Fall Route - Assignment Procedure Clause Samples
The "Fall Route - Assignment Procedure" clause defines the process by which rights or obligations under an agreement may be transferred to another party in the event of a specific fallback scenario, such as a default or failure to perform. Typically, this clause outlines the steps required for assignment, including any necessary notifications, approvals, or conditions that must be met before the transfer is effective. For example, it may specify that the non-defaulting party can assign the contract to a third party if the original counterparty fails to meet its obligations. The core function of this clause is to provide a clear and orderly mechanism for reassigning contractual responsibilities, thereby minimizing disruption and ensuring continuity in the event of unforeseen issues.
Fall Route - Assignment Procedure. All routes, except those reserved for Driver Trainers, will be bid at least one (1) time each school year. Drivers are notified of their approximate bid time in advance by posting of the “Driver Seniority List”. The list has been divided into segments that are approximately one-hour each. If a one-hour segment finishes early, the bidding stops until the next posted time on the schedule. Bidding on all routes will be based on seniority. If the driver is unable to bid at the allotted time, they may fill out a Bid Proxy form, available from any Office Staff member. Bid Proxy Forms should be given to the OSEA representative who will be present during the bidding process. Department staff will not bid or present Bid Proxies for drivers who are not present during bidding. An OSEA Representative is the only person who can proxy bid for drivers not present during bidding. Drivers are allowed to review the available routes in the waiting area. The District will pay drivers, who are present at fall bidding, one (1) hour to annually bid a route. At bid time, each driver will have a five (5) minute time limit when it is his or her turn to bid. If a driver is absent and has not provided a proxy bid, the next senior driver will bid and the absent driver will be passed over until he/she is present to bid. Drivers that have the same date of hire will draw lots prior to their turn. All routes will be bid as posted, including bus assignment. All routes are subject to change at the discretion of the Transportation department. Drivers are given the choice to bid on regular or special needs routes. Special education routes require the driver to be special needs certified. After the driver has selected a route, the driver signs the bid cover sheet for the route selected. Drivers in the waiting area are notified as routes are selected and not available for bid. For the purpose of fall bidding, drivers are required to test drive their routes. They will be paid up to three (3) hours to do so. If the allotted time is insufficient, the driver may request additional time from his/her supervisor.
