Arbitration Tribunal. Both the Union and the District may designate up to two (2) grievances each per school year for submission to an arbitration tribunal. Upon written mutual agreement of the Union and the District, additional grievances may be submitted to an arbitration tribunal. An individual or a panel of individuals not to exceed three (3) in number, has the authority to render judgment about a grievance. Any person or panel so agreed upon can be given the authority to render a decision as binding as that of binding arbitration. The conditions of the presentation shall be mutually agreed to by the Union and the District, and it shall be done within the same time frames as expedited binding arbitration, as prescribed in this Agreement. If there is a panel, it is necessary that two (2) of the three (3) individuals comprising the panel come to agreement on the disposition of the grievance. The Union and the District agree this step is a form of binding arbitration and the final step of the grievance procedure if it is chosen.
