§ 15204 School Bond Cancellation Authority
This law lets a school or community college board ask the county supervisors to cancel any leftover bond authority after they've sold at least 90% of the bonds, if the leftover amount is $25,000 or less and selling it wouldn't make financial sense.
A school district was allowed to sell $10 million in bonds. After the election, they have sold $9.95 million, leaving only $50,000 of authorized bonds still unsold.
Because they have sold more than 90% of the bonds and the remaining $50,000 is more than $25,000, they cannot cancel the leftover authority under this law. If instead only $20,000 were left unsold, the board could ask the supervisors to cancel that remaining authority.
