The school has withheld $10.000 of the final settlement until the problem is solved. Three alternatives were mentioned by the board. The school can take a cash settlement; it can demand an entirely new job, which would involve closing the union for some weeks and loss revenue or it can do some of both, to include needed spot repairs and a partial cash settlement.
