Policies and Procedures
Board Policies are set by the Board of Directors and impose legal requirements on the district and define the parameters within which district programs should operate. Policies normally go through a public reading and comment process before they are adopted or revised. Significant changes to policies require Board approval as does the adoption of new policies and the deletion of policies that have become obsolete or redundant. Administrative Procedures are established by the district administration and do not require board approval. Procedures that are expected to be controversial may go through a public comment process but are not required.
