BART management believes provision it did not agree to was inadvertently included in contract

BART management believes that a provision that it did not agree to was inadvertently included in the final labor package, which is scheduled to be considered by the BART Board next week. BART is currently costing out the impact of the provision. 

The BART Board will have to factor this item into its ratification decision next week at its meeting on Thursday, Nov. 21. 

For clarification, the purpose of a special Board meeting Friday, Nov. 15, at 3:30 pm, is to review in closed session all the tentative agreements that are a part of the labor contract. Public comment is allowed on the subject of the closed session only. The Board is scheduled to vote on the contract on Thursday, Nov. 21, 2013. 

You can find agendas in the Board agendas section.
