Financial Impact:
There is no financial impact associated with this appointment.
Background Information:
Staff is requesting consideration of a possible resolution to be brought before the Board at a later date to appoint the Chief Administrator as the designated negotiator for all unrepresented employees unless their positions are otherwise associated with an established bargaining unit.
