Strikes And Impasse Resolution In Public Employment, Arvid Anderson

Michigan Law Review

Experience indicates that in most instances the right to strike is not an essential part of the public employment collective bargaining process.18 Thus, the crucial issue is not really whether strikes should be permitted or prohibited in the public sector, but whether the collective bargaining process itself can be made so effective absent the right to strike that the need for work stoppages will be obviated. It is my conclusion that certain proven impasse resolution procedures--mediation, fact-finding, and in some cases, even arbitration--can be substituted for the strike weapon in public employment without substantial loss in the effectiveness of collective …

The Evolution Of A Collective Bargaining Relationship In Public Education: New York City's Changing Seven-Year History, Ida Klaus

Michigan Law Review

The bargaining relationship between the New York City Board of Education and its teachers had its roots in the social forces of the mid-fifties and its formal origins in the events of the early sixties. The relationship came about without benefit of law or executive policy. No law permitting public employees to bargain collectively was in effect anywhere in those years, and Mayor Wagner's 1958 Executive Order-the culmination of three years of study and public inquiry-did not apply to teachers. Instead, the impetus came directly from the persistent and increasingly powerful drive of the teachers themselves. They demanded a substantial …

The Coming Revolution In Public School Management, Donald H. Wollett

Michigan Law Review

Dr. James Conant has commented on ·what he views as "concurrent educational revolutions"-changes in methods of instruction, in curriculum emphasis, and in public school financing-which portend radical revision in the methods of determining educational policy. However, thus far neither Dr. Conant nor any other observer of similar stature has addressed himself seriously to a fourth educational revolution-in-the-making: the direct involvement of teachers, through structured collective negotiations, in the management of public elementary and secondary school systems. This Article will focus on that coming revolution.

Constraints On Local Governments In Public Employee Bargaining, Charles M. Rehmus

Michigan Law Review

It is to the basic financial and administrative constraints upon the powers of local governing units that this Article is primarily directed. The examples used are taken largely from Michigan experience and Michigan law. The same limitations upon the financial and administrative powers of local government, however, exist in almost all other states. The Michigan experience with public administration and public employee bargaining should provide both a warning and a guide to other states as they cope with the so-called public employee revolution.

Housing Codes, Building Demolition, And Just Compensation: A Rationale For The Exercise Of Public Powers Over Slum Housing, Daniel R. Mandelker

Michigan Law Review

In programs of housing improvement and slum clearance, public agencies must often make difficult choices between the exercise of public powers of land acquisition, which require the payment of compensation, and public powers of noncompensatory regulation, which require no payment of compensation. This Article focuses on three of these programs-building demolition, urban renewal, and housing code enforcement. Public agencies may demolish slum dwellings, one at a time, without compensation. Title to the cleared site is not affected and remains in the owner after the building has been demolished. Under statutory powers of urban renewal, local public agencies may designate entire …

The University Of Michigan: Its Legal Profile, William B. Cudlip

Michigan Legal Studies Series

Inspiration for the preparation of this volume came from reading two sections of Volume I of the four-volumes published in 1942 entitled, The University of Michigan-An Encyclopedic Survey. One section by E. Blythe Stason, Dean Emeritus of the University's Law School, is captioned "The Constitutional Status of the University of Michigan." The other section captioned "The Organization, Powers and Personnel of the Board of Regents" was prepared by the Dean and the late Wilfred B. Shaw, long connected with the University in important administrative capacities and intimately acquainted with its history.

Reapportionment--Legislative Bodies--Significant Deviation From Standard Of Substantial Population Equality Of State Legislative Districts Is Permissible To Provide Representatives For Two Island Counties--Vigneault V. Secretary Of The Commonwealth, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

Since Baker v. Carr, when the Supreme Court overruled a long line of earlier decisions and concluded that the relationship of the equal protection clause to a state's power to create geographical districts for legislative representation was a justiciable issue, state apportionment plans have come under increasing judicial scrutiny. In Gray v. Sanders, the Court held invalid a Georgia primary election plan which favored voters from rural areas. Although Gray dealt with the dilution of individual voting rights rather than legislative reapportionment, it is important as the first enunciation of the now-famous "one man-one vote" test. Specifically, the …

The Effect Of A Large Reservoir On Local Government Revenue And Expenditure, Clyde T. Bates

KWRRI Research Reports

Development of a large multi-purpose reservoir within the area of their jurisdiction may affect property ta.x revenue and expenditure of county governments and school districts. Privately owned land sold to a federally sponsored reservoir is not subject to property taxes because of the doctrine of intergovernmental immunity. Local officials often assume that this loss of assessment will reduce their tax revenue and thereby their fiscal ability to provide an acceptable level of government services. They may also expect the influx of construction workers or the disruption of existing facilities to increase the cost of providing these services. The study approaches …

Public Employees' Right To Strike, Marc J. Bloch

Cleveland State Law Review

In a society which demands constantly increased services from its government, work stoppages in the public sector are cause for growing concern. Public employees are involved in myriad of service jobs. Yet, public employees are the largest group of employees in Ohio who lack basic labor rights.

Lawyers And Legislatures, John C. Mcdonald, James S. Turner

Cleveland State Law Review

Throughout its history, this nation and this state have had to depend in large part on the ability of its lawyers for effective legislative action. At a time when the State legislature is dealing with billions of dollars and millions of lives, it is even more crucial that the organized bar involve itself intimately in the daily legislative activities of Ohio. Lawyers working through the legislature have an important part to play in improving the lives of Ohioans.

Real Property Inventory And Management System For Municipal Law Departments, Jeffrey A. Rich

Cleveland State Law Review

Inventory management of city-owned real property may be defined as the recording and maintenance of information on the acquisition, identification, location, value, condition, and disposition of each parcel of such property, including the use of this property information for management decisions.Most cities own thousands or millions of dollars worth of real property. Few, however, have an accurate inventory and management system enabling them to identify and account for their holdings. Just as individuals and corporations want to know what they own in order to obtain a clear picture of their assets, a city must also maintain records to document its …
