Involving certain employees of:

City of mount vernon

CASE 136304-E-23

DECISION 13663-A - PECB

FINAL CERTIFICATION

Paul Marvy, Projects Administrator, for PROTEC17.

John A. Henry, Attorney at Law, Summit Law Group PLLC, for the City of Mount Vernon.

On March 13, 2023, PROTEC17 filed a petition to represent certain employees of the City of Mount Vernon. 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 PROTEC17 was entitled to certification and the eligibility issues did not affect the outcome of the card check. PERC issued an interim certification in City of Mount Vernon, Decision 13663 (PECB, 2023) 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.                  This will stand as the final certification in this representation proceeding and the bargaining unit description will be modified as follows:

All full-time and regular part-time nonsupervisory employees working for the City of Mount Vernon Development Services department and including the Parking Enforcement Officer, excluding supervisors, confidential employees, and all other employees.

2.                  The above-captioned matter is CLOSED.

ISSUED at Olympia, Washington, this  15th  day of September, 2023.
