The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 6206, seeks to amend section 10-158a of the general statutes regarding the notice period required for a board of education to withdraw from cooperative arrangements with other boards of education. The bill stipulates that any board wishing to withdraw from such an agreement must now provide a notice period of three years, as opposed to the current requirement of one year.

This change aims to enhance stability and planning for educational boards engaged in cooperative arrangements, ensuring that all parties have adequate time to adjust to the withdrawal. The bill does not include any deletions from the existing law but introduces the new requirement for a three-year notice period.
