What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill allows the school board president of a common, union high, or unified

school district to appoint a person to fill a vacancy on the school board if the

remaining school board members fail to fill the vacancy within 60 days.

Under current law, if a vacancy occurs on a school board of a common, union

high, or unified school district, the remaining school board members appoint a

person to fill the vacancy. This bill allows the school board president of one of these

school districts to appoint a person to fill a vacancy on the school board if the

remaining school board members do not fill the vacancy within 60 days of the date

on which the vacancy first occurs. A school board member appointed to fill a vacancy,

whether by remaining school board members or by a school board president, serves

until his or her successor is elected and takes office.
