Sen. Sidonore introduced Senate Bill 40 proposing that state delegations draw school board districts decennially to maintain a hybrid board of seven elected and four appointed members for Baltimore County; he framed the bill as a response to prior line-drawing he said raised Voting Rights Act concerns and said competing proposals at the county level make passage unlikely. He asked committee members to note the bill's history and intent.
