Task 2.2 Conduct Bicycle Safety Education
Bicycle safety education is particularly beneficial for older elementary and middle school students,who can travel further
than younger students and who may be trusted to get to school on their own.This age group can make decisions about
bicycling on low-traffic streets, if they are aware of the proper rules of the road and comfortable riding a bicycle while
being aware of their surroundings.
The last RTO grant cycle funded a fleet of 30 bicycles and trailer for TTSD schools,which the program will continue to use
to teach bicycle safety education.The student education component will include in-classroom lessons and on-bicycle`bike
rodeos'focused on upper elementary and middle school students.With assistance from The Street Trust andlor WashCo
Bikes,the SRTS Coordinator will continue to support Metzger ES and Fowler MS teachers deliver bicycle safety
education classes. SRTS Coordinator will also provide logistical support and start-up assistance for other TTSD schools
implementing in-school or after-school bicycle safety programs,with highest priority given to Title 1A schools.

will address common concerns parents may have.Trainings will also highlight specific SRTS activities,such as Walking
School Buses and Bike Trains, which can overcome parents'concerns about supervision,traffic safety,and stranger
danger,as well as smaller events that parents can organize to build on school-based events.
Outreach to parents will leverage the SRTS Champion program previously initiated to identify, support,and nurture
volunteers at participating schools.The program is designed to foster participation from multiple volunteers and to
facilitate Champion transitions as needed.
Deliverables
• Parent presentations at five to six schools each year
• Annual Breakfast of Safe Routes Champions

type, location,covering,and signage.This process will help TTSD and cities prioritize which schools should receive new
bike racks,or support future grant applications for funding bike parking improvements.
The SRTS Coordinator will be available to review development pre-applications or sidewalk and trails projects that may
impact school commutes.The Coordinator will support other staff in Community Development and Public Works in
evaluation of capital improvement projects for their impact on school travel.
Deliverables
• Sidewalk gap analysis for City of Tigard
• Bike rack inventory
• Review pre-applications
Task 6. Evaluation
The evaluation approach will conform to the National Center for SRTS (NG-SRTS)guidelines and will include the student
hand tallies,parent surveys, and participation tracking previously discussed.
Task 6.1 Collect Handl Tallies
The SRTS Coordinator will work with teachers at each school to administer the tallies to their classrooms in the spring of
each year of the program.Tally methodology will follow the NC-SRTS recommended data collection methods, and tallies
will be entered into the Data Center to be used by regional and statewide evaluation efforts.While the NC-SRTS
methodology requires tallies from two classrooms per grade per school,this effort will collect information from as many
classrooms as possible.
Deliverables
• Hand tally data from each school, using NC-SRTS data collection methods,entered into the Data Center

Task 6.2 Collect Parent Surveys
To comply with best practices and other evaluation efforts,the Tigard-Tualatin SRTS program will be evaluated using the
NC-SRTS parent/guardian surveys and following the approved NC-SRTS data collection methodology.A superior
Spanish language parent/guardian survey has been developed as part of Washington County's SRTS program,which can
be used by Tigard.
Parent surveys will be administered in spring 2020 to schools that are newly entering the program,and again in spring
2022 to compare with the previously-collected surveys to analyze before and after perceptions of the benefits of active
transportation and continuing barriers to walking and bicycling.
Deliverables
• Baseline parent surveys at new schools
• Follow up parent surveys at each school
Task 6.3 Track Participation
Because mode shift is a long-term goal that may take years to realize,the program will also track student and parent
participation in SRTS activities and events,to assess the number of people reached by the program and number of
events offered.Surveys or evaluation forms will be used to solicit success stories or ether feedback,which can be used to
gauge interest in and perceptions about the program.
The City will use a shared GoogleDoc or other simple online spreadsheet to easily track events and activities. Parent
Champions and others involved with implementing SRTS activities will be trained to update information as applicable.
Deliverables
• Catalogue of activities at each school,with dates, participation numbers
Task 6.4 Develop Evaluation Report
The data collected in the hand tallies, parent surveys, and participation numbers from school events will be combined with
narrative about successes to develop a one-page Report Card that summarizes the SRTS program at the school, as well
as a final Evaluation Report that summarizes the program's activities over the course of the grant.
The SRTS Coordinator will work with the schools to produce a summary report each year that displays evaluation results
in a visual and graphical format to promote the program within the community.The aforementioned data collection will be
combined into a report that will track program progress toward goals. Results will be presented for the overall program as
well as highlights at each school.The report will be a resource for educating the public about the benefits of SRTS in
Tigard and how the community as a whole profits from the programming.
The SRTS Coordinators, along with City of Tigard, City of Tualatin, and City of King City, school, and District staff,will be
invited to review and provide insights and feedback on the draft report.
Deliverables
• Yearly annual report
• Final Evaluation Report

