ABQ Labor Board -- First Meeting in 16 Months Mostly a No-Go

Today Albuquerque's Labor Management Relations Board was scheduled to meet for the first time since December 2009.  The two sitting members--Justin Lesky, Esq., the labor representative, and Barbara Stephenson, the management representative--did convene the meeting.  However, under the Labor Board's Rules, all three members are required for a quorum, so it could not take any action today, although everyone present was allowed to speak--and speak they did, largely to vent quite a bit of simmering frustration.
