HJ 92 Constitutional amendment; local governing bodies and school boards.
Introduced by: Riley E. Ingram | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Constitutional amendment (first resolution); county, city, and town governing bodies and school boards. Provides that the General Assembly may spell out by statute how local redistricting changes will be determined when redistricting affects both the governing body and an elected school board. The present Constitution requires the local governing body to redistrict each 10 years. The proposed amendment gives the General Assembly latitude to have the local governing body, elected school board, a combination of both, or an alternative entity redraw local district lines after each census.
