The budget request act, supplemental budget request act, budget amendment act, or reprogramming shall fully fund the settlement for the fiscal year to which it applies.
(2) At the same time the Mayor transmits a settlement, including any arbitration award, pursuant to paragraph (1) of this subsection, the Mayor shall also transmit a financial plan that includes proposed funding for both actual and annualization costs of settlements for future fiscal years contained in a multi-year compensation agreement.

“(c) Before the expiration of any existing negotiated agreement between the parties, the parties may agree to begin a thorough study of the compensation being paid to comparable occupational groups of employees in other jurisdictions in the Washington, D.C. Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area and the nation's 30 largest cities by population. The annual study may include hours of work, health benefits, and vacation time. The annual study may also include the current percentage change in the Consumer Price Index for the Washington Metropolitan Area published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, United States Department of Labor.”

“(2) The results of the annual study may be updated at any time by any party to the negotiation. Such updates shall constitute supplements to the annual study and shall be made public and utilized in the same manner as the annual study pursuant to paragraph (1) of this subsection.”
“(f)(1) Negotiations among the parties to existing contracts shall commence no later than 90 days before the expiration of the existing contracts. The failure of any party to begin negotiations by 90 days before the expiration of existing contracts, without the express written consent of all parties, shall constitute an automatic impasse. Any party may notify the Executive Director of the Public Employee Relations Board in writing of this automatic impasse. The Executive Director shall assist in the resolution of this automatic impasse by selecting an impartial person experienced in public sector disputes to serve as a mediator. If the mediator does not resolve the automatic impasse within 30 days, or any shorter period designated by the mediator, the Executor Director shall then appoint an impartial Board of Arbitration to investigate the labor-management issues involved in the dispute, conduct whatever hearings it deems necessary, and issue a written award to the parties with the object of achieving a prompt and fair settlement of the dispute. The award shall be issued within 20 days after the Board has been established. The award shall contain findings of fact and a statement of reasons. The award shall be final and binding upon the parties in the dispute.”
“(2) Negotiations shall continue among the parties until a settlement is reached or until 180 days after negotiations have commenced. If the parties have failed to reach settlement on any issues by the 180th day, then an automatic impasse may be declared by any party. The declaring party shall promptly notify the Executive Director of the Public Employee Relations Board in writing of an impasse. The Executive Director shall assist in the resolution of this declared automatic impasse by selecting an impartial person experienced in public sector disputes to serve as a mediator. If the mediator does not resolve the declared automatic impasse within 30 days, or any shorter period designated by the mediator, or before the automatic impasse date, the Executive Director, upon the request of any party, shall appoint an impartial Board of Arbitration to investigate the labor-management issues involved in the dispute, conduct whatever hearing it deems necessary, and issue a written award to the parties with the object of achieving a prompt and fair settlement of the dispute. The last best offer of each party shall be the basis for such automatic impasse arbitration. The award shall be issued within 45 days after the Board has been established. The award shall contain findings of fact and a statement of reasons. The award shall be final and binding upon the parties to the dispute.”
“(g) Multi-year compensation agreements are encouraged. No compensation agreement shall be for a period of less than 3 years. When multi-year agreements are negotiated, the annual negotiations for the years in which a new contract is not being negotiated shall be suspended.”

The timetable for the conduct and conclusion of such negotiations shall be that provided for in subsection (f) of this section.
