Local agency rule requiring showing of majority support for unit severance among employees in proposed new unit was reasonable even though PERB’s corresponding regulation only requires a showing of 30% support. Similar to PERB regulations governing unit severance under EERA, HEERA and the Dills Act, the majority support requirement was not a precursor to an election but determinative of whether the petition would be granted.
