30.1 Complete Understanding

The Association and District acknowledge that during the negotiations which preceded this Agreement, the Association and District had the unlimited right and opportunity to make demands and proposals with respect to any subject or matter not removed by law from the area of collective negotiations and the understandings and agreements arrived at by the parties after the exercise of that right and opportunity are set forth in this Agreement. This Agreement shall constitute the full and complete commitments of both parties. The Association and the District mutually agree that for the life of the Agreement, neither party shall be obligated to negotiate collectively with respect to any subject or matter referred to in, or covered by, this Agreement, or with respect to any subject or matter not specifically referred to or covered in this Agreement, even though such subjects are matters that may not have been within the knowledge or contemplation of either or both of the parties at the time they negotiated and signed this Agreement, unless there is mutual agreement by both parties to reopen negotiations on those specific matters, except as otherwise specified in this Agreement.

30.2 Negotiations During Term

The above shall not be construed as a waiver by the Association of any right to negotiate over changes during the term of this Agreement on terms and conditions within the scope of representation. Any modification of this Agreement shall be in writing and attached to this Agreement.

30.3 Contract Management

The District and Association will schedule meetings for the purpose of discussing matters of mutual concern as they relate to the implementation of the Agreement and other matters of mutual importance. The Committee shall not supplant the grievance procedure or contract negotiations. Nothing shall preclude either party from having a resource person in attendance when relevant to the discussions.
