Orig. Code(s): BI

The board will represent the district’s interests in legislative action to promote the welfare of public education in the state of Oregon or will direct those interests to be represented through its executive officer, the superintendent or designee.

The board will periodically study, discuss and weigh the merits of pending legislation for the purpose of determining its official position through board action. If established, these official positions will be the stand of the district in the legislative process.

Board members, individually or as members of professional organizations, will not seek to represent any other positions on legislative matters unless it is made clear that such representation is not the official stand of the district.
