ISSUE
Board approval is required for revisions to Board Policies. Revisions are proposed for Board Policy No.
B P 025 - Naming of District Facilities.
BACKGROUND
All Board Policies are reviewed by staff at least every two years, after which they are brought before a
Board Committee for review. If no changes are recommended either by staff or the Committee, Board
Policies are returned to the queue for review in another two years. However, if revisions are
recommended, Board Policies are brought to the full Board for consideration.
In this case, staff has recommended a couple of changes to B P 025 - Naming of District Facilities, and
the Administration Committee has concurred. The proposed changes merely clarify that facilities may be
named in honor of exemplary public service rendered by an individual ora community organization.
