With Gerald Lopez running for Alamo Colleges board, trustees hope to fill the board vacancy by late May.
In a 4-3 vote, Northside Independent School District trustees decided to seek applicants next month for an appointment to replace a departing board member until a special election next year. The decision turned down a request by the district’s employee union president to call a special election in November to fill the District 2 trustee seat being vacated by Gerald Lopez. Lopez plans to depart because he is running unopposed for an Alamo Colleges District board seat in May.
School security law frustrates local districts Board members said they didn’t want to leave the seat vacant and balked at the “ballpark” estimated cost of about $200,000 for a November special election on a ballot that also would include the presidential race. Trustees discussed a tentative timeline for applications by April 17, interviews by late April and an appointment and seating of a new trustee in May.
State law has schools cracking down on vaping Board President Bobby Blount and trustees Corinne Saldaña, Carol Harle and Karen Freeman supported an appointment process. Trustees Lopez, David Salcido and Karla Duran voted against it. The appointment will last until Northside’s next next regular board election in May 2025 when the last two years of the District 2 term can be decided as a special election and added to the three other seats on the ballot, Blount said.
