Dear Dr. Scheuerman:

This will confirm our mutual understanding that Section 38.3 of the Agreement means either party may demand reopened negotiations concerning parking fees for facilities/lots presently provided with charge as well as those presently provided without charge.

The parties acknowledge an obligation to participate in such negotiations pertaining to facilities/lots presently provided with charge at the appropriate level upon receipt of such demand. The Last Offer Binding Arbitration (LOBA) dispute resolution procedure referenced in Section 38.3 of the 1988-91 Agreement and discussed by the parties in these negotiations shall be applicable only to any such reopened negotiations pertaining to facilities/lots presently provided with charge.

Commencing July 1, 1994, the parties affirm an additional obligation to participate in such negotiations at the appropriate level upon receipt of such demand concerning parking fees for facilities/lots presently provided without charge.

Commencing July 1, 1994, the sole resolution procedure for disputes arising from negotiations reopened on or after July 1, 1994, whether pertaining to parking fees for facilities/lots then presently provided with or without charge, shall be by a mutually agreed upon interest arbitration procedure.

Please sign the enclosed copy of this letter and return it to me for my files.

Sincerely,
Linda Angello, Director
Governor's Office of Employee Relations
