Bill > LD1992

This bill establishes a process for residents of a municipality that is part of a municipal school unit within a school union to vote and withdraw from that school union, mirroring the existing procedure for a single municipality to withdraw from a regional school unit. A "school union" refers to a group of municipalities that have joined together to operate a school system, and a "municipal school unit" is the school district operated by a single municipality within such a union. The bill amends Title 20-A of the Maine Revised Statutes by adding a new section, §1905, to allow for this withdrawal process, which will be conducted similarly to how a municipality can leave a regional school unit under section 1466.
