What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, school districts are classified as common, union high,

unified, and first class city school districts. Current law requires a common and

union high school district to hold an annual meeting, at which every elector of the

school district is eligible to vote. Certain powers may be exercised at the annual

meeting, one of which is the power to authorize the sale of school district property

that is no longer needed by the school district. Under the bill, the school board of a

common or union high school district has the power to sell school district property

that is no longer needed by the school district without authorization from an annual

meeting.
