all other employees.
The proceeding was held open to resolve the eligibility disputes previously framed by the parties.
Prior to issuance of a decision on the eligibility issues, the parties resolved their differences. It therefore appears that all issues that could properly be addressed in this representation proceeding have been resolved and that no further proceedings are necessary.
ORDER
1. The interim certification issued in this matter will stand as the final certification in this representation proceeding.
2. The above-captioned matter is CLOSED.
Issued at Olympia, Washington, on the 17th day of March, 2016.
