non-neutral

to resolve the dispute that could not
01:51
had not been able to be resolved by the
01:53
city of san antonio with the
01:55
firefighters union we actually did that
01:57
arbitration here in the office
02:00
and uh
02:01
i guess the one thing both sides can say
02:03
is
02:04
that review dispute was finally resolved
02:06
and that’s that’s the good thing about
02:08
an arbitration sometimes but mediation
02:11
didn’t work they couldn’t negotiate it
02:12
to an end and they had to bring that to
02:15
an end so
02:16
there was a lot of publicity about that
02:18
particular matter
