LAKEPORT – School district consolidation will once again be before the Board of Supervisors this Tuesday.

The board will meet beginning at 9 a.m. at the Lake County Courthouse, 255 N. Forbes St., Lakeport. TV Channel 8 will broadcast the meeting live.

On the agenda again this week is a proposed resolution supporting a feasibility task force by the Lake County Office of Education to explore school district consolidation in Lake County. The discussion is set to begin at 9:15 a.m.

The resolution had been set for consideration at last week's meeting, but was delayed because Lake County Superintendent of Schools Dave Geck could not attend.

The consolidation discussion first went to the board on Jan. 6. Businessman Lowell Grant asked the supervisors to help get the discussion started with a view to using thinning educational resources in the best way possible.
