September 26, 2018 First Reading of Revised Board Policy 3100: Budget


Submitted by Conrad L. Tedeschi, CPA, Assistant Superintendent, Business Services

Executive Summary:

This proposed policy is updated to reflect NEW LAW (SB 751) that amended Section 42127.01 of the California Education code.

In a fiscal year immediately after a fiscal year in which the amount of moneys in the Public School System Stabilization Account is equal to or exceeds 3 percent of the combined total of General Fund revenues appropriated for school districts pursuant to subdivision (c) of Section 41202 and allocated local proceeds of taxes pursuant to subdivision (g) of Section 41202 for that fiscal year, a school district budget that is adopted or revised pursuant to Section 42127 shall not contain a combined assigned or unassigned ending general fund balance that is in excess of 10 percent of those funds.

We propose this change to the policy even though this section of the law does not apply to a basic aid school district or a small school district with less than 2,501 units of average daily attendance.

This version of the policy also removes language that addresses board action on estimated accrued but unfunded cost of workers’ compensation claims.

BP 3100 Proposed Document BP 3100 Revision Document


11C – First Reading of Revised Board Policy 3100: Budget




Proposed Board Policy BP 3100: Budget Business and Noninstructional Operations The Board of Trustees recognizes its critical responsibility for adopting a sound budget each fiscal year which is aligned with the district's vision, goals, priorities, local control and accountability plan (LCAP), and other comprehensive plans. The district budget shall guide decisions and actions throughout the year and shall serve as a tool for monitoring the fiscal health of the district. (cf. 0000 - Vision) (cf. 0200 - Goals for the School District) (cf. 0400 - Comprehensive Plans) (cf. 0460 - Local Control and Accountability Plan) (cf. 3300 - Expenditures and Purchases) (cf. 3460 - Financial Reports and Accountability) (cf. 9000 - Role of the Board) The district budget shall show a complete plan and itemized statement of all proposed expenditures and all estimated revenues for the following fiscal year, together with a comparison of revenues and expenditures for the current fiscal year. The budget shall also include the appropriations limit and the total annual appropriations subject to limitation as determined pursuant to Government Code 7900-7914. (Education Code 42122) Budget Development and Adoption Process In order to provide guidance in the development of the budget, the Board shall annually establish budget priorities based on identified district needs and goals and on realistic projections of available funds. The Superintendent or designee shall oversee the preparation of a proposed district budget for approval by the Board and shall involve appropriate staff in the development of budget projections. The Board shall hold a public hearing on the proposed budget in accordance with Education Code 42103 and 42127. (cf. 9320 - Meetings and Notices) (cf. 9322 - Agenda/Meeting Materials) (cf. 9323 - Meeting Conduct) The Board shall adopt the district budget on or before July 1 of each year.





(Education Code 42127) At a public meeting scheduled on a date after the public hearing on the budget, the Board shall, following its adoption of the LCAP or an annual update to the LCAP, adopt the budget. The budget shall include the expenditures necessary to implement the LCAP or the annual update to the LCAP. (Education Code 42127, 52062) The budget that is formally adopted by the Board shall adhere to the state's Standardized Account Code Structure as prescribed by the Superintendent of Public Instruction. (Education Code 42126, 42127) The Superintendent or designee may supplement this format with additional information as necessary to effectively communicate the budget to the Board, staff, and public. No later than five days after the Board adopts the district budget or by July 1, whichever occurs first, the Board shall file with the County Superintendent of Schools the adopted district budget and supporting data. The budget and supporting data shall be maintained and made available for public review. (Education Code 42127) (cf. 1340 - Access to District Records) If the County Superintendent disapproves or conditionally approves the district's budget, the Board shall review and respond to his/her recommendations at a public meeting on or before October 8. The response shall include any revisions to the adopted budget and any other proposed actions to be taken as a result of those recommendations. (Education Code 42127) Budget Criteria and Standards The Superintendent or designee shall develop a district budget in accordance with state criteria and standards specified in 5 CCR 15440-15450 as they relate to projections of average daily attendance (ADA), enrollment, ratio of ADA to enrollment, local control funding formula revenue, salaries and benefits, other revenues and expenditures, facilities maintenance, deficit spending, unrestricted general fund balance, and reserves. In addition, he/she shall provide the supplemental information specified in 5 CCR 15451 which addresses the methodology and budget assumptions used, contingent liabilities, use of one-time revenues for ongoing expenditures, use of ongoing revenues for one-time expenditures, contingent revenues, contributions, long-term commitments, unfunded liabilities, status of collective bargaining agreements, the LCAP, and LCAP expenditures. (Education Code 33128, 33128.3, 33129, 42127.01; 5 CCR





