Binding Arbitration vs Mandatory Mediation
On Tuesday, March 15th, the Mountain View City Council will once again be considering legislation that will have significant impact on our business community. We want to remind you that as a member of Chamber of Commerce Mountain View: You have a voice.
What your Chamber is doing
Your Chamber is currently working on drafting a position statement to be presented before City Council that best reflects the concerns and best interests of our membership and the economic development of the Mountain View community as a whole.
DEFINITION: Mandatory Mediation
Mandatory mediation is the process in which parties are required, by procedural rule, to attend mediation as a precondition to having their case heard in court.
DEFINITION: Binding Arbitration
Arbitration is a proceeding in which a dispute is resolved by an impartial adjudicator whose decision the parties to the dispute have agreed, or legislation has decreed, will be final and binding. There are limited rights of review and appeal of arbitration awards.
