HARTZ, Judge (specially concurring). I concur in affirmance of the district court. I agree with Judge Flores’ opinion that Garcia failed to preserve at the personnel board hearing his contention on appeal that the collective bargaining agreement prevails over the terms of the county safety policy. There is no need to consider any of Garcia’s other contentions. As I read Garcia’s briefs on appeal to this court, all of the other contentions hinge on the contention that the collective bargaining agreement prevails over the safety policy. In particular, I do not think that Garcia’s briefs on appeal raise the issues discussed in the section of Judge Flores’ opinion entitled “Suspension, Transfer, and Reinstatement.”
