Maintenance of membership provision will not bind employees unless it is part of an effective written agreement; p. 9. When maintenance of membership provision ceases to have effect, i.e., when contract no longer in effect or when effective contract is superceded by a new contract, EERA section 3540.1(i)(1) permits employees to terminate their membership for a period of thirty days; p. 10. Board declines to extend premature contract extension doctrine to cover EERA section 3540.1(i)(1) (maintenance of membership provisions), p. 7.
