Section 2. If the Union is not in agreement with the rate <br />of pay for the job, it can file a grievance at Step 3 of the <br />grievance procedure within thirty (30) days following the <br />termination of discussions concerning the rate of pay. If the <br />grievance is arbitrated,. the arbitrator shall have the authority <br />to recommend the proper rate of pay for the job or he shall <br />recommend placing the job within the rate of pay for that <br />classification. Any decision of the arbitrator shall be <br />submitted to the Council of the City of North Olmsted. The <br />Council shall have thirty (30) days to review said decision <br />within which time they may, by a two-thirds vote (or 5 votes) of <br />all members of Council, reject the arbitrator's recommendation. <br />If the Council fails to reject the recommendation by the required <br />vote, then the arbitrator's recommendation shall become final and <br />binding and the rate of pay shall be retroactive to the <br />commencement of discussions between the Union and the City in <br />accordance with this paragraph. Any rate and classification <br />agreed to by the City and the Union or recommended as provided <br />herein by an arbitrator and not rejected by Council shall become <br />part of the wage schedule to this Agreement. In the event the <br />Council rejects the arbitrator's recommendation, as herein before <br />provided, the initial procedure of this paragraph shall be <br />reinstituted until a recommendation is accepted or an agreement <br />is reached. The City shall not arbitrarily or capriciously <br />reclassify employees or change job descriptions during the life <br />of this Agreement. <br />- 24 - <br />
