The resolution, introduced by Representative Concepcion and Senator Duff, seeks to confirm the reappointment of Michael R. Ricci from Guilford as a member of the State Department of Education Arbitration Panel. This position is designated for a neutral arbitrator, and the term is set to last until June 30, 2028, or until a successor is appointed and qualified, whichever period is longer.
The resolution has been referred to the Committee on Executive and Legislative Nominations for consideration. If approved, it will formalize Ricci's continued service on the arbitration panel, which plays a crucial role in resolving disputes within the education sector in the state.
