Resolution 08251285
CITY OF ALAMEDA RESOLUTION NO. 3251
REQUESTING ENACTION OF STATE LEGISLATION REQUIRING MANDATORY
BINDING ARBITRATION IN LABOR DISPUTES FOR PUBLICLY-OWNED
TRANSIT SYSTEMS
WHEREAS, the long interruption of service by the Alameda-Contra Costa County Transit
Cistrict due to labor-management dispute has caused great and in this Council's opinion, unnecessary
hardship upon the patrons and riders of said public transportation system, which hardship ought to
be avoided in the future.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY CF ALAMEDA that the negotiators
for both the Alameda-Contra Costa County Transit District and the Amalgamated Transit Union Division
192 are hereby encouraged to enter into continuous negotiation of the issues until those issues
have been settled by mutual agreement.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the City Council hereby supports the passage of League of
California Cities-sponsored SB 2133 as it would provide the most equitable method of resolving
such public sector labor-management disputes; and that failing mutual settlement of such public
trarsit disputes or the adoption of SB 2133, the state legislature is requested to enact appropriate
statutes which will require said District and all public transit systems, and its employees, to
enter into compulsory and binding arbitration for the settlement of labor-management disputes.
