CITY OF PASCO |
ORDER OF DISMISSAL |
Office and Professional Employees Union, Local 11, (AFL-CIO) has previously been certified as exclusive bargaining representative of a bargaining unit of full-time and regular part-time office and clerical employees of the City of Pasco, including those employed at the Pasco/Franklin County Senior Center. See: City of Pasco, Decision 2088 (PECB, 1984).
On August 8, 1985, Imogen Shick filed a petition for clarification of existing bargaining unit with the Public Employment Relations Commission. The petitioner therein states:
According to the attached Technical Proposal and Specific Provisions, Part C of the contract written by Area Agency on Aging in Yakima, the City of Pasco contracts for a Community Service and I am an enrollee in the program providing said Community Service and also the City of Pasco negotiates with the Area Agency on Aging on the amount of my salary and it is governed by the amount of monies designated by Area Agency and not entirely by the City of Pasco I feel it is not appropriate for me to be includes (sic) in the union.
Accordingly, the petitioner seeks to have herself removed from the bargaining unit described above.
Unit clarification proceedings are conducted before the Public Employment Relations Commission pursuant to Chapter 391-35 WAC. WAC 391-35-010 states:
WAC 391-35-010 PETITION FOR CLARIFICATION OF AN EXISTING BARGAINING UNIT - WHO MAY FILE.