UNIFIED PROTECTIVE ARRANGEMENT
For Application to Capital and Operating Assistance Projects
PURSUANT TO SECTION 5333(b) OF TITLE 49
OF THE U.S. CODE, CHAPTER 53
January 3, 2011
The following language shall be made part of the Department of Transportation's contract of assistance
with the Grantee, by reference;
The terms and conditions set forth below shall apply for the protection of the transportation related
employees In the transportation service area of the Project.As a precondition of the release of assistance
by the Grantee to any additional Recipient under the grant, the Grantee shall incorporate this
arrangement into the contract of assistance between the Grantee and the Recipient, by reference, binding
the Recipient to these arrangements.
These protective arrangements are intended for the benefit of transit employees in the service area of the
project, who are considered as third-party beneficiaries to the employee protective arrangements
incorporated by reference in the grant contract between the U.S. Department of Transportation and the
Grantee, and the parties to the contract so signify by executing that contract.Transit employees are also
third-party beneficiaries to the protective arrangements incorporated in subsequent contracts of
assistance, pursuant to the Department's certification, between the Grantee and any Recipient.
Employees may assert claims through their representative with respect to the protective arrangements
under this provision. This clause creates no independent cause of action against the United States
Government,
The term "service area,"as used herein, includes the geographic area over which the Project is operated
and the area whose population is served by the Project, including adjacent areas affected by the Project.
The term "Union," as used herein, refers to any labor organization representing employees providing
public transportation services in the service area of a Project assisted under the grant, including both
employees of the Recipient and employees of other public transportation providers. The term "Recipient,"
as used herein, shall refer to any employer(s) receiving transportation assistance under the grant. The
term "Grantee," as used herein, shall refer to the applicant for assistance; a Grantee which receives
assistance is also a Recipient.
(1) The Project shall be carried out in such a manner and upon such terms and conditions as will not
adversely affect employees of the Recipient and of any other surface public transportation provider in the
transportation service area of the Project. It shall be an obligation of the Recipient to assure that any
and all transportation services assisted by the Project are contracted for and operated in such a manner
that they do not impair the rights and interests of affected employees. The term "Project,"as used herein,
shall not be limited to the particular facility, service, or operation assisted by Federal funds, but shall
include any changes, whether organizational, operational, technological, or otherwise, which are a result
of the assistance provided. The phrase"as a result of the Project,"shall,when used in this arrangement,
include events related to the Project occurring in anticipation of, during, and subsequent to the Project
and any program of efficiencies or economies related thereto; provided, however, that volume rises and
falls of business, or changes in volume and character of employment brought about solely by causes
other than the Project(including any economies or efficiencies unrelated to the Project) are not within the
purview of this arrangement.
An employee covered by this arrangement, who is not dismissed, displaced or otherwise worsened in
his/her position with regard to employment as a result of the Project, but who is dismissed, displaced or
otherwise worsened solely because of the total or partial termination of the Project or exhaustion of

