California: Winters school district trustees alleged to have violated open meeting law

The Yolo County Grand Jury reported that the Winters Joint Unified School District board of trustees violated California’s open meeting law, the Brown Act, by failing to properly place an important personnel item on the agenda.

The report was released a little over a year after the board fired a popular principal at Winters High School. The Grand Jury said that the firing was not properly on the agenda for open roll call and also cited other violations of the Brown Act. -db
