The Board exercised its discretion to resolve charging party’s repugnancy claim rather than remanding it to the ALJ, because doing so promotes administrative efficiency. (Alliance Judy Ivie Burton Technology Academy High School, et al (2022) PERB Decision No. 2809, pp. 23-24 [Board may exercise discretion to promote efficiency by resolving issues at Board level in the first instance]; PERB Reg. 32661, subd. (d) [where charging party files repugnancy claim, the Board itself “may, at any time, direct that the record be submitted to the Board itself for decision”].) (p. 7.)
