Employer’s failure to withdraw its request that PERB certify impasse after employee organization stated in writing that it wished to negotiate over successor collective bargaining agreement did not show the employer failed to participate in impasse procedures in good faith. Employer’s conduct did not indicate it lacked subjective intent to reach agreement but instead showed that it wanted to proceed with statutory impasse procedures as soon as possible.
