BEFORE THE PUBLIC EMPLOYMENT RELATIONS COMMISSION
In the matter of the petition of: TEAMSTERS LOCAL 313 Involving certain employees of: PENINSULA METROPOLITAN PARK DISTRICT |
CASE 135246-E-22 DECISION 13579-A - PECB FINAL CERTIFICATION |
Brett Botts, Organizer, for Teamsters Local 313.
Rodney B. Younker, Attorney at Law, Summit Law Group PLLC, for the Peninsula Metropolitan Park District.
On June 30, 2022, Teamsters Local 313 filed a petition to represent certain employees of Peninsula Metropolitan Park District. After an investigation, the Public Employment Relations Commission (PERC) determined that a card check could be conducted and reserved the eligibility challenges for a subsequent determination. The tally indicated that Teamsters Local 313 was entitled to certification and the eligibility issues did not affect the outcome of the card check. PERC issued an interim certification in Peninsula Metropolitan Park District, Decision 13579 (PECB, 2022) and conducted further proceedings to resolve the eligibility challenges.
Prior to a ruling, the parties resolved their differences. PERC has reviewed the parties’ resolution and determined that the resulting bargaining unit is appropriate under the statute. No further proceedings are necessary.
ORDER
1. The interim certification will stand as the final certification in this representation proceeding for the bargaining unit described as follows:
All full-time employees of the Peninsula Metropolitan Park District in the following job classes: Lead Grounds Specialist, Grounds Specialist, and Facilities Specialist; excluding confidential employees, supervisors, managers, and all other employees.
2. The above-captioned matter is CLOSED.
ISSUED at Olympia, Washington, this 19th day of January, 2023.
