District 	(District) 	filed exceptions with the 	Public 	Employment
Relations 	Board 	(PERB or Board) 	to a proposed decision of 	a 	PERB
administrative law judge 	(ALJ). 	In his decision, 	the ALJ held
that the District violated section 3543.5(a), 	(b) 	and 	(c) 	of the
Educational 	Employment Relations Act 	(EERA)1 when it 	refused a
request 	by 	the 	California 	School 	Employees Association and 	its
Channel 	City Chapter #289 	to negotiate 	the 	1995-96 	school
calendar.
The 	parties 	informed 	the 	Board by 	letter 	dated 	February 	7,
1996 	that 	they have 	satisfactorily 	resolved 	the matters 	at 	issue
1gERA 	is 	codified at Government 	Code 	section 3540 	et 	seq.	1EERA

in this 	case, 	and they request 	that 	the Board dismiss 	the
District's 	appeal 	and the ALJ's proposed decision. 	The Board
treats 	this 	as 	a 	request 	to withdraw the 	exceptions 	and vacate
the proposed decision. 	Having considered the 	request, 	the Board
concurs 	that 	it 	is 	in the best 	interests 	of 	the parties 	and is
consistent 	with the purposes 	of 	the 	EERA to grant 	the 	request.
ORDER
It 	is 	hereby ORDERED that 	the exceptions are withdrawn, 	the
proposed decision 	is VACATED, 	and the unfair practice 	charge and
complaint 	in Case No. 	LA-CE-3514 are DISMISSED.
Chairman 	Caffrey and Member Johnson 	joined 	in 	this 	Decision.
