Re:

Alleged Brown Act Violations

Dear Mr. Jungherr:

"

Our office represents the West Contra Costa Unified School District ("District"): .The District
received your May 6, 2015 letter and asked-that we respond on its behalf.'

in your'rviay 6 letter, 'you allege a violation ofthe Bro~'A~t based on '~ev~ralspectfic acisof the
District's Board of Education (,'Board") and demand a "cure 'and correct" reinedy fa/these ' . ,
alleged violations. For sake of clarity, we address the three points youraised in order and'
provide the District's response accordingly.
First, you allege the Board's "Special Meeting Agenda did not properly notice the consideration
of an independent forensic investigation of the bond program" and that such "consideration is not
a proper close[d] session item." However.jn compliance with Government Code section 54950
et seg. (the "Brown Act."), the District noticed and considered a personnel matter in closed
session. The April 29, 2015 agenda listed a closed session item as follows:
1.

PUBLIC EMPLOYEE DISCIPLINE/DISMISSALIRELEASE/COMPLAINT

(Government Code Section 54957)

(See also Exhibit A to your May 6 Letter.) Your letter cites to Exhibit D, a Contra Costa Times
article that references allegations or complaints against two District employees. The District
may meet in closed session to discuss certain enumerated topics, including consideration of
personnel matters. (Gov. Code 54957, subd.(b).) Otherwise,the Brown Actrequires "all
meetings of the legislative body of a local agency shall be openand public, 'and all persons shall ,
be permitted to attend any meeting of the legislative body of a 'local agency. : ." (Gov. Code
54953, subd. (a).) The District is not authorized to discuss what happens in closed session; as
you know those matters are confidential. (Gov. Code 54963\ Ultimately, should the Board
discuss or act upon matters such as the bond program or construction programs in general, or

retain a third party or other entity to investigate, please be assured that the District understands

which topics are appropriately considered in open session and follows those parameters. A
general statement of the Board's intent to act in the future is not a Brown Act violation.
Second, you allege "the April 29, 2015 minutes [sic] did not accurately record the action taken or
the vote on this matter," while "[t]he April 29, 2015 report of closed session action was
accurately recorded by Contra Costa Times ... " with reference to Exhibits Band C. In Exhibit
B, you appear to highlight the following text:
Report/Ratification of Closed Session
President Groves reported that the Board of Education will establish an independent
investigation and have findings reported back to the Board upon completion.
For comparison, you highlight the following text from Exhibit C, the Contra Costa Times article:
"As a board, we are committed to pursuing an independent forensic examination of the
issues raised in the complaint and we have set forth a process to do so," Board President
Todd Groves said Wednesday, after a closed session meeting to discuss an undisclosed
employee complaint. "And the public will be hearing much more about it moving
forward."
It appears you allege as a Brown Act violation the absence of the word "forensic" in the
District's April 29, 2015 minutes. The Brown Act does not address the accuracy of minutes or
even mention minutes, so this issue cannot be a Brown Act concern. Regardless, even if we
were to accept the allegation on its face that there was a concern, the party complaining of the
action must show prejudice. (Cohen v. City of Thousand Oaks (1994) 30 Cal.App.4th 547.)
There is no showing of prejudice due to the absence or presence of the term "forensic." The
District disputes your allegation that the description of the action taken on April 29, 2015
violated the Brown Act.
Third, you allege that "[a]t the May 6, 2015 Board meeting action was taken to amend the April
29,2015 minutes to add additional information in regards to this independent forensic
examination that was not reported at the April 29, 2015 closed session." But the action taken at
the May 6, 2015 meeting you cite took place in a public meeting and was properly noticed as
follows:

B.10 WCCUSD Public Comment

Anton Jungherr

(Emphasis added.) To the extent this allegation speaks to your belief that the Brown Act
violation relates to the failure to include the term "forensic," we direct you to the District's
response above. Moreover, the Board's subsequent action to include the term "forensic"
provides even more detail than required under the Brown Act.
In conclusion, the District disagrees with the allegations of violations of the Brown Act raised in
your May 6 letter. The Board does not intend at this time to take any action, as there is nothing
to cure and correct.
Sincerely,
LOZANO SMITH

