Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding appointments and elections to fill vacant school trustee positions after a recall or resignation following a recall petition.

This legislation will change the manner in which school board trustees fill positions that are vacated due to a recall. This process will be applied to a recall that: a) Was initiated and then the trustee chose to resign; b) Was initiated and then recalled through the voting process; It further states that if a regularly scheduled election date is upcoming within 90 days of a successful recall, then no one shall be appointed to a position and it shall remain open and allow candidates to run for the vacated trustee office. If such a position is farther out than 90 days, the trustee position will be filled as a “temporary” position only and will be up for election at the next possible election cycle where the permanent trustee position will be decided.
