Time Limits Each party involved in a grievance shall act quickly so that the grievance may be resolved promptly. Every effort should be made to complete action within the time limits contained in the grievance procedure. However, with the mutual consent of the parties, the time limitation for any step may be extended.
Time Limitation The time limits established in the grievance procedures shall be followed by the parties and the aggrieved employee. If the time limit procedure is not followed by the Union or the aggrieved employee, the grievance shall be considered settled without precedent. If the time procedure is not followed by the Employer, the grievance shall automatically advance to the next step, but arbitration shall only be instituted upon timely written notice by the Union. The time limits established in the grievance and arbitration procedure may be extended by mutual agreement reduced to writing and signed by the parties.

The third member shall be selected by the first two (2) members within fifteen (15) days as follows: The parties shall notify the State Superintendent of Public Instruction that a fact finder is needed and request a list of five (5) potential fact finders. If no name is agreeable to both parties, a coin toss shall occur with the party winning the toss having the right to strike a name from the list. The parties will then continue alternately striking names off the list until only one (1) name remains. The remaining name shall be considered as the parties' selection as the third member and shall be the chairperson of the fact-finding committee. 5.3.2 The committee shall meet with the Board's designated representatives and with USPA's designated representatives for the purpose of fact finding. 5.3.3 Within five (5) days after the selection of a chairperson, the representatives of the parties shall meet to exchange written language on each item at impasse. The exchanged documents shall be furnished to the chairperson and other members of the committee. Each item being submitted to fact finding shall show the last position taken by each negotiating team. 5.3.4 The cost for the services of the fact-finding committee including per diem expenses, if any, and actual and necessary travel expenses shall be shared in the following manner: The Board shall assume the expenses of the representative selected by the Board, USPA shall assume the expenses of the representative selected by their organization, and the expenses of the third member shall be shared equally by the Board and USPA. 5.3.5 The fact-finding committee shall have authority to establish procedural rules, conduct investigations, and hold hearings during which each party shall be given an opportunity to present its case with supporting evidence. 5.3.6 All hearings by the fact-finding committee shall be conducted in closed session. 5.3.7 The chairperson shall convene the committee for fact finding. The committee shall meet with the representative of both parties and, within twenty (20) days after the fact-finding hearing, shall present its written recommendation to the Board and USPA. The report shall set forth findings of fact and recommendations on the issues submitted. 5.3.8 If either party decides it must reject one or more of the committee's recommendations, said party must, within seven (7) days after the committee has presented its recommendations, request a meeting of the representatives who have been negotiating for the Board and USPA. The parties shall meet within seven (7) days of the request, unless both parties deem it unnecessary. At such meeting, the parties shall exchange written statements expressing each party's rationale for rejecting each recommendation found unacceptable and shall attempt to clarify any remaining differences. The representatives shall then resume a good faith effort to resolve differences; provided, after fourteen (14) days after the exchange of written statements, as provided for by this section, either party may discontinue such effort.