15440-15451) The district budget shall provide for increasing or improving services for unduplicated students at least in proportion to the increase in funds apportioned on the basis of the number and concentration of unduplicated students in accordance with 5 CCR 15496. Unduplicated students are students who are eligible for free or reduced-price meals, English learners, and/or foster youth. (Education Code 42238.07; 5 CCR 15496) (cf. 3553 - Free and Reduced Price Meals) (cf. 6173.1 - Education for Foster Youth) (cf. 6174 - Education for English Learners) The Board may establish other budget assumptions or parameters which may take into consideration the stability of funding sources, legal requirements and constraints on the use of funds, anticipated increases and/or decreases in the cost of services and supplies, program requirements, and any other factors necessary to ensure that the budget is a realistic plan for district revenues and expenditures. (cf. 2210 - Administrative Discretion Regarding Board Policy) (cf. 3110 - Transfer of Funds) Fund Balance The district shall classify fund balances in compliance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement 54, as follows: 1. Nonspendable fund balance includes amounts that are not expected to be converted to cash, such as resources that are not in a spendable form (e.g., inventories and prepaids) or that are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact. 2. Restricted fund balance includes amounts constrained to specific purposes by their providers or by law. 3. Committed fund balance includes amounts constrained to specific purposes by the Board. For this purpose, all commitments of funds shall be approved by a majority vote of the Board. The constraints shall be imposed no later than the end of the reporting period (June 30), although the actual amounts may be determined subsequent to that date but prior to the issuance of the financial statements.





4. Assigned fund balance includes amounts which are intended for a specific purpose but do not meet the criteria to be classified as restricted or committed. The Board delegates authority to assign funds to the assigned fund balance to the Superintendent and authorizes the assignment of such funds to be made any time prior to the issuance of the financial statements. The Superintendent may further delegate the authority to assign funds at his/her discretion. 5. Unassigned fund balance includes amounts that are available for any purpose. When multiple types of funds are available for an expenditure, the district shall first utilize funds from the restricted fund balance as appropriate, then from the committed fund balance, then from the assigned fund balance, and lastly from the unassigned fund balance. The Board intends to maintain a minimum assigned and unassigned fund balance in an amount the Board deems sufficient to maintain fiscal solvency and stability and to protect the district against unforeseen circumstances. If the assigned and unassigned fund balance falls below the level set by the Board due to an emergency situation, unexpected expenditures, or revenue shortfalls, the Board shall develop a plan to recover the fund balance which may include dedicating new unrestricted revenues, reducing expenditures, and/or increasing revenues or pursuing other funding sources. Reserve Balance The district budget shall include a minimum reserve balance for economic uncertainties that is consistent with the percentage or amount specified in 5 CCR 15450. In any year that the district is notified by the Superintendent of Public Instruction that the amount of monies in the state Public School System Stabilization Account equals or exceeds three percent of the combined total of general fund revenues appropriated for school districts and allocated local proceeds of taxes, the district budget shall not contain a combined assigned or unassigned ending general fund balance that is in excess of 10 percent of these funds. (Education Code 41202, 42127.01) This section does not apply to locally funded (basic aid) districts.





Long-Term Financial Obligations The district's current-year budget and multiyear projections shall include adequate provisions for addressing the district's long-term financial obligations, including, but not limited to, long-term obligations resulting from collective bargaining agreements, financing of facilities projects, unfunded or future liability for retiree benefits, and accrued workers' compensation claims. (cf. 4141/4241 - Collective Bargaining Agreement) (cf. 4154/4254/4354 - Health and Welfare Benefits) (cf. 7210 - Facilities Financing) (cf. 9250 - Remuneration, Reimbursement and Other Benefits) Budget Amendments No later than 45 days after the Governor signs the annual Budget Act, the Superintendent or designee shall make available for public review any revisions in budgeted revenues and expenditures which occur as a result of the funding made available by that Budget Act. (Education Code 42127) Whenever revenues and expenditures change significantly throughout the year, the Superintendent or designee shall recommend budget amendments to ensure accurate projections of the district's net ending balance. When final figures for the prior-year budget are available, this information shall be used as soon as possible to update the current-year budget's beginning balance and projected revenues and expenditures. In addition, budget amendments shall be submitted for Board approval as necessary when collective bargaining agreements are accepted, district income declines, increased revenues or unanticipated savings are made available to the district, program proposals are significantly different from those approved during budget adoption, interfund transfers are needed to meet actual program expenditures, and/or other significant changes occur that impact budget projections.

