 33-1274. mediation -- establishment of compensation terms upon failure to agree. (1) In the event the parties in negotiations are not able to come to an agreement upon compensation for professional employees by May 10, if agreed to by both parties, a mediator may be appointed. The issue or issues in dispute shall be submitted to mediation in an effort to induce the representatives of the board of trustees and the local education organization to resolve the conflict. The procedure for appointment of and compensation for the mediator shall be determined by both parties. Mediation is nonbinding, and the recommendation or recommendations of the mediator, if any, shall not be construed as having any force or effect.
(2)  If no agreement regarding compensation has been reached by the parties on or before June 10, the board of trustees, at a meeting held no later than June 22, shall establish compensation for professional employees for the ensuing school year as it deems appropriate. Provided however, that such compensation shall reflect the last best good faith offer proposed by the board during negotiations.
(3)  If the board of trustees establishes compensation pursuant to subsection (2) of this section, no hearing need be held by the board.
(4)  The dates of June 10 and June 22 are not arbitrary or discretionary dates that may be modified by agreement of the parties. The only instance in which the days may be extended is if June 10 or June 22 fall on a Sunday. In such situation the board of trustees may, at its discretion, extend these days to June 11 or June 23.
