17determines it is appropriate; if the commission places in a collective bargaining unit
18frontline workers and municipal employees who are not frontline workers, the

20unit are frontline workers. The commission may not decide that any group of
21municipal employees constitutes an appropriate collective bargaining unit if the
22group includes both craft employees and noncraft employees unless a majority of the
23craft employees vote for inclusion in the unit. The commission shall place the
24professional employees who are assigned to perform any services at a charter school,
25as defined in s. 115.001 (1), in a separate collective bargaining unit from a unit that
