  SENATE BILL 92                                                               
                                                                               
       "An Act relating  to an  advisory vote during  regional                 
       educational attendance area school board elections; and                 
       providing for an effective date."                                       
                                                                               
  SENATOR FRED ZHAROFF stated that SB 92 would add a provision                 
  whereby  communities in REAA  school areas would  be able to                 
  voice their  positions on education via an  advisory vote on                 
  the regular school ballot.  He pointed out that REAA schools                 
  are spread over a wide area, and that  it is often difficult                 
  for members of those communities to attend board meetings in                 
                                                                               
                                6                                              
                                                                               
                                                                               
  order to make  their feelings known.   The bill would  allow                 
  the school board  to adopt a resolution  requesting that the                 
  advisory question be on the next  ballot.  He concluded that                 
  the Department of Education supports the legislation.
