The District entered into a Facilities Use Agreement with Charter School of Morgan Hill (CSMH) for the 2017-18 school year. On June 5, 2018, the Board approved Addendum #1 extending the term of the Facilities Use Agreement for the 2018-19 school year, again on October 16, 2018 extending the term of the Facilities Use Agreement for the 2019-20 school year with Addendum #2, and once again on October 1, 2019 with Addendum #3 extending the term for the 2020-21 school year.

The District and CSMH determined it would be mutually beneficial to extend the current Facilities Use Agreement through 2021-22. Staff recommends approval of Addendum #4.

Senate Bill 1029 (SB 1029), which went into effect on January 1, 2017, revises the Government Code to require additional reporting requirements related to the issuance of debt by a local agency. SB 1029 amends Government Code Section 8855 to place additional reporting obligations on the issuers of public debt in California. As amended, Section 8855(k) now requires state and local debt issuers who have submitted a report of final sale to CDIAC to subsequently submit an annual debt report. The annual debt report must include, at a minimum, the amount of debt authorized, the debt outstanding, and the use of proceeds of the issued debt during the reporting period.

Only Measure G Series B was issued after January 1, 2017 and is under the new requirements. The attached report was submitted to CDIAC and is submitted as information to the Board in accordance with the District’s debt policy adopted on August 1, 2017

Staff has reviewed the District's current Board Bylaw 9270, made revisions as recommended by the Santa Clara County County Office of County Counsel, and ensured compliance with California School Board Association's recommendations. The revised bylaw includes actual position titles of designated positions. 

Board members had an opportunity to review the Conflict of Interest Code including Appendix of Designated Employees and Disclosure Categories at the September 15, 2020 meeting. The Office of the County Counsel of Santa Clara County has reviewed the proposed revisions and suggested a few minor edits, which are now included in the attached. 

Following Board approval, this Code will be sent to the Santa Clara County Office of County Counsel for submission to the County Board of Supervisors for approval. Pursuant to Government Code section 87303, "No conflict of interest code shall be effective until it has been approved by the code-reviewing body." The County of Santa Clara Board of Supervisors is the code-reviewing body.

Per Education Code 45266, "The personnel director shall be responsible to the commission for carrying out all procedures in the administration of the classified personnel in conformity with this article and the rules of the commission, and shall be free of prejudgment or bias in order to ensure the impartiality of the commission. He or she shall also act as secretary of the commission and shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, an annual report which shall be sent by the commission to the governing board."

In accordance with this provision in the Education Code, staff has prepared the 2019-20 Annual Report which provides a summary of the work completed by the Personnel Commission staff, including the hiring activities for classified personnel, and recognizing those who have retired from the school district.

Annually, commissioners take a few moments to present the annual report to the governing board.
