§ 3.70.185. EMS integration plan.

A.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this chapter, the EMS integration plan identified as Plan B-110 and presented to the assembly in public session on November 23, 1993, shall not be a subject of bargaining. Implementation of that plan shall not be modified or limited in any manner by application of this chapter. In the event of conflict between provisions of Plan B-110 and the fire and emergency medical services bargaining unit collective bargaining agreement, the provisions of Plan B-110 shall prevail. Should either the municipality or IAFF Local 1264 question the existence of a conflict between Plan B-110 and the collective bargaining agreement, the question shall be referred to a three-member panel consisting of two members of the EMS board, as designated by the board chairperson, and the assembly's fire/EMS consultant. The panel shall advise the parties in writing in a timely manner whether or not a conflict exists. Decisions of the panel may be appealed to the superior court of state.

B.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, contractual issues raised by Plan B-110, related to compensation for EMS services, may be opened for negotiations after July 17, 1995, at the request of the city or the IAFF. This is not a general opener but is limited to compensation issues arising as a result of Plan B-110.