Project funding shall not be deemed eligible for a dismissal or displacement allowance within the meaning
of paragraphs(6)and (7)of this arrangement.
(2) Where employees of a Recipient are represented for collective bargaining purposes, all Project
services provided by that Recipient shall be provided under and in accordance with any collective
bargaining agreement applicable to such employees which is then in effect. This Arrangement does not
create any collective bargaining relationship where one does not already exist or between any Recipient
and the employees of another employer.Where the Recipient has no collective bargaining relationship
with the Unions representing employees in the service area,the Recipient will not take any action which
impairs or interferes with the rights, privileges, and benefits and/or the preservation or continuation of the
collective bargaining rights of such employees.
(3) All rights, privileges,and benefits(including pension rights and benefits)of employees covered by
this arrangement(including employees having already retired)under existing collective bargaining
agreements or otherwise, or under any revision or renewal thereof, shall be preserved and continued;
provided, however,that such rights, privileges and benefits which are not foreclosed from further
bargaining under applicable law or contract may be modified by collective bargaining and agreement by
the Recipient and the Union involved to substitute other rights, privileges and benefits. Unless otherwise
provided,nothing in this arrangement shall be deemed to restrict any rights the Reclpient may otherwise
have to direct the working forces and manage its business as it deems best, in accordance with the
applicable collective bargaining agreement.
(4) The collective bargaining rights of employees covered by this arrangement, including the right to
arbitrate labor disputes and to maintain union security and check off arrangements,as provided by
applicable laws,policies and/or existing collective bargaining agreements, shall be preserved and
continued. Provided, however,that this provision shall not be interpreted so as to require the Recipient to
retain any such rights which exist by virtue of a collective bargaining agreement after such agreement is
no longer in effect.
The Recipient agrees that It will bargain collectively with the Union or otherwise arrange for the
continuation of collective bargaining, and that it will enter into agreements with the Union or arrange for
such agreements to be entered into, relative to all subjects which are or may be proper subjects of
collective bargaining. If, at any time, applicable law or contracts permit or grant to employees covered by
this arrangement the right to utilize any economic measures, nothing in this arrangement shall be deemed
to foreclose the exercise of such right.
(5)(a) The Recipient shall provide to all affected employees sixty (60) days' notice of intended actions
which may result in displacements or dismissals or rearrangements of the working forces as a result of
the Project. In the case of employees represented by a Union, such notice shall be provided by certified
mail through their representatives, The notice shall contain a full and adequate statement of the
proposed changes, and an estimate of the number of employees affected by the intended changes, and
the number and classifications of any jobs within the jurisdiction and control of the Recipient, including
those in the employment of any entity bound by this arrangement pursuant to paragraph (21),available to
be filled by such affected employees.
(5)(b) The procedures of this subparagraph shall apply to cases where notices, provided under
subparagraph S (a), involve employees represented by a Union for collective bargaining purposes. At the
request of either the Recipient or the representatives of such employees, negotiations for the purposes of
reaching agreement with respect to the application of the terms and conditions of this arrangement shall
commence Immediately. These negotiations shall include determining the selection of forces from among
the mass transportation employees who may be affected as a result of the Project, to establish which
such employees shall be offered employment for which they are qualified or can be trained. If no

