§ 8716 Emergency Work Notice Requirement

• •If there's an emergency job (like a sudden big problem that needs fixing right away), you have to tell the board immediately.
• •Don't wait—let them know as soon as you can.
• •This rule was added a long time ago (1943) to make sure the board stays in the loop.

A water pipe bursts in a school, flooding the hallway.

The janitor or principal must tell the school board right away so they can approve fixing it fast.
