[ Filed March 6, 2002, 11:10 a.m. ]

     Original Notice.

     Preproposal statement of inquiry was filed as WSR 02-02 (1/16/02) [WSR 02-02-079, on 12/31/01].

     Title of Rule: Meetings of the board of trustees -- Delegation of board responsibility, chapter 132G-104 WAC.

     Purpose: To revise two rules, WAC 132G-104-010 (last revised June 6, 1979) and WAC 132G-104-020 (last revised January 1, 1973), and to repeal WAC 132G-104-030, which will be reenacted in accordance with RCW 28B.10.528 by resolution of the college's board of trustees.

     Statutory Authority for Adoption: RCW 28B.50.140(13).

     Statute Being Implemented: RCW 42.30.070.

     Summary: These rules have not been updated since June 6, 1979 (WAC 132G-104-010); January 1, 1973 (WAC 132G-104-020) and January 1, 1973 (WAC 132G-104-030), respectively. The board has initiated a change to their meeting day, date and time (WAC 132G-104-010); has grammatical changes to WAC 132G-104-020; and wishes to repeal WAC 132G-104-030 Delegation to college president, in order to revise and update this section as an internal college policy only. The college board of trustees wishes to delegate its authority to the president of the college by resolution in accordance with RCW 28B.10.528, rather than by administrative rule.

     Reasons Supporting Proposal: The board of trustees wish to change their meeting date and time to be more accessible to faculty and staff at Shoreline Community College. The statute states that board meeting day, date and time must be included in the WAC. The board, further, wishes to retain the delegation of authority as an internal policy, where it is more accessible.

     Name of Proponent: Shoreline Community College, board of trustees.

     Rule is not necessitated by federal law, federal or state court decision.

     Explanation of Rule, its Purpose, and Anticipated Effects: The proposed rules change the college board of trustee meeting times and dates, correct grammar, and repeal the board's codified delegation of authority to the college president. The change in meeting times will make the college board meetings more accessible to the college community. The board is considering what changes it will make, if any, to its delegation of authority to the college president.

     Proposal Changes the Following Existing Rules: The proposed rules change the board meeting dates and times and rescinds the board's delegation of authority to the college president.

     No small business economic impact statement has been prepared under chapter 19.85 RCW. The proposed rule changes do not impact small business.

     Hearing Location: Central Conference Room, Building 1000, Shoreline Community College, 16101 Greenwood Avenue North, Seattle, WA 98133, on April 9, 2002, at 2:00 p.m.
