This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there is no live prognosis. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.
Summary
Existing law authorizes the governing board of any school district, and, prior to the sale, lease, or rental of any excess real property, except rentals not exceeding 30 days, requires the governing board of any school district, to appoint a school district advisory committee to advise the governing board of the school district in the development of districtwide policies and procedures governing the use or disposition of school buildings or space in school buildings which is not needed for school purposes. Existing law requires a school district advisory committee to consist of at least 7 but not more than 11 members, as provided, and specifies the duties of a school district advisory committee. This bill would require the governing board of a school district to also appoint a school district advisory committee before closing a school within the school district to advise the governing board of the school district regarding the closure of the school. If a school district advisory committee is created to advise the governing board of a school district regarding the closure of a school, the bill also would require the appointment of a cross section of community members, including pupil representatives, who have an interest in, and who may be affected by, the school closure to the school district advisory committee. The bill would require a school district advisory committee created for that purpose to be involved in the factfinding necessary for an informal recommendation regarding the school closure, as specified. By imposing additional duties on the governing board of a school district, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to these statutory provisions.
