Common use of EFFECT AND DURATION OF AGREEMENT Clause in Contracts

EFFECT AND DURATION OF AGREEMENT. 34.01 This Agreement shall, subject to compliance with the Administration Procedures Act, Chapter 120, Florida Statutes, and other applicable laws, supersede any rules, regulations or practices of the Board which shall be contrary to or inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement and shall be incorporated into and be considered part of the established policy of the Board. Any provisions herein inconsistent or in derogation of such laws or orders shall be null and void and of no force or effect. 34.02 The parties acknowledge that during the negotiations which resulted in this Agreement, each had the unlimited right and opportunity to make demands and proposals with respect to any subject or matter not removed by law in the area of collective bargaining and that the understandings and agreements arrived at by the parties after the exercise of that right and opportunity are set forth in this Agreement. 34.03 The Board agrees to post a copy of this Agreement and future amendments on the district’s web site within thirty-five (35) days of ratification by the parties. 34.04 This Agreement shall be effective as of July 1, 2022 and continue in full force and effect until June 30, 2025. During the term of this contract, annual re-openers shall consist of compensation, insurance, and no more than three (3) articles of each parties’ choice and shall be automatically extended from month to month, unless either party shall give notice to the other in writing of its desire to modify the terms thereof. Under the philosophy of making bargaining an on-going process and relationship, rather than a calendar related event, either side may bring any issue to the table at any time during the period of the contract with written notice to the other side of its desire to do so. Both parties agree to conduct discussions in such a manner so that the language for a successor Agreement can already be in place at the start of the school year. It is the intent of both parties to continue the solid professional relationship of mutual cooperation which has developed over the years.