agreement is reached within twenty (20) days from the commencement of negotiations, any party to the
dispute may submit the matter to dispute settlement procedures in accordance with paragraph (15)of this
arrangement. Unless the parties otherwise mutually agree in writing, no change in operations, services,
facilities or equipment within the purview of this paragraph(5)shall occur until after either:
1) an agreement with respect to the application of the terms and conditions of this arrangement to the
intended change(s) is reached;
2) the decision has been rendered pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures in accordance with
paragraph (15)of this arrangement; or
3) an arbitrator selected pursuant to Paragraph (15) of this arrangement determines that the intended
change(s) may be instituted prior to the finalization of implementing arrangements.
(5)(c) In the event of a dispute as to whether an intended change within the purview of this paragraph(5)
may be instituted at the end of the 60-day notice period and before an implementing agreement is
reached or a final dispute resolution determination is rendered pursuant to subparagraph (b), any
involved party may immediately submit that issue to the dispute resolution process under paragraph (15)
of this arrangement. In any such dispute resolution procedure, the neutral shall rely upon the standards
and criteria utilized by the Surface Transportation Board (and its predecessor agency, the interstate
Commerce Commission) to address the "preconsummation" issue in cases involving employee
protections pursuant to 49 V.S.C. Section 11326 (or Its predecessor, Section 5(2)(0 of the Interstate
Commerce Act, as amended). If the Recipient demonstrates, as a threshold matter in any such dispute
resolution process, that the intended action is a trackage rights, lease proceeding or similar transaction,
and not a merger, acquisition, consolidation, or other similar transaction, the burden shall then shift to the
involved labor organization( s) to prove that under the standards and criteria referenced above, the
intended action should not be permitted to be instituted prior to the effective date of a negotiated or
arbitrated implementing agreement. If the Recipient fails to demonstrate that the intended action is a
trackage rights, lease proceeding, or similar transaction, it shall be the burden of the Recipient to prove
that under the standards and criteria referenced above, the intended action should be permitted to be
instituted prior to the effective date of a negotiated or arbitrated implementing agreement. For purposes
of any such dispute resolution procedure, the time period within which the parties are to respond to the
list of potential neutrals submitted by the American Arbitration Association shall be five (5) days, the
notice of hearing may be given orally or by facsimile, the hearing will be held promptly, and the award of
the neutral shall be rendered promptly and, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties, no later than
fourteen (14) days from the date of closing the hearings, with five (5) additional days if post hearing briefs
are submitted by either party. the intended change shall not be instituted during the pendency of any
dispute resolution proceedings under this subparagraph (c).
(5)(d) If an intended change within the purview of this paragraph (5) is instituted before an implementing
agreement is reached or a final decision is rendered pursuant to subparagraph (b), all employees affected
shall be kept financially whole, as if the noticed and implemented action has not taken place, from the
time they are affected until the effective date of an implementing agreement or final decision. This
protection shall be in addition to the protective period defined in paragraph (14) of this arrangement,
which period shall begin on the effective date of the implementing agreement or final dispute resolution
determination rendered pursuant to subparagraph (b).
An employee selecting, bidding on, or hired to fill any position established as a result of a noticed and
implemented action prior to the consummation of an implementing agreement or final dispute resolution
determination shall accumulate no benefits under this arrangement as a result thereof during that period
prior to the consummation of an implementing agreement or final decision pursuant to subparagraph(b).
(6)(a) Whenever an employee retained in service, recalled to service, or employed by the Recipient
pursuant to paragraphs (5), (7) (e), or (18) hereof is placed in a worse position with respect to

compensation as a result of the Project, the employee shall be considered a "displaced employee", and
shall be paid a monthly "displacement allowance" to be determined in accordance with this paragraph.
Said displacement allowance shall be paid to each displaced employee during the protective period SQ
long as the employee is unable, in the exercise of his/her seniority rights, to obtain a position producing
compensation equal to or exceeding the compensation the employee received in the position from which
the employee was displaced, adjusted to reflect subsequent general wage adjustments, including cost of
living adjustments where provided for,
(6)(b) The displacement allowance shall be a monthly allowance determined by computing the total
compensation received by the employee, Including vacation allowances and monthly compensation
guarantees, and his/her total time paid for during the last twelve (12) months in which the employee
performed compensated service more than fifty per centum of each such months, based upon the
employee's normal work schedule, immediately preceding the date of his/her displacement as a result of
the Project, and by dividing separately the total compensation and the total time paid for by twelve,
thereby producing the average monthly compensation and the average monthly lime paid for. Such
allowance shall be adjusted to reflect subsequent general wage adjustments, including cost of living
adjustments where provided for. If the displaced employee's compensation in his/her current position is
less in any month during his/her protective period than the aforesaid average compensation(adjusted to
reflect subsequent general wage adjustments, including cost of living adjustments where provided for),
the employee shall be paid the difference, less compensation for any time lost on account of voluntary
absences to the extent that the employee is not available for service equivalent to his/her average
monthly time, but the employee shall be compensated in addition thereto at the rate of the current
position for any time worked in excess of the average monthly time paid for. If a displaced employee fails
to exercise his/her seniority rights to secure another position to which the employee is entitled under the
then existing collective bargaining agreement, and which carries a wage rate and compensation
exceeding that of the position which the employee elects to retain, the employee shall thereafter be