(cf. 2210 - Administrative Discretion Regarding Board Policy) (cf. 3110 - Transfer of Funds) Fund Balance The district shall classify fund balances in compliance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement 54, as follows: 1. Nonspendable fund balance includes amounts that are not expected to be converted to cash, such as resources that are not in a spendable form (e.g., inventories and prepaids) or that are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact. 2. Restricted fund balance includes amounts constrained to specific purposes by their providers or by law. 3. Committed fund balance includes amounts constrained to specific purposes by the Board. For this purpose, all commitments of funds shall be approved by a majority vote of the Board. The constraints shall be imposed no later than the end of the reporting period (June 30), although the actual amounts may be determined





subsequent to that date but prior to the issuance of the financial statements. 4. Assigned fund balance includes amounts which are intended for a specific purpose but do not meet the criteria to be classified as restricted or committed. The Board delegates authority to assign funds to the assigned fund balance to the Superintendent and authorizes the assignment of such funds to be made any time prior to the issuance of the financial statements. The Superintendent may further delegate the authority to assign funds at his/her discretion. 5. Unassigned fund balance includes amounts that are available for any purpose. When multiple types of funds are available for an expenditure, the district shall first utilize funds from the restricted fund balance as appropriate, then from the committed fund balance, then from the assigned fund balance, and lastly from the unassigned fund balance. The Board intends to maintain a minimum assigned and unassigned fund balance in an amount the Board deems sufficient to maintain fiscal solvency and stability and to protect the district against unforeseen circumstances. If the assigned and unassigned fund balance falls below the level set by the Board due to an emergency situation, unexpected expenditures, or revenue shortfalls, the Board shall develop a plan to recover the fund balance which may include dedicating new unrestricted revenues, reducing expenditures, and/or increasing revenues or pursuing other funding sources. Reserve Balance The district budget shall include a minimum reserve balance for economic uncertainties that is consistent with the percentage or amount specified in 5 CCR 15450. In any year that the district is notified by the Superintendent of Public Instruction that the amount of monies in the state Public School System Stabilization Account equals or exceeds three percent of the combined total of general fund revenues appropriated for school districts and allocated local proceeds of taxes, the district budget shall not contain a combined assigned or unassigned ending general fund balance that is in excess of 10 percent of these funds. (Education Code 41202, 42127.01) This section does not apply to locally funded (basic aid) districts.





Long-Term Financial Obligations The district's current-year budget and multiyear projections shall include adequate provisions for addressing the district's long-term financial obligations, including, but not limited to, long-term obligations resulting from collective bargaining agreements, financing of facilities projects, unfunded or future liability for retiree benefits, and accrued workers' compensation claims. (cf. 4141/4241 - Collective Bargaining Agreement) (cf. 4154/4254/4354 - Health and Welfare Benefits) (cf. 7210 - Facilities Financing) (cf. 9250 - Remuneration, Reimbursement and Other Benefits) When the Superintendent or designee presents a report to the Board on the estimated accrued but unfunded cost of workers' compensation claims, the Board shall disclose, as a separate agenda item at the same meeting, whether or not it will reserve in the budget sufficient amounts to fund the present value of accrued but unfunded workers' compensation claims or if it is otherwise decreasing the amount in its workers' compensation reserve fund. The Board shall annually certify to the County Superintendent the amount, if any, that it has decided to reserve in the budget for these costs. The Board shall submit to the County Superintendent any budget revisions that may be necessary to account for this budget reserve. (Education Code 42141) Budget Amendments No later than 45 days after the Governor signs the annual Budget Act, the Superintendent or designee shall make available for public review any revisions in budgeted revenues and expenditures which occur as a result of the funding made available by that Budget Act. (Education Code 42127) Whenever revenues and expenditures change significantly throughout the year, the Superintendent or designee shall recommend budget amendments to ensure accurate projections of the district's net ending balance. When final figures for the prior-year budget are available, this information shall be used as soon as possible to update the current-year budget's beginning balance and projected revenues and expenditures. In addition, budget amendments shall be submitted for Board approval as necessary when collective bargaining agreements are accepted, district income declines, increased revenues or unanticipated savings are made available to the district, program proposals are significantly different from those approved during budget adoption, interfund transfers are needed to meet actual program expenditures, and/or other significant changes occur that impact budget





projections.

