I'm no fan of back to work legislation, but unless the City Administration is ready to remove its demands for take-aways and concessions in the contract and reach a negotiated contract, wouldn't the back to work legislation also make binding arbitration mandatory?

What would the likely outcome of government mandated binding arbitration be for the workers?

Would it be the status quo contract? A lesser contract? More or less than the City's latest offer? Or even a better contract than could reasonably be expected to be negotiated?
