Oversight meetings occur rarely,

Legal agency says cases are
rotated
By Ashly McGlone
UT San Diego
Jan. 30, 2015

...Although
school districts
are entitled to a
representative on the
governing board
of the
agency, some don’t take
advantage of it.

Several members of the
board contacted by the U-
T were
unaware they
were on it
, including the
superintendents for the
Coronado, La Mesa-
Spring Valley, San
Pasqual, Vallecitos and
Jamul-Dulzura districts,
and the associate
superintendent at
Encinitas Union.

Coronado Superintendent
Jeffrey Felix said he was

unaware the board held
one of its rare meetings
last month.

And Frank Gomez of San Pasqual
Union School District was listed
on the agency’s web site as of
Friday as an alternate board
member even though he died in
2009.

Districts also don’t possess or
track legal bills for work on their
behalf by the JPA, instead
delegating bill oversight to the
agency’s staff...
