Memorandum of Understanding

  1. Snow Removal: The Custodial staff will be responsible for snow removal at the locations designated on the May 30, 2001 facilities list at start of the employee's shift, after the lunch break, and as assigned by the supervisor as conditions warrant. The union still needs to review the facilities list and verify with Randy Landsberg.

  5. The personnel policy manual will be updated to reflect both Service maintenance and Food Service employees on the South Bend campus.
