To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairperson; Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS it is the position of the County of Oakland that Act 312 of 1969, as amended, has
removed from the hands of public officials the right to negotiate with certain of their employees;
and
WHEREAS the Act binds public employers with wages, operating rules, and priorities
determined by a non-accountable third party; and '
WHEREAS abolishment of the Act does not seem realistic in view of the current political
climate.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the County of Oakland go on record as being in opposition
to Act 312 of 1969 as amended and recommends the following changes:
A. When an impasse is reached, allow the employer the right to agree to binding
arbitration. Should the employer not agree to arbitration, the union would then be permitted to
call a strike.

Commissioners Minutes Continued. December 6, 1979
B. Should the employer agree to binding arbitration, the following rules would apply:
1. Supervisory employees be exempted from collective bargaining and binding arbitra-
tion.
2. Limit retroactivity of awards so that they may be effective only at the beginning
of the next fiscal year, except where a new fiscal year had commenced since the initiation of
arbitration procedures. This would be reinstating the provisions of the law prior to the 1977
amendment on retroactivity.
3. Lirilit the number and the types of issues which can be arbitrated.
4. Require mediators to certify in writing that the parties have exhausted their
ability to compromise and an impasse exists.
5. Require the mediator to document the nature of the impasse and to allow this
information to be made public.
6. Require MERE to promulgate rules which would standardize procedures for holding
arbitration hearings and standardize the format for the written award.
7. Require MERE to publish all awards at state expense.
8. Require the state to pay all expenses incurred should the employer agree to
binding arbitration.
