Complaints Process The School shall establish and adhere to a process for resolving public complaints which shall include an opportunity for complainants to be heard. The final administrative appeal shall be heard by the School's Governing Board, except where the complaint pertains to a possible violation of any law or term under this Contract.

Sale Process If a Non-Economic Facility is marketed for sale in accordance with Section 5.02 and Manager receives an offer therefor which it wishes to accept on behalf of the relevant TRS and Owner, Manager shall give the relevant TRS prompt notice thereof, which notice shall include a copy of the offer and any other information reasonably requested by such TRS. If the relevant TRS, on behalf of the relevant Owner, shall fail to accept or reject such offer within seven (7) Business Days after receipt of such notice and other information from Manager, such offer shall be deemed to be accepted. If the offer is rejected by the relevant TRS on behalf of the relevant Owner, and if Manager elects to continue marketing the Non-Economic Facility by providing written notice to the relevant TRS within seven (7) days of such rejection and Manager does not obtain another offer within ninety (90) days that is accepted by the relevant TRS, the Non-Economic Facility shall be deemed to have been sold to the relevant TRS on the date, at the price and on such other terms contained in the offer. If a Non-Economic Facility is sold to a third party or deemed to have been sold to the relevant Owner pursuant to such offer, effective as of the date of sale or deemed sale: (i) the Management Agreement shall terminate with respect to such Non-Economic Facility; (ii) Aggregate Invested Capital shall be reduced by an amount equal to the net proceeds of sale after reduction for the costs and expenses of the relevant TRS, the relevant Owner and/or Manager (or, in the case of a deemed sale, the net proceeds of sale determined by reference to such offer, after reduction for any amounts actually expended and any amounts which would reasonably have been expected to have been expended if the sale had been consummated by the relevant TRS, the relevant Owner and/or Manager). If the reduction in Aggregate Invested Capital is less than the Invested Capital of the Non-Economic Facility sold or deemed to have been sold, the difference shall be proportionately reallocated to the Invested Capital of the remaining Facilities.
Due Process 3.2.1 No employee shall be disciplined (including warnings, reprimands, suspensions, reductions in rank, discharged, nonrenewed, terminated, or other actions that would adversely affect the employee) without just and sufficient cause. 3.2.2 First of all, in the event a disciplinary action is to be taken, the employee shall be advised in writing of the right to representation under this provision of the Agreement prior to the action being taken. 3.2.3 Secondly, when a request for such representation is made, no action shall be taken with respect to the employee until such representative of the Association is present, unless the employee has been given a reasonable period of time to arrange for such representation. 3.2.4 Thirdly, an employee shall be entitled to have present a representative of the Association during any disciplinary action or at any investigatory meeting that may lead to disciplinary action. 3.2.5 Further, the specific grounds forming the basis for disciplinary action will be made available to the employee and the Association in writing. 3.2.6 The District agrees to follow a policy of progressive discipline, so any disciplinary action taken against an employee shall be appropriate to the behavior which precipitates said action, which normally includes the following: 3.2.6.1 verbal warning 3.2.6.2 written reprimand 3.2.6.3 with nonrenewal or discharge as a final and last resort. This section shall not prevent an arbitrator from viewing the appropriateness of any particular disciplinary action based on all the circumstances. 3.2.7 Any complaint made against an employee will be promptly called to the attention of the employee. When charges of misconduct are made against an employee by any parent, student, or other person which results in an investigation; the principal will give written notice of the allegations to the employee within fifteen (15) working days of commencement of the investigation. Any investigation will include an opportunity for the employee to respond to all allegations lodged against the employee. When investigating such charges, the investigation materials and results will be maintained in the District files except in those instances when the employee is disciplined as a result of the investigation, then the letter of discipline will be placed in the personnel file. The employee will also be given written notice of the results of the investigation within fifteen (15) working days of completion of the investigation. 3.2.8 All rules and regulations governing employee activities and conduct shall be interpreted and applied uniformly throughout the District.
Grievance Process (a) Either party, with the agreement of the other party, may submit a grievance to Grievance Mediation at any time within ten (10) working days after the Employer’s decision has been rendered at the step prior to arbitration. Where the matter is so referred, the mediation process shall take place before the matter is referred to Arbitrator. (b) Grievance Mediation shall be scheduled within twenty (20) working days of the grievance being submitted to mediation, or longer period as agreed by the parties. (c) No matter may be submitted to Grievance Mediation which has not been properly carried through the grievance procedure, provided that the parties may extend the time limits fixed in the grievance procedure. (d) The parties shall agree on a mediator. (e) Proceedings before the Mediator shall be informal. Accordingly, the rules of evidence will not apply, no record of the proceedings shall be made and legal counsel shall not be used by either party, unless otherwise mutually agreed. (f) If possible, an agreed statement of facts will be provided to the Mediator, and if possible, in advance of the Grievance Mediation Conference. (g) The Mediator will have the authority to meet separately with either party. (h) If no settlement is reached within five (5) working days following Grievance Mediation, the parties are free to submit the matter to Arbitration in accordance with the provisions of the collective agreement. In the event that a grievance which has been mediated subsequently proceeds to arbitration, no person serving as the Mediator may serve as an Arbitrator, unless otherwise mutually agreed. Nothing said or done by the mediator may be referred to Arbitration. (i) The Union and Employer will share the cost of the Mediator, if any.
Approval Process Tenant shall notify Landlord whether it approves of the submitted working drawings within three business days after Landlord’s submission thereof. If Tenant disapproves of such working drawings, then Tenant shall notify Landlord thereof specifying in reasonable detail the reasons for such disapproval, in which case Landlord shall, within five business days after such notice, revise such working drawings in accordance with Tenant’s objections and submit the revised working drawings to Tenant for its review and approval. Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing whether it approves of the resubmitted working drawings within one business day after its receipt thereof. This process shall be repeated until the working drawings have been finally approved by Landlord and Tenant. If Tenant fails to notify Landlord that it disapproves of the initial working drawings within three business days (or, in the case of resubmitted working drawings, within one business day) after the submission thereof, then Tenant shall be deemed to have approved the working drawings in question. Any delay caused by Tenant’s unreasonable withholding of its consent or delay in giving its written approval as to such working drawings shall constitute a Tenant Delay Day (defined below). If the working drawings are not fully approved (or deemed approved) by both Landlord and Tenant by the 15th business day after the delivery of the initial draft thereof to Tenant, then each day after such time period that such working drawings are not fully approved (or deemed approved) by both Landlord and Tenant shall constitute a Tenant Delay Day.
