The Los Angeles Community College District Board of Trustees is accepting applications from individuals who are interest­ed in receiving a provisional appointment to the board. Applications are due not later than 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday, April 6.

All application materials must be submitted in hard copy format before the deadline to the LACCD Office of the General Counsel, 770 Wilshire Blvd.

The LACCD Board of Trustees will consider the applications and conduct public interviews during a meeting on Wednesday, April 13. At the meeting, it is anticipat­ed that the board will make a pro­visional appointment of a person to serve in District Seat 7 through Dec. 9.

Application information is available at laccd.edu, or by call­ing the general counsel’s office at (213)891-2188.

It is the responsibility of each applicant to ensure their complet­ed application packets are deliv­ered in hard copy format to the general counsel’s office before the stated deadline. The district is not responsible for any delays in receipt of application packets due to delivery services, mail or other circumstances. Applications will not be accepted after the deadline and also will not be accepted by phone, fax or email.

Applications must include responses to a questionnaire, a resume or curriculum vitae and other supporting materials that applicants may feel are relevant. The maximum amount of materi­als that may be submitted per applicant is ten single-sided pages. The required questionnaire and applicant information packet may be obtained by contacting the general counsel’s office.

It is also anticipated that on April 13 the board will call for an election on Nov. 8 for eligible voters to elect a person to take office on Dec. 9 to fill District Seat 7 for the remaining two years of the existing term through 2024.

Members of the LACCD Board of Trustees serve staggered, four-year terms. In 2020, elections were held for District Seats 1, 3, 5 and 7. In 2022, elections will be held for District Seats 2, 4 and 6 – plus for Seat 7, but only for the remaining two years.

The current vacancy exists for District Seat 7 because now-for­mer trustee Mike Fong was recently elected to the California State Legislature to represent Assembly District 49.

LACCD colleges include Los Angeles City College, East Los Angeles College, Los Angeles Harbor College, Los Angeles Mission College, Los Angeles Pierce College, Los Angeles Southwest College, Los Angeles Trade-Technical College, Los Angeles Valley College and West Los Angeles College.
