MJUSD Property 7-11 Committee

The Committee's purpose is to review and analyze the properties owned by the Marysville Joint Unified School District. It will identify which real estate can be designated as "excess" or "surplus" because it is no longer needed for school purposes. The Committee will then present a report to the Board of Trustees, recommending potential uses for the surplus property or suggesting methods for its disposal, such as sale or lease. This task is very important, and the following highly qualified, capable, and committed individuals have been selected to serve as Committee members.
 
Serving on the Committee is an important task and we are looking for highly qualified, capable and committed individuals to be members of the Committee.
 
Under California law (Education Code sec. 17389), the Committee must have at least seven (7) members and no more than eleven (11) members and contain persons who can be representative of each of the following:
 
  • The ethnic, age group, and socioeconomic composition of the district;

  • Parents of Students;
  • Persons with expertise in environmental impact, legal contracts, building codes, and land use planning, including, but not limited to, knowledge of the zoning and other land use restrictions of the cities or cities and counties in which surplus space and real property is located.
 
California law also designates the specific duties of a 7-11 Committee (Education Code § 17390) as follows:
 
  • Review the projected school enrollment and other data as provided by the district to determine the amount of surplus space and real property;
  • Establish a priority list of use of surplus space and real property that will be acceptable to the community;
  • Cause to have circulated throughout the attendance area a priority list of surplus space and real property and provide for hearings or community input to the  Committee on acceptable uses of space and real property, including the sale or lease of surplus real property for child care development purposes pursuant to Section 17458;
  • Make a final determination of limits of tolerance of the use of space and real Property;
  • Forward to the Board of Trustees a report recommending uses of surplus space and real property.
 

Other Information/Conflict of Interest

As a member of the Committee, an individual may be subject to conflict of interest provisions including Government Code Section 1090, prohibition against financial interests in any contracts of the District, if the individual participates in the making of such contracts. In addition, members of the Committee may also be subject to the general prohibition against conflicts of interests set forth in the Political Reform Act of 1974. For example, if a Committee member owns a piece of property that may be financially affected by an act of the Committee, the Political Reform Act may require that the Committee takes steps to ensure its decisions are not influenced by the Committee member in question. The District will provide the Committee with further information regarding conflict of interest laws at the first Committee meeting.
