§ 28791 Board Meeting Quorum Rules

Key Takeaways

  • •Most of the board members must be present to make big decisions.
  • •If not enough members are there, they can't do official business.
  • •This rule helps make sure decisions are fair and agreed upon by most.

Example

A school board is voting on whether to build a new playground.

If the board has 5 members, at least 3 must be at the meeting to vote. If only 2 show up, they can't make the decision—they have to wait until more members are there.
