Bill > HB2110

This bill establishes a new procedure for certain school districts to detach from a community college district through a voter-approved process. Specifically, the bill applies to school districts located in a county with a population between 100,000 and 120,000 inhabitants and a county seat with between 9,000 and 11,000 residents. The legislation requires these school districts to submit a ballot question to voters about detaching from their current community college district, first in November 2026 and then every six years thereafter. If a majority of voters approve the detachment, the school district must separate from the community college district within six years of the election. If the majority votes against detachment, the district remains part of the community college district until a future election where detachment is approved. The bill also includes provisions for how the annexation or detachment process should be conducted, including requirements for publishing notices, creating boundary change plats, and handling the district's existing assets and indebtedness. The goal appears to be providing these specific school districts with more local control over their educational district affiliations.
