<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Rutherford Beard (Complainant)
alleged that the Michigan Commission</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>for the Blind, the State
licensing agency (SLA), violated the Act and</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>implementing regulations in 34
CFR part 395. Specifically, Complainant</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>alleged that the SLA violated the
Act and its implementing regulations</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>and State rules and regulations
governing the Randolph-Sheppard Vending</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Facility Program with respect to
the closing of his vending facility at</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>the Lewis Cass Building for
renovation and plumbing repairs, resulting</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>in loss of income for the
Complainant's cafeteria.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Complainant further alleged that
the Lewis Cass Building Cafeteria</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>was not a suitable location
because the SLA was aware of a history of</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>plumbing problems in the
building. Consequently, when the cafeteria was</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>closed for renovation and
plumbing repairs, Complainant alleged that</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>this was proof of the lack of
suitability for a cafeteria at the Lewis</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Cass Building. Thus, the
Complainant requested reimbursement from the</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>SLA for loss of income during the
renovation period.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>The SLA argued that the Lewis
Cass Building Cafeteria was a</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>suitable vending location and
opportunity for a blind vendor. The SLA</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>acknowledged that, while it was
aware that the building had previous</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>plumbing problems, it was not
aware of the severity of the plumbing</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>issue. Also, the SLA alleged that
it had no responsibility to repair</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>the plumbing in the Lewis Cass
Building because the building was under</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>the jurisdiction of the State's
Department of Management and Budget.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>The SLA further alleged that
Complainant, as a small business operator,</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>had the responsibility for his
own profitability. Moreover, the SLA</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>alleged that Complainant was
unable to provide evidence showing the</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>amount of lost income during the
renovation period.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Complainant filed a request with
the SLA for lost income. The SLA</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>denied Complainant's request.
Subsequently, Complainant appealed this</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>decision with the SLA by filing a
request for a State fair hearing. A</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>hearing was held and the
administrative law judge (ALJ) recommended</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>that Complainant's claim be
denied. The SLA adopted the ALJ's</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>recommendation as a final
administrative agency action and</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Complainant's grievance was
denied.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Complainant then filed a request
for Federal arbitration with the</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Department. A hearing on this
matter was held on March 16, 2011. The</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>central issue, as determined by
the arbitration panel, was whether the</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>SLA's failure to compensate
Complainant for loss of income during the</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>renovation period of the Lewis
Cass Building Cafeteria violated the Act</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>and its implementing regulations,
and State rules and regulations</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>governing the Randolph-Sheppard
Vending Facility Program.</P>

<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Synopsis of the Arbitration Panel
Decision</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>After reviewing all of the
testimony and evidence, the majority of</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>the panel found that the Lewis
Cass Building Cafeteria was a suitable</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>opportunity for Complainant and
as such, Complainant was responsible</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>for routine building maintenance.
The panel majority concluded that,</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>although the SLA was aware of the
previous building plumbing problems,</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>the SLA had no authority to
repair the plumbing problems. Additionally,</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>the panel majority found that
Complainant did not provide competent</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>evidence to support his
allegation of lost income. Although Complainant</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>had anticipated larger profits
from operating a cafeteria at this</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>location, this grievance was not
substantiated by the evidence provided</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>to the panel. Thus, the panel
majority found that Complainant's</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>estimate of $70,000 for lost
profits was speculative and that it had no</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>basis to rule that Complainant
actually lost income or, if so, how much</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>income Complainant lost.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>One panel member concurred in
part and dissented in part. This</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>panel member concurred with the
panel majority's finding that there was</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>no evidence presented by
Complainant to support reimbursement by the</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>SLA for his alleged loss of
income during the renovation period of the</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>cafeteria. At the same time, this
panel member dissented from the panel</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>majority's findings, suggesting
that it was not reasonable to place the</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>entire burden of property-related
losses or damages on operators and</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>suggested that the SLA undertake
rulemaking to clarify such situations,</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>should they occur in the
future.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>The views and opinions expressed
