State of Washington 56th Legislature 1999 Regular Session
By Senators Eide, Hochstatter and McAuliffe
Read first time 02/16/1999. Referred to Committee on Education.
AN ACT Relating to school director positions, residency, and vacancies; and amending RCW 28A.315.490.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON:
Sec. 1. RCW 28A.315.490 and 1969 ex.s. c 223 s 28A.57.318 are each amended to read as follows:
Directors of school districts shall be elected at regular school elections. No person shall be eligible to be elected to the office of school director who is not a citizen of the United States and the state of Washington and a registered voter of either the school district or director district, as the case may be. If a school board director remains a citizen of the United States and the state of Washington and a registered voter in the school district, but no longer resides in the correct director district, the director remains eligible for the office of school director until the next regular school district election, at which time a successor shall be elected for the unexpired term or a new term, as the case may be.