(7)(b) An employee shall be regarded as deprived of employment and entitled to a dismissal allowance
when the position the employee holds is abolished as a result of the Project, or when the position the
employee holds is not abolished but the employee loses that position as a result of the exercise of
seniority rights by an employee whose position is abolished as a result of the Project or as a result of the
exercise of seniority rights by other employees brought about as a result of the Project, and the employee
is unable to obtain another position, either by the exercise of the employee's seniority rights, or through
the Recipient, in accordance with subparagraph (e). In the absence of proper notice followed by an

employment as a result of the Project shall be required to exercise his/her seniority rights to secure
another position in order to qualify for a dismissal allowance hereunder.
(7)(c) Each employee receiving a dismissal allowance shall keep the Recipient informed as to his/her
current address and the current name and address of any other person by whom the employee may be
regularly employed, or if the employee is self-employed.

abolished. If the position of an employee is abolished when the employee is absent from service, the
employee will be entitled to the dismissal allowance when the employee is available for service. The
employee temporarily filling said position at the time it was abolished will be given a dismissal allowance
on the basis of that position, until the regular employee is available for service, and thereafter shall revert
to the employee's previous status and will be given the protections of the agreement in said position, if
any are due him/her. ,
(7)(e) An employee receiving a dismissal allowance shall be subject to call to return to service by the
employee's former employer, after being notified in accordance with the terms of the then-existing
collective bargaining agreement. Prior to such call to return to work by his/her employer, the employee
may be required by the Recipient to accept reasonably comparable employment for which the employee
is physically and mentally qualified, or for which the employee can become qualified after a reasonable
training or retraining period, provided it does not require a change In residence or infringe upon the
employment rights of other employees under then-existing collective bargaining agreements.
(7)(f) When an employee who is receiving a dismissal allowance again commences employment in
accordance with subparagraph (e) above, said allowance shall cease while the employee is so
reemployed, and the period of time during which the employee is so reemployed shall be deducted from
the total period for which the employee is entitled to receive a dismissal allowance. During the time of
such reemployment, the employee shall be entitled to the protections of this arrangement to the extent
they are applicable.
(7)(g) The dismissal allowance of any employee who is otherwise employed shall be reduced to the
extent that the employee's combined monthly earnings from such other employment or self-employment,
any benefits received from any unemployment insurance law, and his/her dismissal allowance exceed
the amount upon which the employee's dismissal allowance is based. Such employee, or his/her union
representative, and the Recipient shall agree upon a procedure by which the Recipient shall be kept
currently informed of the earnings of such employee in employment other than with the employee's former
employer, including self-employment, and the benefits received.
(7)(h) The dismissal allowance shall cease prior to the expiration of the protective period in the event of
the failure of the employee without good cause to return to service in accordance with the applicable
labor agreement, or to accept employment as provided under subparagraph (e) above, or in the
event of the employee's resignation, death, retirement, or dismissal for cause in accordance with any
labor agreement applicable to his/her employment.

