As soon as practicable thereafter, or as otherwise agreed to by the parties, an arbitrator shall hear the grievance. If, within three hundred sixty five (365) days of the request for arbitration, the County and ACLEM have not yet initially calendared the appeal with an arbitrator, the grievance is considered withdrawn and finally resolved. The arbitration hearing itself need not occur within the three hundred sixty five (365) day window.
