Summary

The bill adds three new sections to the Education Code that let governing boards declare district‑owned technology as surplus and dispose of it by auction, sealed bid, trade‑in, negotiated sale or donation. Before any disposal, boards must adopt policies covering need determination, competition, data security and fund‑use compliance, while also aiming to maximize value and reduce electronic waste. It applies to K‑12 districts, community college districts, and county offices of education.