the initial changes as a result of the Project, which are not a result of the Project but grow out of the
normal exercise of seniority rights, shall not be considered within the purview of this paragraph.
(12)(a)The following conditions shall apply to the extent they are applicable in each instance to any
employee who is retained in the service of the employer(or who is later restored to service after being
entitled to receive a dismissal allowance),who is required to change the point of his/her employment as a

employee shall, at the employee's option, be reimbursed by the Recipient for any loss suffered in the sale
of the employee's home for less than its fair market value, plus conventional fees and closing costs,such
loss to be paid within thirty(30)days of settlement or closing on the sale of the home. In each case,the
fair market value of the home in question shall be determined, as of a date sufficiently prior to the date of

person and to reimburse the seller for his/her conventional fees and closing costs.
If the employee is under a contract to purchase his/her home,the Recipient shall protect the employee
against loss under such contract, and in addition, shall relieve the employee from any further obligation
there under.
If the employee holds an unexpired lease of a dwelling occupied as the employee's home,the Recipient
shall protect the employee from all loss and cost in securing the cancellation of said lease.
(12)(b) No claim for loss shall be paid under the provisions of this paragraph unless such claim is

from his/her residence than was the employee's former work location.
(13)(a) A dismissed employee entitled to protection under this arrangement may, at the employee's
option within twenty-one (21) days of his/her dismissal, resign and (in lieu of all other benefits and
protections provided in this arrangement) accept a lump sum payment computed in accordance with

3 years and less than 5 years 9 month's pay
5 ears and less than 10 years 12 month's pay
10 ears and less than 15 years 12 month's pay
15 Vears and over 12 month's pay
In the case of an employee with less than one year's service,five days' pay,computed by multiplying by 5
the normal daily earnings (including regularly scheduled overtime, but excluding other overtime
payments) received by the employee in the position last occupied, for each month in which the employee
performed service,will be paid as the lump sum.
Length of service shall be computed as provided in Section 7(b) of the Washington Job Protection
Agreement, as follows:
For the purposes of this arrangement,the length of service of the employee shall be determined from the
date the employee last acquired an employment status with the employing carrier and the employee shall
be given credit for one month's service For each month in which the employee performed any service (in
any capacity whatsoever) and twelve (12) such months shall be credited as one year's service. The
employment status of an employee shall not be interrupted by furlough in instances where the employee
has a right to and does return to service when called. In determining length of service of an employee
acting as an officer or other official representative of an employee organization, the employee will be
given credit for performing service while so engaged on leave of absence from the service of a carrier.
(13)(b) One month's pay shall be computed by multiplying by 30 the normal daily earnings (including
regularly scheduled overtime, but excluding other overtime payments) received by the employee in the
position fast occupied prior to time of the employee's dismissal as a result of the Project.
(14) Whenever used herein, unless the context requires otherwise, the terra "protective period" means
that period of time during which a displaced or dismissed employee is to be provided protection
hereunder and extends from the date on which an employee is displaced or dismissed to the expiration of
six(6) years there from, provided, however, that the protective period for any particular employee during
which the employee is entitled to receive the benefits of these provisions shall not continue for a longer
period following the date the employee was displaced or dismissed than the employee's length of service,
as shown by the records and labor agreements applicable to his/her employment prior to the date of the
employee's displacement or dismissal.