Update on New District-wide Websites Consent Item Action Item X Information Item


Executive Summary: Websites for the Goleta Union School District (GUSD) and all the school sites are all managed internally by various people using WordPress software. As a result, there is very little consistency and keeping up with website ADA requirements remains a challenge. District IT staff has received several proposals from website design management companies that focus on schools to come up with a solution that would update our technology and websites to meet all ADA requirements, provide consistency across the District, and allow for ease of management and support. We have narrowed our search down to a preferred provider and would like to discuss the move forward with the project to upgrade our web presence throughout the district. Attachment:

Approximately $10,500 to implement all sites, and $8,100 annually to host.

Update on City of Goleta Funding for Crossing Guards Consent Item Action Item X Information Item


Executive Summary: For several years the City of Goleta has supported the District with an annual grant of $20,000.00 toward the cost of providing crossing guards for students attending schools within the Goleta city limits; Brandon, Ellwood, Kellogg, and La Patera. Last year, 2017-2018, the Board approved a Memorandum of Understanding between GUSD and the City of Goleta that formalized this financial support. For 2018-2019 GUSD has had to enter into a competitive community grant process with other local agencies for the funding. A letter has been written, documentation has been submitted and a presentation made to the grant committee. The decision originally scheduled for the September 8 meeting of the Goleta City Council has been delayed to the meeting on October 2, so we are still awaiting the final resolution on the funds. The total cost for crossing guards at the four schools is projected to be $43,000 for the 2018-2019 school year.

Fiscal Impact: $20,000.00 Revenue to offset personnel costs

Conflict of Interest under the Political Reform Act A Board member or designated employee shall not make, participate in making, or in any way use or attempt to use his/her official position to influence a governmental decision in which he/she knows or has reason to know that he/she has a disqualifying conflict of interest. A conflict of interest exists if the decision will have a "reasonably foreseeable material financial effect" on one or more of the Board member's or designated employee's "economic interests, "unless the effect is indistinguishable from the effect on the public generally or the Board member's or designated employee's participation is legally required. (Government Code 87100, 87101, 87103; 2 CCR 18700-18709) A Board member or designated employee makes a governmental decision when, acting within the authority of his/her office or position, he/she votes on a matter, appoints a person, obligates or commits the district to any course of action, or enters into any contractual agreement on behalf of the district. (2 CCR 18702.1) A Board member who has a disqualifying conflict of interest on an agenda item that will be heard in an open meeting of the Board shall abstain from voting on the matter. He/she may remain on the dais, but his/her presence shall not be counted towards achieving a quorum for that matter. A Board member with a disqualifying conflict of interest shall not be present during a closed session meeting of the Board when the decision is considered and shall not obtain or review a recording or any other nonpublic information regarding the issue. (2 CCR 18702.1) Conflict of Interest under Government Code 1090 Board members, employees, or district consultants shall not be financially interested in any contract made by the Board on behalf of the district, including in the development, preliminary discussions, negotiations, compromises, planning, reasoning, and specifications and solicitations for bids. If a Board member has such a financial interest, the district is barred from entering into the contract. (Government Code 1090; Klistoff v. Superior Court, (2007) 157 Cal.App. 4th 469) A Board member shall not be considered to be financially interested in a contract if his/her interest is a "noninterest" as defined in Government Code 1091.5. One such noninterest is when a Board member's spouse/registered domestic partner has been a district employee for at least one year prior to the Board member's election or appointment. (Government Code 1091.5) A Board member shall not be considered to be financially interested in a contract if he/she has only a "remote interest" in the contract as specified in Government Code 1091 and if the remote interest is disclosed during a Board meeting and





