California AB1147 establishes a process for the State Department of Education to approve school district reorganizations.

California AB1147 introduces a new process for the State Department of Education to approve reorganizations of school districts. The bill allows for the transfer of territory from one school district to another under specific conditions, including that at least 95 percent of a city is within a single school district, there are no school facilities in the territory being transferred, and the city council has voted to petition for the change. The department can establish temporary financial remuneration requirements for these transfers.
