School board files suit on teacher union election By KAY WILKINS P.C Elizabethton Bureau ELIZABETHTON The Elizabethton Board of Education entered declaratory judgement proceedings in Circuit Court Friday requesting a decertification election to determine if teachers want to abolish their union. The board and the Elizabethton Education Association have been negotiating their first contract for several months. The proceedings Friday were the result of Thursday's meeting of the board when a petition, signed by 94 the EA's members, was presented to the board as an indication they do not desire continued representation by the EEA as their recognized bargaining organization. The board, in its complaint, pointed out when the EEA first requested recognition and.a special election was held, only 80 persons voted for representation, and 77 voted against representation by the EEA.
The board feels this was an insignificant majority. The board declared if a majority in tne negouating unit votes for decertification, then the EEA should no longer be recognized as the representative for the professional employees organization. In the negotiating unit, there are 169 employees eligible to participate. Leslie Gannoway, EEA president, told the board Thursday they will not participate in the election and will not. appoint member to the special election committee as is required by law.
Mrs. Gannoway has complained the board's agents are not negotiating in good faith. The board is also asking that a temporary restraining order be issued to prevent the EEA from attempting to hold further negotiations pending the decertification election results. A hearing on the restraining order is set for 10 a.m. Dec.
