Board Blocks Presentation of Teacher Demands at Lompoc Meeting
The Lompoc Unified School District board clashed with Norman Larson of the Lompoc Federation of Teachers over whether he could present salary and fringe benefit requests. Board chair Gail Steiger and Supt. Clarence Bloom argued the request was premature under SB 160, with the Winton Act still in effect and the Education Employe Relations Board to rule on timing. The session also covered tax concerns, planned equipment purchases, and district policy on public criticism as the community debated financing and future elections.
