Revised (Nov 21 2008)
Policies, bylaws and regulations
The School Act requires that some types of decisions be made by bylaw rather than ordinary resolution. This includes matters of continuing effect (e.g., appeal procedures, elections processes) and matters that require a higher degree of formality (e.g., board budget, disposal of property). The bylaw process can also be used at the board’s discretion for other types of decisions.
Bylaws require three distinct readings to be adopted. The readings cannot happen at the same meeting unless the trustees present at the meeting unanimously agree to this.