President and Members of the
West Contra Costa Unified School District
Board of Trustees
1108 Bissell Avenue
Richmond, CA 94801
DEMAND FOR CURE OR CORRECTION; ALLEGED VIOLATION
OF BROWN ACT
This letter is to call to your attention to what I believe was a substantial
violation of a central provision of the Ralph M. Brown Act, which may
jeopardize the finality of the action, taken by the Board of Trustees of the
West Contra Costa Unified School District (WCCUSD) at a Special Meeting
on April 29, 2015.
The nature of the violations are as follows:
The April 29, 2015 Special Meeting Agenda did not properly notice
the consideration of an independent forensic examination of the bond
program. See Exhibit A. This was a violation of the Brown Act.
The consideration of an independent forensic examination is not a
proper close session item. This was a violation of the Brown Act.
The April 29, 2015 did not accurately record the action taken or the
vote on this matter. See Exhibit B. This is a violation of the Brown
Act.
The April 29, 2015 report of closed session action was accurately
recorded by Contra Costa Times reporter Theresa Harrington in her
video posted on the newspaper's website and in her April 29, 2015
article. See Exhibit C.
At the May 6, 2015 Board meeting action was taken to amend the
April 29, 2015 minutes to add additional information in regards to
this independent forensic examination that was not reported at the
end of the April 29, 2015 closed session. This was a violation of the
Brown Act.

Brown Act Requirements:

"The intent and purpose of the Brown Act 1 is to ensure the actions (of local
legislative bodies) are taken openly and that their deliberations be conducted
openly." 2
The Brown Act provides that the public have the right to an agenda that
contains a brief description of each item of business to be transacted. 3 The
description of agenda items must not be misleading.
"In Carlson v. Paradise Unified School District (1971) 18 Cal.App.3d 196,
the court, commenting on the specificity required for a school board agenda,
provided: [I]t is imperative that the agenda of the board's business be made
public in some detail so that the general public can ascertain the nature of
such business. It is a well-known fact that public meetings of local
governing bodies are sparsely attended by the public at large, unless an issue
vitally affecting their interests is to be heard. To alert the general public to
such issues, adequate notice is a requisite." 4
The Brown Act provides that action taken in permissible closed session
should be reported to the public as soon as the action is taken. Brown Act
requires the body to report all actions taken in closed session and the vote or
abstention of every member present.
Background:
On April 22, 2015 Dennis Clay, an employee of the District, sent a CD of
documents pertaining to the 2014 Performance Audit to the School Board.
He also gave these documents to the Grand Jury. See Exhibit D.
The Board responded to these documents during the April 29, 2015 closed
seSSIOn.

Brown Act Remedy:

The Brown Act allows the legal remedy of judicial invalidation of illegally
taken action. Pursuant to Government Code Section 54960.1, I demand that
the Board of Trustees cure or correct the illegally taken action as follows:
formal and explicit withdrawal from any commitment made, coupled with
disclosure at a subsequent public meeting of the reasons why individual
members of the Board of Trustees took the position that they did, release to
the public all documents supporting the April 29, 2015 meeting action with
full opportunity for informed comment by members of the public at the same
meeting, notice of which is properly included on the posted agenda.
As provided by Section 54960.1, you have 30 days from the receipt of this
demand to either cure or correct the challenged action, or inform me of your
decision not to do so. If you fail to cure or correct as demanded, I am
entitled to seek judicial invalidation of the action pursuant to Section
54960.1, in which case I would seek the award of court costs and reasonable
attorney fees pursuant to Section 54960.5.

CBOC. I am sending them to VOU, and will trust that it will find its way to the CBOC. I
plan on giving a copy to senior staff of the District tomorrow.

If you have any questions about anything contained therein, Iam sure Luis Freese,
Lisa LeBlanc, and Mark Bonnett will be wilHng to help. And of course, Iwill be
available to answer any questions members of the Board or District staff may have.
Thank you for patience. I know you are busy people and this is highly irregular.
Thanks.
