281—37.4(280) Resolution or recommendation of the mediation team. If mediation results in resolution of the complaint, no further action is necessary on the part of the director and the implementation of the mediation agreement will be left with the boards of directors of school districts and the authorities in charge of nonpublic schools. If no resolution is reached within 50 days of the start of the mediation process, the mediation team will make a recommendation to the director as to the best resolution of the complaint. Copies of this recommendation will be given to all affected member schools. The director will establish a time for a hearing on this recommendation within 45 days of the receipt of the mediation team’s recommendation. The director or director’s designee will conduct the hearing, at which time all affected parties will be given the opportunity to provide oral or written testimony or submit other evidence. The director or director’s designee reserves the right to establish time limits on appearances at the hearing.
