EXHIBIT C (Continued) A statement that the employee organization has in its possession written proof, dated by the signer within six (6) months of the date upon which the petition is filed, to establish that a majority of the employees in the unit claimed to be appropriate have designated the employee organization to represent them in their employment relations with the City. Such written proof shall be made in such language and form as the Employee Relations Officer shall prescribe and shall be submitted for confirmation to the Employee Relations Officer to a mutually agreed upon disinterested third party. Notwithstanding the above, the Employee Relations Officer, in his sole discretion, may accept employee dues deduction authorization, using the payroll register for the period immediately preceding the date of filing of a Petition of Recognition, as proof of employee support for the petitioning organization, except that dues deduction authorizations for more than one employee organization for the account of any one employee shall not be considered as proof of employee support for any employee organization, unless it can otherwise be shown that the dues deduction for the petitioning organization is the only one which provides full membership rights and privileges, including the right to vote. A request that the Employee Relations Officer recognize the petitioning employee organization as the Recognized Employee Organization representing the employees in the unit(s) claimed to be appropriate for the purpose of meeting and conferring in good faith on all matters within the scope of representation.

The Employee Relations Officer may require additional information as required by this Resolution to be included in the Petition. The Employee Relations Officer shall give prompt written notice of the filing of a Petition to any recognized employee organization affected thereby.
