CUSD To Change Election System to By-Trustee Area In 2014
San Andreas, CA....On June 24, 2012 the Calaveras Unified School District Board of Trustees passed Resolution 2011/12-21 to initiate a change of our election system to a By-Trustee Area election commencing with the 2014 election. The County Committee on School District Organization approved CUSD’s resolution on September 24, 2012. A Public Hearing notification was sent notifying stakeholders of CUSD’s intent to apply for a General Waiver with the State Board of Education to propose a change to By-Trustee Area elections. The waiver was necessary to enable the Board to implement By-Trustee area elections in November 2014. The California Department of Education issued its Disposition Letter on May 16, 2013 informing CUSD that the General Waiver had been approved....
.
CUSD hired the Calaveras County GIS Department to model new Trustee Area Boundaries, consisting of approximately 20% of the CUSD population in each of the 5 areas. The proposed map is attached and will be available for public viewing during the month of September and October.
Our intent is to adopt a final resolution at the November 20, 2013 Board meeting approving the boundaries. The Calaveras County Commission on School District Organization will be presented with the resolution in December for approval and, thereafter the new By-Trustee voting areas will be submitted to the County Election Department.
