OPINION
GORDON W. SHUMAKER, Judge
Through his union, Law Enforcement Legal Services, Inc. (LELS), John R. Barlow filed a grievance as to the City of Brooklyn Center’s decision to terminate him and the matter was submitted to arbitration. The arbitrator reinstated Barlow and the city moved that the district court vacate the award. The district court denied the city’s motion. The city appeals, contending that the arbitrator’s award should be vacated based on the “public policy exception.” In the alternative, the city argues that the arbitrator exceeded his powers. We reverse and remand.