Recipient(s) and the Union(s), which cannot be settled by the parties thereto within thirty (30) days after
the dispute or controversy arises, may be submitted at the written request of the Recipient(s) or the
Union(s) in accordance with a final and binding resolution procedure mutually acceptable to the parties.
Failing agreement within ten (10) days on the selection of such a procedure, any party to the dispute may
request the American Arbitration Association to furnish an arbitrator and administer a final and binding
arbitration under its Labor Arbitration Rules. The parties further agree to accept the arbitrator's award as
final and binding.
The compensation and expenses of the neutral arbitrator, and any other jointly incurred expenses, shall
be borne equally by the Union(s) and Recipient(s), and all other expenses shall be paid by the party
incurring them.
In the event of any dispute as to whether or not a particular employee was affected by the Project, it shall
be the employee's obligation to identify the Project and specify the pertinent facts of the Project relied
upon. It shall then be the burden of the Recipient to prove that factors other than the Project affected the
employee. The claiming employee shall prevail if it is established that the Project had an effect upon the
employee even if other factors may also have affected the employee (See Hodgson's Affidavit in Civil
Action No. 825-71).
(16)The Recipient will be financially responsible for the application of these conditions and will make the
necessary arrangements so that any employee affected, as a result of the project, may file a written claim
through his/her Union representative with the Recipient within sixty(60) days of the date the employee is
terminated or laid off as a result of the Project, or within eighteen (18) months of the date the employee's
position with respect to his/her employment is otherwise worsened as a result of the Project. In the latter
case, if the events giving rise to the claim have occurred over an extended period,the 18-month limitation
shall be measured from the last such event. No benefits shall be payable for any period prior to six (6)
months from the date of the filing of any claim. Unless the claim is filed with the Recipient within said time
limitations,the Recipient shall thereafter be relieved of all liabilities and obligations related to the claims.
The Recipient will fully honor the claim, making appropriate payments, or will give written notice to the
claimant and his/her representative of the basis for denying or modifying such claim, giving reasons
therefore. In the event the Recipient fails to honor such claim, the Union may invoke the following
procedures for further joint investigation of the claim by giving notice in writing of its desire to pursue such
procedures. Within ten (10) days from the receipt of such notice, the parties shall exchange such factual
material as may be requested of them relevant to the disposition of the claim and shall jointly take such
steps as may be necessary or desirable to obtain from any third party such additional factual materials as
may be relevant. In the event the claim is so rejected by the Recipient, the claim may be processed in
accordance with the final and binding resolution procedures described in paragraph(15).
(17) Nothing in this arrangement shall be construed as depriving any employee of any rights or
benefits which such employee may have under existing employment or collective bargaining agreements
or otherwise; provided that there shall be no duplication of benefits to any employee, and,provided
further,that any benefit under this arrangement shall be construed to include the conditions,
responsibilities,and obligations accompanying such benefit, This arrangement shall not be deemed a
waiver of any rights derived from any other agreement or provision of federal, state or local law.
(18) During the employee's protective period, a dismissed employee shall, if the employee so
requests,in writing, be granted priority of employment or reemployment to fiil any vacant position within
the jurisdiction and control of the Recipient reasonably comparable to that which the employee held when
dismissed, including those in the employment of any entity bound by this arrangement pursuant to

such training or re-training at no cost to the employee, The employee shall be paid the salary or hourly
rate provided for in the applicable collective bargaining agreement for such position, plus any
displacement allowance to which the employee may be otherwise entitled_ If such dismissed employee
who has made such request fails, without good cause,within ten(10)days to accept an offer of a position
comparable to that which the employee held when dismissed for which the employee is qualified, or for
which the employee has satisfactorily completed such training,the employee shall,effective at the
expiration of such ten-day period,forfek all rights and benefits under this arrangement.
As between employees who request employment pursuant to this paragraph, the following order where
applicable shall prevail in hiring such employees:
(a) Employees in the craft or class of the vacancy shall be given priority over employees without
seniority in such craft or class;
(b) As between employees having seniority in the craft or class of the vacancy, the senior
employees,based upon their service in that craft or class, as shown on the appropriate seniority roster,
shall prevail over junior employees;
(c) As between employees not having seniority in the craft or class of the vacancy,the senior
employees, based upon their service in the crafts or classes in which they do have seniority as shown on
the appropriate seniority rosters,shall prevail over junior employees.

has received federal assistance under the Federal Transit statute and has agreed to comply with the
provisions of 49 U.S.C., Section 5333(b). This notice shall also specify the terms and conditions set forth
herein for the protection of employees. The Recipient shall maintain and keep on file all relevant books
and records in sufficient detail as to provide the basic information necessary to the proper application,
administration, and enforcement of this arrangement and to the proper determination of any claims arising
there under.
(20) In the event the Project is approved for assistance under the statute,the foregoing terms and
conditions shall be made part of the contract of assistance between the federal government and the
Grantee and between the Grantee and any Recipient; provided, however, that this arrangement shall not
merge into the contract of assistance,but shall be independently binding and enforceable by and upon
the parties thereto, and by any covered employee or his/her representative, in accordance with its terms,
nor shall any other employee protective agreement merge into this arrangement, but each shall be
