Board approves Proposition 2 facilities resolution, CTE grant MOU, CSEA tentative agreement and multiple recognition resolutions
Summary
The Redondo Beach Unified School District board on April 22 adopted several action items: a Proposition 2 facilities master plan resolution needed for state matching funds, a JPA memorandum for a CTE incentive grant (about $237,000), a tentative agreement with CSEA Chapter 57, a board compensation resolution tied to Education Code ($240/month), and multiple heritage‑month and appreciation resolutions; all motions passed in open session.
At its April 22 meeting the Redondo Beach Unified School District Board of Education adopted a bundle of action items covering facilities eligibility, career‑technical funding partnerships, labor negotiations, board compensation and a set of recognition resolutions.
Proposition 2 facilities master plan resolution (R242531) The board adopted Resolution R242531 to confirm the district’s updated facility master plan and satisfy new Proposition 2 requirements for eligibility in the state School Facility Program. District staff explained the updated master plan is a precondition for seeking state matching funds when the district files for assistance under that program.
CTE incentive grant memorandum of understanding (JPA) The board approved a memorandum of understanding to participate in a joint powers authority for the Career Technical Education Incentive Grant routed through SoCal ROC. District staff described the grant as providing roughly $237,000 to support CTE programs, with emphasis on middle‑school career exploration; staff clarified the funds come from the state via the consortium arrangement.
CSEA tentative agreement Trustees unanimously approved the 2024–25 tentative reopener agreement between the California School Employees Association (CSEA), Chapter 57, and RBUSD, concluding the district’s current negotiations for that bargaining unit for the year.
Board compensation (R242537) The board adopted Resolution R242537 to provide for board member compensation pursuant to California Education Code section 35120. Discussion clarified the stipend amount is listed as $240 per month and that the amount is determined by code by district enrollment tiering; board members said the stipend reimburses preparation and attendance time.
Recognition resolutions (R242532, R242538, R242539, R242533, R242534) Trustees also unanimously approved a set of recognition resolutions pulled for comment: a resolution recognizing May as Asian‑American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month; a resolution acknowledging April as Arab American Heritage Month; a resolution recognizing May as Jewish American Heritage Month; a resolution designating May 5–9 as National Teacher Appreciation Week; and a resolution recognizing May 18–24 as Classified School Employee Week.
Votes, procedure and next steps Most motions were moved, seconded, and adopted by voice vote with student advisory votes recorded; the meeting record notes the board passed the pulled resolutions and action items without recorded opposition. Administrative staff will proceed with the master plan submittal requirements when the district applies for School Facility Program funds and will complete the MOU steps needed to receive the CTE grant funds through the JPA.
Block‑level evidence for each action is included in the meeting record. For additional details (contract language, MOU terms, CSEA agreement text, or any budgetary allocations) the district’s administrative offices are the appropriate source; the board did not read full contract or MOU texts into the public minutes during open session.
