§ 15322 School District Hearing Requirements

This law says the school or community college board has to hold a public hearing when they plan something, and anyone who cares—like landowners—can come and speak about it.

Key Takeaways

  • •The board must hold a hearing at the time and place they choose in their resolution.
  • •Any interested person, especially landowners in the district, can appear and be heard.
  • •The hearing is only about the topics listed in the board’s resolution of intention.

Example

A school district wants to build a new elementary school on a piece of land. The board sets a date and location for a hearing, and a nearby farmer who owns land next to the proposed site shows up to talk about how the school might affect his farm.

Because the law requires a hearing, the board must let the farmer and any other interested people speak about the plan before moving forward.
