This Board has jurisdiction over the parties and subject matter of this dispute. The petition proposes an appropriate bargaining unit. This is the third time these parties have appeared before us concerning these part-time employees. The first occasion was a unit clarification petition filed by OSEA, seeking to add these positions to its existing bargaining unit of full-time employees. OSEA v. South Coast ESD , Case No.
