What’s in it
AI summary When voters approve a plan to dissolve a school district, the land from that district will move to a new area at a different time. Instead of happening the very next July, the change will now take place in July of the following year. This new rule applies to any dissolution votes that happen after this law starts.1
Read the official explanation
This bill relates to the attachment of the territory of a school district that is subject to an approved dissolution proposal. Current law provides that the attachment of territory of a school district that is subject to an approved dissolution proposal is effective July following such approval. The bill modifies this provision to provide that such attachment is effective July in the calendar year immediately subsequent to the calendar year in which the attachment was approved. The bill applies to school district dissolution propositions that are approved by voters on or after the effective date of the bill.