noted in the official Board minutes. The affected Board member shall not vote or debate on the matter or attempt to influence any other Board member to enter into the contract. (Government Code 1091) Even if there is not a prohibited conflict of interest, a Board member shall abstain from voting on personnel matters that uniquely affect his/her relatives. However, a Board member may vote on collective bargaining agreements and personnel matters that affect a class of employees to which his/her relative belongs. Relative means an adult who is related to the Board member by blood or affinity within the third degree, as determined by the common law, or an individual in an adoptive relationship within the third degree. (Education Code 35107) A relationship within the third degree includes an individual's parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, and the similar family of the individual's spouse/registered domestic partner unless the individual is widowed or divorced. Common Law Doctrine Against Conflict of Interest A Board member shall abstain from any official action in which his/her private or personal interest may conflict with his/her official duties. Rule of Necessity or Legally Required Participation On a case-by-case basis and upon advice of legal counsel, a Board member with a financial interest in a contract may participate in the making of the contract if the rule of necessity or legally required participation applies pursuant to Government Code 87101 and 2 CCR 18708. Incompatible Offices and Activities Board members shall not engage in any employment or activity or hold any office which is inconsistent with, incompatible with, in conflict with, or inimical to the Board member's duties as an officer of the district. (Government Code 1099, 1126) (cf. 4136/4236/4336 - Nonschool Employment) Gifts Board members and designated employees may accept gifts only under the conditions and limitations specified in Government Code 89503 and 2 CCR 18730.





The limitation on gifts does not apply to wedding gifts and gifts exchanged between individuals on birthdays, holidays, and other similar occasions, provided that the gifts exchanged are not substantially disproportionate in value. (Government Code 89503) Gifts of travel and related lodging and subsistence shall be subject to the current gift limitation except as described in Government Code 89506.

September 26, 2018 Second Reading and Approval of Revised Board Policy 1312.3: Uniform Complaint Procedures


Submitted by Dr. Margaret Saleh, Deputy Superintendent, Pupil Services

Executive Summary:

This Policy is updated to list all state and federal programs subject to the uniform complaint procedures (UCP) as specified in the Federal Program Monitoring instrument. It also reflects NEW LAW (AB 699), which includes immigration status as a prohibited basis for discrimination, and reflects NEW LAW (AB 365), which authorizes the use of UCP for alleged noncompliance with certain educational rights of children of military families. The Policy also is revised to clarify that, although complaints of employment discrimination are not subject to UCP, the district has an obligation to investigate such complaints using other district procedures. Regulation updated to reflect a requirement in AB 365 that the annual UCP notice include the educational rights of children of military families. Attachment: BP 1312.3 Proposed Document Fiscal Impact: None. Recommendation: It is recommended that the Board approve the Revised Board Policy 1312.3: Uniform Complaint Procedures.


13C – Second Reading and Approval of Revised Board Policy 1312.3: Uniform Complaint




Proposed Board Policy BP 1312.3: Uniform Complaint Procedures Community Relations The Board of Trustees recognizes that the district has the primary responsibility to ensure compliance with applicable state and federal laws and regulations governing educational programs. The Board encourages early resolution of complaints whenever possible. To resolve complaints which may require a more formal process, the Board adopts the uniform system of complaint processes specified in 5 CCR 4600-4670 and the accompanying administrative regulation. Complaints Subject to the Uniform Complaint Procedure (UCP) The district's uniform complaint procedures shall be used to investigate and resolve the following complaints: 1. Any complaint alleging district violation of applicable state or federal law or regulations governing education programs, After School Education and Safety programs, and early childhood education program assessments, bilingual education, peer assistance and review programs for teachers, child care and development programs, child nutrition programs, compensatory education, consolidated categorical aid programs, Economic Impact Aid, English learner programs, federal education programs in Title I-VII, migrant education, school safety plans, special education programs, State Preschool Programs, Tobacco-Use Prevention Education programs, and any other district-implemented program which is listed in Education Code 64000(a) (cf. 3553 - Free and Reduced Price Meals) (cf. 3555 - Nutrition Program Compliance) (cf. 5131.62 - Tobacco) (cf. 5148 - Child Care and Development) (cf. 5148.2 - Before/After School Programs) (cf. 5148.3 - Preschool/Early Childhood Education) (cf. 6159 - Individualized Education Program) (cf. 6171 - Title I Programs) (cf. 6174 - Education for English Learners) (cf. 6175 - Migrant Education Program) 2. Any complaint alleging the occurrence of unlawful discrimination (such as discriminatory harassment, intimidation, or bullying) against any student, employee, or other person participating in district programs and activities, including, but not limited to, those programs or activities funded directly by or that receive or benefit from any state financial assistance, based on the person's actual or perceived characteristics of race or ethnicity, color, ancestry, nationality,





