The Association will be notified of these proposed <br />accommodations prior to implementation by the City. <br /> <br />Any accommodation provided to an individual protected by the ADA shall not <br />establish a past practice in the grievance/arbitration procedure. <br /> <br />Prior to disregarding any provision of this MOU in order to undertake required <br />accommodations for an individual protected by the Act, the City will provide <br />the Association with written notice of its intent to disregard the provision and <br />will allow the Association the opportunity to discuss options to disregarding the <br />MOU. <br /> <br /> <br />SECTION 3 - ASSOCIATION SECURITY <br /> <br />3.1 Dues Deductions <br /> <br />The Association may have the regular dues of its members deducted from the <br />employees' paychecks; provided, however, that such dues deduction shall be <br />made only upon the written authorization of the individual employee. <br /> <br />Payroll deductions shall be for an amount specified by the Association and <br />uniform as between employee members of the Association, and shall not <br />include fines or fees. <br /> <br />Authorization, cancellation or modification of payroll deduction shall be made <br />upon forms provided by the City. The voluntary payroll deduction <br />authorization will remain in effect until employment with the City is <br />terminated or until canceled or modified by the employee by thirty (30) days <br />advance written notice to the City. <br /> <br />Amounts deducted and withheld by the City shall be transmitted to the officer <br />designated in writing by the Association as the person authorized to receive <br />such funds, at the address specified. <br /> <br />The employee's earnings must be sufficient, after all other required deductions <br />are made, to cover the amount of the deductions herein authorized.

In the case of an employee who is in a non-pay <br />status during a part of the pay period, and the salary is not sufficient to cover <br />the full withholding, no deduction shall be made. In this connection, all <br />required deductions have priority over the Association deduction. <br /> <br />The Association hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the City harmless <br />against any claim made and against any suit initiated against the City on <br />account of check off of Association dues.
