Community colleges, emerg authority
COMMUNITY COLLEGES – Adds to existing law to provide for an investigation into the residency of a community college trustee and to provide for emergency authority of the State Board of Education when a community college’s accreditation is threatened.

RS30456 / H0226

The purpose of this legislation is to provide for remedies when a community college trustee no longer resides in the community college district, specify the emergency authority of the State Board of Education when action to revoke or suspend a community college’s accreditation has been initiated, and to provide for the preservation of community college property.

There is no immediate impact to any state-appropriated fund. Should the State Board of Education assume authority under this legislation, the costs may be absorbed by current appropriation to the Office of the State Board of Education and the community college.
