An employer shall not be in violation of this provision if the employer cannot reasonably provide alternate work hours for an employee or if the service of the elected official would necessitate the hiring of additional or replacement employees. All disputes concerning compliance with this section shall be resolved under the provisions of chapter 10 of this title.
