§ 13821 Agreement Approval Procedure

Key Takeaways

  • •The deal is official when both sides agree and sign it the right way.
  • •After a special group (local agency formation commission) gives their okay, the board must write down the full deal and say they want to do it.
  • •The board has to follow the rules in this chapter to make the deal real.

Example

Imagine your school wants to share the playground with another school.

First, a group of grown-ups (like the local agency formation commission) checks if it’s a good idea. Then, the school board writes down all the rules for sharing the playground and says, 'We want to do this!' Only then can both schools start using the playground together.
