OUSD TRUSTEE RESIGNS
OUSD accepting applications until August 28th to fill
the Trustee Seat Provisionally
OUSD Trustee Diane Singer resigns after moving from
Trustee Area in Anaheim Hills
In a letter issued at the closing of her home in Anaheim
Hills on July 31, 2015 Orange Unified School District Trustee Diane Singer resigned
her seat on the OUSD Board of Trustees. Citing the desire to downsize, Singer in
a letter to the community announced that she and her husband had sold their
home and bought another home in Orange .
The Election By-Laws of OUSD require that a Trustee live in
the area that they represent-but they are elected by the whole district. Singer
represented Trustee Area 1 that centered on the Anaheim Hills areas of OUSD.
In a Press Release
from OUSD the following procedure was outlined:
"The Board of Education may either call a
special election or make a provisional appointment to fill the vacancy within
60 days. The District is seeking persons who are interested in serving on the
Board. A person appointed to fill the vacancy shall hold office until the next
regularly scheduled election, whereupon an election shall be held to fill the
remainder of the unexpired term.
The application/nomination period ends on August 28, 2015 at
4:00 pm
First elected in 2010, Singer faced no opponent in her reelection
bid in 2014 and was declared the winner by default. One of three women on the OUSD Board, Singer
and the other two women- Trustees Kathy Moffat and Dr. Alexia Deligianni-Brydeges-
often formed a minority voting block on the seven member board.
