Description
MATTHEWS, Justice. OPINION Appellants are the Public Safety Employees Association, a union of state troopers and fish and wildlife protection officers, and several individual union members who reside in bush housing owned by the state. Appellees are the state, which is the employer of the individual appellants, and officials involved in the administration of the bush housing program for state employees. PSEA and the state are parties to a collective bargaining agreement containing mandatory grievance - arbitration provisions. 1 In July of 1979, the State Department of Administration took control of the state's bush housing and reassessed rents in accordance with its housing regulations. Many PSEA members were faced with substantial rent increases as a result. Because of allegedly poor conditions in the rental units, 2 fifteen members refused to pay the increase, and four stopped paying rent altogether.
