Executive Summary:
Please find enclosed a certified copy of a resolution adopted on June 12, 2024, by the Board of Trustees of the Konocti Unified School District (the "District") ordering a school bond election to be held in the District on November 5, 2024 (the "Resolution"), and requesting consolidation of the election with any other election to be held in the District on the same date, delivered to you in accordance with Elections Code Section 10403. Section 3(b) of the Resolution includes the statement of the bond proposition for inclusion on the ballot. Please note that none of the projects proposed to be funded by the proposed bonds will require state matching funds to be completed. Therefore, the sample ballot should not contain the statement provided in Section 15122.5(b) of the California Education Code.
Exhibit A to the Resolution includes the full text of the bond proposition and Exhibit B to the Resolution includes the tax information statement with respect to the election in accordance with Section 9400 et seq. of the Election Code. Please also note that the District, in Section 3(c) of the Resolution, requests that the full text of the measure included on Exhibit A be printed in its entirety in the voter information guide.
Pursuant to Senate Bill No. 1118, school districts are no longer required to deliver resolutions ordering school bond elections to county superintendents of schools and there is no longer any formal notice of election required to be delivered to your office under California Education Code Section 5325. Therefore, you should not expect to receive a formal notice of election or the election order from the County Superintendent of Schools.
