Step Four If the decision of the President/Superintendent is not satisfactory to the grievant or no decision is rendered, CRFO may, within fifteen days of receipt of the notification of the decision, submit a request for arbitration. The grievance, including but not limited to disputes over procedural or substantive arbitrability, shall then be submitted to an arbitrator for advisory determination.
9.4.4.1 Within five days of receiving the request for arbitration, CRFO and the District will first attempt to agree upon an arbitrator. If no agreement is reached, the parties shall request the State Conciliation Service to supply a panel of seven names of persons experienced in hearing grievances in public education. Each party will alternately strike a name until only one name remains. That person will be the arbitrator. The order of striking will be by lot. Upon mutual agreement, the list of arbitrators may be obtained from the American Arbitration Association.
9.4.4.2 CRFO and the District shall each bear their own costs associated with representation at any step in the grievance procedure, except for the costs of the arbitrator. CRFO and the District shall share equally the costs of the arbitrator’s fees and expenses and any costs for a court reporter and transcript.
9.4.4.3 As soon as possible after the arbitrator’s selection, the arbitrator shall conduct a hearing into the matter and render written findings of fact and conclusions on all the issues submitted. If the parties cannot agree upon a submission agreement, the arbitrator shall determine the issues by referring to the written grievance and the answers at each step. After the hearing both parties will have an opportunity to submit written briefs.
9.4.4.4 The arbitrator will have no power to alter, amend, add to, subtract from, or disregard any of the terms of this agreement but will recommend only if there has been a violation of this agreement. The arbitrator will be without power or authority to make any recommendation that requires the commission of an act prohibited by law or that violates the terms of this agreement.
9.4.4.5 The findings of fact and the recommendation of the arbitrator will be advisory to the Board of Trustees, which will make the final determination. Upon review of the record, if the Board of Trustees is unable to render a final determination on the record, the Board may reopen the record for the taking of additional evidence and may adopt its own written findings of fact and conclusions.