national origin, immigration status, ethnic group identification, age, religion, marital status, pregnancy, parental status, physical or mental disability, sex, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, gender expression, or genetic information, or any other characteristic identified in Education Code 200 or 220, Government Code 11135, or Penal Code 422.55, or based on his/her association with a person or group with one or more of these actual or perceived characteristics (5 CCR 4610) (cf. 0410 - Nondiscrimination in District Programs and Activities) (cf. 5145.3 - Nondiscrimination/Harassment) (cf. 5145.7 - Sexual Harassment) 3. Any complaint alleging district noncompliance with the prohibition against requiring students to pay fees, deposits, or other charges for participation in educational activities (5 CCR 4610) (cf. 3260 - Fees and Charges) (cf. 3320 - Claims and Actions Against the District) 4. Any complaint alleging district noncompliance with legal requirements related to the implementation of the local control and accountability plan (Education Code 52075) (cf. 0460 - Local Control and Accountability Plan) 5. Any complaint, by or on behalf of any student who is a foster youth, alleging district noncompliance with any legal requirement applicable to the student regarding placement decisions, the responsibilities of the district's educational liaison to the student, the award of credit for coursework satisfactorily completed in another school or district, school transfer, or the grant of an exemption from Board-imposed graduation requirements (Education Code 48853, 48853.5, 49069.5, 51225.1, 51225.2) (cf. 6173.1 - Education for Foster Youth) 6. Any complaint alleging district noncompliance with the physical education instructional minutes requirement for students in elementary school (Education Code 51210, 51223) (cf. 6142.7 - Physical Education and Activity) 7. Any complaint alleging retaliation against a complainant or other participant in the complaint process or anyone who has acted to uncover or report a violation subject to this policy





8. Any other complaint as specified in a district policy The Board recognizes that alternative dispute resolution (ADR) can, depending on the nature of the allegations, offer a process to reach a resolution to the complaint that is acceptable to all parties. ADR such as mediation may be offered to resolve complaints that involve more than one student and no adult. However, mediation shall not be offered or used to resolve any complaint involving sexual assault or where there is a reasonable risk that a party to the mediation would feel compelled to participate. The Superintendent or designee shall ensure that the use of ADR is consistent with state and federal laws and regulations. The district shall protect all complainants from retaliation. In investigating complaints, the confidentiality of the parties involved shall be protected as required by law. For any complaint alleging retaliation or unlawful discrimination (such as discriminatory harassment, intimidation, or bullying), the Superintendent or designee shall keep the identity of the complainant, and/or the subject of the complaint if he/she is different from the complainant, confidential when appropriate and as long as the integrity of the complaint process is maintained. (cf. 4119.23/4219.23/4319.23 - Unauthorized Release of Confidential/Privileged Information) (cf. 5125 - Student Records) (cf. 9011 - Disclosure of Confidential/Privileged Information) When an allegation that is not subject to the UCP is included in a UCP complaint, the district shall refer the non-UCP allegation to the appropriate staff or agency and shall investigate and, if appropriate, resolve the UCP-related allegation(s) through the district's UCP. The Superintendent or designee shall provide training to district staff to ensure awareness and knowledge of current law and related requirements, including the steps and timelines specified in this policy and the accompanying administrative regulation. (cf. 4131 - Staff Development) (cf. 4231 - Staff Development) (cf. 4331 - Staff Development) The Superintendent or designee shall maintain records of all UCP complaints and the investigations of those complaints in accordance with applicable law and district policy. (cf. 3580 - District Records)





Non-UCP Complaints The following complaints shall not be subject to the district's UCP but shall be referred to the specified agency: (5 CCR 4611) 1. Any complaint alleging child abuse or neglect shall be referred to the County Department of Social Services, the County Protective Services Division, and the appropriate law enforcement agency. (cf. 5141.4 - Child Abuse Prevention and Reporting) 2. Any complaint alleging health and safety violations by a child development program shall, for licensed facilities, be referred to Department of Social Services and shall, for licensing-exempt facilities, be referred to the appropriate Child Development regional administrator. 3. Any complaint alleging fraud shall be referred to the Legal, Audits and Compliance Branch of the California Department of Education. Any complaint alleging employment discrimination or harassment shall be investigated and resolved by the district in accordance with the procedures specified in AR 4030 - Nondiscrimination in Employment. Any complaint related to sufficiency of textbooks or instructional materials, emergency or urgent facilities conditions that pose a threat to the health or safety of students or staff, or teacher vacancies and misassignments shall be investigated and resolved in accordance with the procedures in AR 1312.4 - Williams Uniform Complaint Procedures.
