Board Representatives
Labor Relations Negotiators

The Governing Board will designate a chief negotiator to represent it in negotiations with employee organizations. The Board itself will not negotiate with any employee organization directly.

The chief negotiator may be an employee of the district. Expert consultants in the field of negotiations may also be contracted to assist in the process of negotiations.

Although the negotiator will represent the Board in negotiations, the negotiator shall be responsible to the Superintendent, who shall present a job description to the Board for approval and who shall annually evaluate the performance of the negotiator.

The Board's role in the negotiation process will be:

1. To assess, to the best of its ability, the needs of its employees.

2. To set priorities for the total educational program in the best interests of students, the district and public in general.

3. To translate educational priorities and employee needs into a realistic budget.

4. To maintain the Board's position of authority and control as provided by law.

County Committee on School District Organization

The Board shall, at its annual organizational meeting, designate one Board member as its representative to elect members to the County Committee on School District Organization.

The Board shall provide this representative with nominees to the County Committee on School District Organization.

District Board members may be nominated to serve simultaneously as a member of the county committee. (Education Code 4007)

(cf. 9320 - Meetings)

Other Advisory Committees

The Board may appoint any of its members to serve on advisory committees or as representatives to other public agencies or organizations when the Board deems such appointments desirable, contingent on acceptance of the appointment by the member.
